"安いお値段で宿泊できた上に、お部屋は清潔で広く、バルコニーやテーブルまで付いており、トイレ・バスまで分かれていたのでとてもコスパ良いと感じました。また、フロントには絆創膏や熱さまシート、生理用品、海辺で使えそうな折りたたみ椅子などもサービスとして常備されていましたし、カードゲームなどの貸出も行っており、お部屋で楽しめるアイテムも揃っていました。荷物だけお預かりさせて頂こうと思いチェックイン前に訪ねましたが、お部屋が準備できていたらしく、早めのチェックインもさせて頂きました。スタッフも気さくで優しい人が多いと感じました。白浜に来た際には是非再利用したいホテルでした。"

"Whole hotel looks like it was good 20 years ago and someone just forgot to do anything with it since. We booked a non smoking room but when we entered the room the smoke was so heavy I could taste it and there were burn marks all over the carpet. We asked to be moved and got a new room which smellt like a mixture of smoke and peppermint airfreshener to hide it. At least in this room it was still manageable. Stains in the carpet but bedlinnen and bathroom were clean. Personell was friendly...

Top Wakayama Prefecture Hotel Reviews

Grand Mercure Wakayama Minabe Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"While our stay at this location was short, it was fantastic. They have put in quite a bit of work to make the hotel clean and well taken care of, they rent electric assist bicycles to get to town for groceries or exploring. My family loved the hot springs. Laundry onsite. Beautiful beach nearby, although not great for swimming or snorkeling it was very pretty, quiet, and private. Staff is incredibly helpful. They sell packages that include breakfast and dinner, but not lunch. The buffets are HUGE with tons of food and drink options. I 100% would stay here again."
