Overall Ratings & Reviews KAMENOI HOTEL NACHI KATSUURA KUMANO KODO

Very nice place to stay

Staff was very welcoming prior to check in and the effort to converse with us in English was very much appreciated as we knew limited Japanese. They made sure to notify us of all their available amenities and we were lucky to join one of their star gazing events the night we had stayed their that was led by cafe owners nearby. The meals they serve were wonderfully presented as they shared details of what was provided and the rooms were spacious. The location was near the station and walking distance from the beach. Definitely a wonderful location if you plan to do more outdoor activities with Nachi Falls a bus ride away, and the beach within walking distance.

Absolutely wonderful. The Onsen was amazing, the view into the bay was awesome, and breakfast and dinner were both delicious. Would stay again easily.

A wonderful stay

Overall it was a pleasant stay ( just stayed one night) Beautiful view of the sea, large rooms. *my only disappointment was that when we wanted to go for dinner at the hotel restaurant we were told we had to book it a day in advance ( nothing was ever mentioned about this on the Expedia site ) so I don’t blame the hotel, I blame Expedia. So if you are booking this hotel and want to eat at the restaurant, make sure you do so in advance. Luckily there was a charming/ excellent family restaurant across the street called Tairyou ( I highly recommended it ;)

Worth staying here!

Quiet location which suited us

We opted for a private onsen in the room. The private onsen was outdoor wtih a shower and faucet, making it uncomfortable in the cold to shower and wash before soaking in the onsen. There were no inside shower or bath in my unit. Adjacent to the outdoor bath is a path, not sure whether it is for the public or garden care. Either way, my wife was dismayed when someone walked along the path. Hotel room is somewhat outdated. Need renovation. We had dinner and breakfast for 2 nights and food was good but not exciting.

booked to visit the waterfall & World Heritage sites, which were sublime, and we equally enjoyed the hotel experience. gorgeous lobby felt like a mossy forest. we had beautiful ocean & mountain view from room & from onsen. the meals were a taste of Japan prepared especially for our vegetarian diets, which we sincerely appreciated. there were dance performances that we did not expect that were a treat. & the short walk around the coastal corner to see an island torii gate was a cherry on top. I don’t know if we will ever be back in this part of the world, but dream of returning & would book this hotel again. friendly staffthank you so much!

This property had so many good amenities. There was a free coffee bar, a free ramen bar and a beautiful onsen

The room is very spacious, nice private onsen next to the ocean, under a wonderful starry night. Half-board dinner and breakfast were delicious. Check-in and check-out were quick and easy.

We loved the Kaiseki dinner! The onsen was also nice and the breakfast the next day was lovely!

We had an ocean view room and that was fantastic. Staff were always helpful and kind.

This property is very elegant and gives a true onsen and ryokan experience. Food was delicious too. Easy 8 min walk from Kii Katsura station

Excellent onsen hotel experience. Very comfortable room and excellent food at the restaurant. Not much to do in the town, but hotel is great. Walking distance to Kii Katsuura train station.

We had a 9th floor suite with a personal hot springs tub on the deck. We had gorgeous views and the biggest suite I have ever been in. You can spend your entire visit in their robes in the hotel or you can see the nearby Nachi Waterfall. The traditional Japanese included meals were a lot of fun and also had views of the water. We didn’t check out the shared hot springs, but I bet those were nice too as so many people seem to come for them. I would recommend this to anyone! I celebrated my birthday here and splurged! It was perfect!

Good location

The property needs refurbishment to be properly considered as 4 star.

Overall stay is comfortable and pleasant. The property is a little old, but is well kept. Nice and quiet in the neighborhood which give us a beautiful relax day.

old style hotel currently undergoing renovation. restaurant serve nice food but seemed short staffed.
