Kiri-no-Sato Takahara Lodge

Arriving at this accommodation in the mist and rain was absolutely magical. We had a wonderful time chatting with the staff and the owner. The meals were delicious and generous, and the rooms and baths were spotless, functional, yet traditional: a true journey in itself.

Best Stay of the Kumano Kodo

This was our favorite stay of the entire trek. Beautiful mountain views from all of the rooms and main area. Amazing, multiple course meals and unlimited morning coffee with access to the sunny balcony seating to look out over the mountains. It was even pretty in the evening when it rained. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The only stars I docked were for the baths- the public bath/showers incredibly clean but the bath was only lukewarm which was disappoint - maybe just a fluke. Otherwise perfect.

Great start; awesome views

This place had so much personality; there is nothing to not love. The views from the room and also the outside lounge area were amazing.

Experiência inesquecível!!

Gostamos demais deste local, desde a recepção, acomodação e restaurante. Mas o que mais nos agradou foram a dedicação das pessoas que trabalham lá, muito amáveis, dou nota 1000!!!!

automated translation: We absolutely loved this place – from the reception and accommodation to the restaurant. But what impressed us most was the dedication of the staff; they were so friendly – I’d give them 1000 out of 1000!!!!

A warm welcome on the Kumano Kodo

Kiri-no-sato is a beautiful accommodation, filled with traces of past pilgrims—drawings, photographs, stickers, and objects from all over the world. It has a bit of the Camino de Santiago spirit, but with Japanese flavors, scents, and hospitality. The owner is incredibly friendly and makes guests feel at ease, and he speaks very good English.
