Booked for large bed to share with small kids but ended up barely a double bed size and smelly. Request for changing to a twin bed room but became a room upgrade (extra fee); almost got charged for child breakfast at check out even it should be included with room fee, luckily the manager checked and waived at last.. Upside is it’s really close to fish market and there’s hot spring coupon.

Nice and Convenient Spot”

The hotel has a very good sea view. Next to the hotel is a hot fountain spring since the hotel does not have one itself, you need to walk over to the next door for it, free entrance for the hotel resident. Theme park and seafood/fish market is very close to the hotel where kids can enjoy the ride and people can enjoy the fresh seafood/fish BBQ. Free parking is provided from the hotel but the vehicular entrance is very small without any eye catching signage, I have missed the entrance for my first time on arrival personally.

Wakayama city hotel is located in a very secluded spot overlooking the sea near the Kuroshio market. The hotel is clean, big rooms with a separate shower and toilet. Breakfast spread was fabulous, the only snag is the buses back to hotel from jr wakayama station stops their service at 8pm. You have to take a local train back to JR Kainan station , which is the nearest & hop on a taxi back to the hotel. For those who like a bit of calm & serenity, this will be a good choice..not forgetting very courteous staff .

Definitely not worth the price”

I got to my room and noticed the couch was covered in stains and the bed smelt musty/moldy. They changed my room, however the second room had the same problems, but not as bad. For the price, this hotel is definitely not worth it. Also, it’s location basically forces you to eat at their restaurants which are expensive and don’t have many options (the breakfast was good). Pros: includes free entry to a nice onsen close by and the friendliness of the staff.

The rooms, equipped with huge windows, have amazing views of the garden and the sea. Japan's pride-- the onsen/spa is just a 2-min walk away.

I think the hotel refurbished when i’m staying with them. The rooms and bathtub and everything is so clean and new. Also, they were having a 3 months Christmas Market or something, which have beautiful lightings, and we received tickets for free during our stay! It was fantastic and we love it so much staying in Marina City Hotel! We did not go to city center as we just wanted to enjoy the view and breeze for the 2 nights. Also enjoying our free onsen every night. Everything is just walking distance! Kuroshio Market, fruits market, amusement park...

But the hotel is far from city, if u not drive for the trip, then I am not suggest.
