Pleasant and happy stay

This was a very pleasant and happy place to stay. It was very much akin to a German or Austrian pension. The sauna was very nice after a long hike, and it was right in front of the river where you can also soak in thermals. The dinner was excellent, although one had to walk a long distance to reach this location from Kumano Hongu Taisha.

Warm Home

Pension Ashitanomori were welcoming and warm. The bedroom was cosy. The baths had everything we needed. The location is ideal for experiencing Kawayu Onsen. Special mention for the food - Pension Ashitanomori made sure we were always satisfied and fueled for our journey.

Love love loved this place!

This was my fave stay on the KK! It was right opposite the Kawayu onsen in the river at the senninburo (this was on Dec 15th). Plus I used the personal onsen in the pension. The staff were super friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend choosing all 3 meals to be provided at the place. The bento box lunch was delicious and I'm glad I was able to add it on last minute the night before. You also get a yukata provided for your use.

The owner was kind and helpful. The meals were just alright. The place needs to be refreshed. Unfortunately there was some construction work on the river which prevented me to enjoy the natural outdoor onsen.

Thanks for the hospitality, and the recommendation for the restaurant in Kii-Katsuura. We had a good rest in the guest house.
