New and well-kept hotel with spacious Japanese rooms with a large window and relaxing view. Hotel very clean both in the rooms and in the shared bathrooms. The internal onsen is small, but comfortable and well-kept, fantastic for relaxing. Both breakfast and dinner are very good and served with care, the quality of the food is excellent. The owners are very kind, very helpful and ready to solve any problem. The hotel is quiet and located very close to both the town center and the bus stop. It is a great place to stay, highly recommended for resting especially for those who, like me, were walking the Kumano Kodo path.

Perfect location, close to the bus stop, Kumano Kodo and Hongu Taisha. Places to eat and Cafes are a short walk away as well as a Post Office which has ATMs. The house is a home from home, well equipped, comfortable, nicely designed and clean. There is a hot and cold water station in the kitchen as well as a stock of snacks, carefully selected catering for all tolerances. There is even a separate laundry room, where I quite happily washed and dried. What sets this place from the rest is the consideration that has gone into everything to ensure that your stay is as comfortable and as pleasant as possible, which in it self, reflects the thoughtfulness and kindness of the host. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The property was wonderful, beautiful traditional Ryokan, clean rooms, lovely onsen. The staff is polite, nice, and welcoming. They pay attention to small details which I think is really beautiful. Very big and delicious dinner and breakfast. The location is perfect as well, close to the bus station that connects you to other villages and small places. Hope to come back again soon and a big thank you to everyone at Ryokan Adumaya. Arigato gozaimasu.

I did not stay in Hongu but spent time there when I stayed at Yunomine Onsen and visited the Hongu Taisha mae Shrine. It is a small town with some nice restaurants, small shops, and the main bus stop for the area.

part of the kumano kodo must do destination !

part of the kumano kodo must do destination ! it is a wonderful location with the shrine, a zen building of the heritage center and the torii gate, which also act as a bus stop too. The bus system is inadequate for so many visitors. I understand it is in a rural part of the Japanese town, but i am sure the bus company can regulate and insert a couple more bus departures during peak time. Surely they would have collected a historical data of peak passengers timing by now since this kumano kodo has been around for so long. So that it can provide a better service for the hikers

Hongu, Watarase, Kawayu & the surrounding area is hands down one of THE almighty best in Japan — and Japan has lots of amazing places. it's very easy to spend 3 days or more based out of this area & then driving around to amazing waterfalls, ravines, hot springs, cultural spots, mountain vistas, abandoned elementary school, etc. etc. unbeaten japan can take you there so do not hesitate to reach out.

Beautiful farming town, with a few scattered shops to ease hunger. Local shop owners were accommodating and kind. City tourism center was closed but the bathroom remained open for guests. We were only passing through to Koguchi but it was a charming stop.
