The hotel has a fantastic location right across from Wakayama Castle, making for some beautiful views. The rooms are comfortable and of a good size, but I found the twin room to be a better choice than the Wakayama Castle view room due to space. The service was polite and welcoming, but the location is a bit far from the JR station, which might be inconvenient with heavy luggage. Overall, I felt it was a decent value for money.
