 Description

Hongu Guest House near Kohechi

Guesthouse Hatenashi offers comfortable Western-style rooms near the Kohechi route in Hongu Village. The owner moved to live in the Kumano area from Osaka with his family and open up an accommodation. He also runs the nearby Japanese-style rental house "Guest House Shitanoie." While Guesthouse Hatenashi is located away from central Hongu and onsen hot spring onsen areas (Yunomine, Kawayu, Watarase), there are local busses from Hongu Taisha-mae bus stop. There are no meals offered at the accommodation, but there is a shared kitchen, and a supermarket is conveniently located nearby. It is a great, simple option for Kumano Kodo Kohechi hikers.

◆Note◆
The owner will send check-in instructions after reservation confirmation and payment are complete.

They give us a bed for two when I asked two twin beds. We couldn’t complain because there was nobody at reception . Even though, the accomodation is good and nice and comfortable is out of the trail of Kumano Kodo .

Accommodation on KUMANO kodo

When booking the accommodation it stated that a shuttle service was available, however we could not contact the property, in fairness it is only a short bus ride away. ( maybe the information on what bus to catch would be helpful) There is a supermarket right next door. Facilities at the property were quite adequate and it was spotlessly clean. Apart from the non existent shuttle it was a good place to stay.

Vegetarianism and gluten free foods are not common in the Japanese countryside. Please double-check the meal options that are possible with each service provider to make sure that it meets your needs.

FISH STOCK: Often being able to eat trace amounts of the ubiquitous Katsuo Dashi (fish stock) makes it easier to find vegetarian options.

GLUTEN: For those who are not intorelant to gluten or Celiac then choosing Gluten Free "With Miso and Soy Sauce" will increase your options.
