We debated between the convenience of being close to a train station and a view of the castle. So very happy to have chosen the view of the castle. Combined with the hospitality of the staff we very much enjoyed our stay in Wakayama. This hotel, and the view of the castle, made for a relaxing time.

Excellent location right on the bus line. Close to Wakayama Station and right across the street from the castle. Pay for a room on the castle side. It is worth it for the beautiful view. The rooms are very spacious, service is excellent, the entire property is well maintained and spotless. Even the self-serve laundry is great!

The view from the hotel of the Wakayama castle is stunning, especially at night, when the castle is lit up! Walking the castle park in the morning was wonderful. Parking was in a building next door, 1000¥/day with easy in and out privileges, and lots of parking.
I am a big fan of Daiwa Roynet, having stayed at 4 different locations this year—good locations, great staff, clean and well designed rooms. 👍

Awful

We had an absolute unpleasant stay at this hotel. The staff was rude during check in, room was filthy which we found snack leftovers on the carpet; hair and soap left in the bathtub. The hotel design was very old and outdated, smell was awful with a real strong smell of cigarette. The worst thing I’ve encountered was that I requested for an additional pillow, the staff on the phone claimed that they didn’t have any pillows in this hotel and hung up right after saying that. Comparing to the other Daiwa Roynet hotels in other cities around Japan, this was awful and I would not ever recommend anyone to stay.

Decent hotel near to the Wakayama Castle

Hotel location is not near the Wakayama Station but is just situated right opposite the Wakayama Castle. It is about 5-8 mins taxi ride to the station and cost not more than 800 Yen to travel there. Comfortable stay though pillow is a little too soft for me. Good breakfast and within walking distance to a few good restaurants.

I’m a fan of this hotel chain

Have stayed at another Daiwa Roynet once before so am familiar with this hotel chain. The Daiwa Roynet Wakayama did not disappoint. It is located above a small shopping complex ( front desk accessed via elevator to 5th floor) and across from Wakayama’s main point of interest, the castle. Would recommend a room on a higher floor with a castle view. Would also definitely recommend getting the breakfast (which is a delicious Japanese/Western buffet ) ! We are independent travelers who accessed the hotel from KIX via the airport limousine bus to JR Wakayama train station then a short taxi ride.
If you are solo, the double room is fine. Would strongly recommend a 2 bed twin room for two people though, as it is a bit more spacious. ( we have stayed in both types ) This is not a luxury hotel. However it is a great for business or pleasure, very practical with everything one needs. FYI, there is a Family Mart convenience store on 1st level of the shopping complex and a great Japanese restaurant next to it.

Very pleasant stay - loved the massage chair

Nice new hotel. Booked a castle view room and the massage chair in the room was a nice (unexpected) plus!

A little far away from the train station (1.8km) but walkable on a cool night. JPY700 by taxi if you have luggage. Bus stop in front of the hotel goes to the train station or Marina City. And only about a block away from Ramen Marui.

Staff were really helpful with bus schedules to get around and having a 24 hour Family Mart within the building is really convenient.

Stylish hotel in the heart of Wakayama City, only minutes walk from restaurants and the famous Wakayama Castle. There's a 24 hour convenience store outside the front door which is handy. Some great ramen & Okonomiyaki restaurants nearby too, especially Wadada (Kaya) and Koutarou Ramen.
We traveled as a family of 4 and the triple room was great, clean, modern and spacious enough for us.

Felt like a 5 star experience

I was pleasantly surprised with our stay. It was much nicer than I had expected and with the included breakfast buffet that had so many choices from something western to eating like a Japanese person would with local fruits and dishes. The room was comfortable and clean and with a castle view... highly recommended. There were nice restaurants in the building and we were close to many things including a bus stop to get around if taxis aren't in your budget. Wakayama city is a very different experience from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo and Osaka and even Kyoto. It's not a touristy place for foreigners so maybe you can have a more authentic view of Japan from here.

Enjoy night and day view of castle, that's the reason I stayed at this hotel. 240yen bus fare, bus stop just in front of the hotel, within 1 min walk. Room is quite nice, reasonable price, clean. There are some restaurants in the same building of the hotel. I tried one Japanese restaurant, that's fine.
