Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Hongu

House is very nice, owner is super friendly and welcoming

Exceptional staff were polite and helpful. All the staff spoke excellent English. Onsen was large and clean.

I was so fortunate to choose Guesthouse Yui to spend over a week doing Kumano Kodo and stay for Christmas. I used it as a base to walk the Nakahechi route, catching the bus to/from the trail each day, as required. Staying at Guesthouse Yui made all this much easier and more enjoyable. The owner-operator Sanae-san is such a welcoming and caring host. She made my stay like a home-away-from-home. I had the tatami room nearest the entrance which was spacious, clean and warm. I made use of the common area for writing, emailing, watching TV. I was fortunate to be there during a slower time which made it not so busy, apparently. Regardless, Sanae-san put on a hot pot for 4 of us guests one night which was superb. The shower/bath facilities at the guesthouse are very good but I didn't use these much as there is an excellent community public bath a 5 minute walk away (and only 200 yen!). Mad if you don't use it. Kumano Hongo Taisha bus stop and the "town centre" is a 5 minute walk away. Here the dining options are good but very few. Sanae provides full use of the kitchen with stove, rice cooker, microwave etc if you want to cook. She also provides basic items such as beer, packet rice etc to purchase. I highly recommend Iwatani-san's Ramen restaurant on Monday and Tuesday nights, and Miyazushi the other nights.

Owner was so kind and helpful. The room was spacious and the whole accomodation well-equipped.uch better than expected for this price. Walkimg distance from Kamikura jinja and Hayatama Taisha, bus stop close. Evwn arranged SUP for us.

Fantastic location. Ate at three different local restaurants, all excellent and all within a one minute walk. Loved Pico’s bar downstairs. Tons of fun, great atmosphere. Pico was very welcoming and helpful. Apartment very comfortable, clean and cozy. A wonderful place to stay.
