Simply put - the two cave onsen at this hotel are fantastic. And indeed, there are several other onsen pools to choose from too. I was lucky to go when the sea was quite rough, and sitting at the front of the cave onsen, soaking in the hot spring while watching the waves breaking on the rocks outside was a really soul satisfying experience. The hotel itself is like a wild bubble-era project and is simply huge with plenty to explore. It was hard to take it all in - I was really absorbed just wandering around. The (seemingly) endless escalator ride up to the adjoining hotel block was a bit unique to try too. There is a helpful mini-bus and turtle themed ferry to and from the town centre ( only 10 minutes walk from station to ferry / bus) and it runs frequently. Can’t say there there were many dining options within the hotel itself, the breakfast and evening buffet are just fine plus two extra small cafe style casual restaurants on-site. No bar or coffee shop ( but you can sit in and eat snacks / coffee at the on-site Lawsons convenience store. Nothing gourmet - come for the onsen, not for dining. (though some decent small dining places in town if you wish to hop over on the ferry and back) The room was huge with a nice sea view in our case. Futon style sleeping was comfortable. Everything clean and working. All in all - lovely! I and my wife had a very memorable break here.

The cave onsens are wonderful and we loved our breakfast looking out at the rocky coast and crashing waves at breakfast. The hotel is a 1960s throw-back and well-maintained and very reasonably priced. Great hiking on Kumano Kodo nearby and sightseeing.

This hotel was amazing. A sprawling property built into the side of a mountain. So many onsen. The cave onsen were spectacular. There were many restaurants, convenience store, shops and an arcade.

For those who are looking to luxuriate in the onsens of the Kii península… This is a place not to be missed. The cave onsens, especially, were both gorgeous and healing… The other ones perhaps a bit rundown, but still quite a treat. The staff were great (and multi-lingual) and my room was squeaky clean. Highly recommend

Last year I tried their wonderful onsen that faces the sea. It was fantastic. When I returned to Japan, I made reservations at this hotel and upgraded to a room that had an ocean view. It was fantastic. The room included a half board which is breakfast and dinner. Staff are helpful. The room was very clean and quiet.

Mixed feelings on this hotel. Paid for a nice room that was non smoking but the room was constantly filled with smoke air which was coming from a vent in the ceiling. The smoke was so bad that I felt sick most of the night and even 24 hours later throat hurts. The hotel was no very accommodating or apologetic. No discount. No concessions. I did not sleep but maybe 4 hours first night. Was a real hassle and disrupted a time where I had meant to sleep and relax. Had to pack my stuff up and move but Also sit in the smoke filled room for 2 hours waiting for other room. Love hot springs but the smoke room was not ok. Unhappy they didn’t offer any discount. Be cautions when booking here. It’s a gamble.
