A former inn located on a hill with the remains of an old castle in Wakayama, Shirahama, and Kumano Kodo. Up to 5 people. Toilet, spacious barrier-free bath

Founded in 1957, my grandfather, Eiichi Tanuchi, ran an inn called Aiwasho for the cultural development of Tanabe City, Wakayama Prefecture. In order to continue to protect its history and traditions, his granddaughter, Kiushuko, reopened the inn under its original name in 2021. Built on the site of Ueno Castle, this inn is a traditional Japanese house with tatami mats on the floor. Please relax in one of the two Japanese-style rooms. The inn is located on a hill overlooking the city of Tanabe, so you can enjoy the morning sun, sunset, and night view. On a calm day, we recommend having tea in a wicker chair on the edge of the hinoki cypress wooden deck, which was made in the image of the moon viewing platform of the Katsura Imperial Villa. The newly installed bath and toilet are spacious and barrier-free, so you can bathe together or use them easily even if you need assistance. We installed popin.aladdin (lighting with projector) in one of the Japanese-style rooms. It projects on the sliding doors You can watch TV, music, movies, etc. Enjoy BGM on YouTube before you go out in the morning. My parents, Kisaku and Shuko Tanai (Japanese), live next to the house, so please let me know if you need anything.

A quiet inn full of sunlight, 10 minutes on foot from Kumano Hongu Taisha Shrine and the hot springs! The perfect inn for the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage and cycling

HanaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Super friendly host and very charming old Japanese-style house. Cooking in the outdoor kitchen was a fun experience! The cluttered outdoor area added to the charm of the place and Eiko-san, and inside the house it was tidy and fairly clean!:) The area is super quiet and you can hear lots of birds, overall a very relaxing place. Eiko-san also has lots of good recommendations for nearby activities! However, if you’re a tall person - like my boyfriend - be aware that the doors are made for smaller Japanese people back in the day… lots of head bumping and headache potential if not careful! Since the bathroom is fairly small I went for a bath in a nearby bathhouse, a very short walk and very very affordable.

A modern water closet is positioned against a backdrop of warm wooden paneling. The bidet features a control panel, and a small washbasin is integrated above the toilet. Nearby, a decorative plant is displayed in a slender holder, enhancing the functionality of the space.

Thank you so much Mei He!Communicated with me before check-in and recommended restaurants! We were a little late to check in, she knew I wouldn't speak Japanese and used a translator to communicate with me, took us to a great hot spring to watch the sunset, the hot spring was very clean and comfortable!!After the hot spring, he drove us to a nearby Osaka yakiniku shop (Grandma's Osaka yakiniku was delicious!!I've been gone for three or four days and I still can't forget it). Mihari's cat is cute and follows her everywhere!Meiwa showed me a lot of pictures of cats! Very happy! When we learned that we were going to climb the mountain in Kii-Katsuura the next day, we were given a lot of advice ~ I'm glad to tell Meiwa that we completed the entire mountain climbing journey!(Please see the last picture hahahaha (We originally planned to leave at 9:00, Meiwa told me that it would be late to return to Osaka, we followed her advice and adjusted to 7:00!I'll be back in Osaka by 7pm!Thank you very much~ Unfortunately, Yamato in Kii-Katsuura was not open that day, I really wanted to try the tuna that was highly recommended by Miwa! It was a very good experience!Thank you, Meihe!I'll stay here again if I come back next time!
