Ryokan Adumaya

Really surprised by the two recent poor reviews of this place. Perhaps room type makes a difference? But, for us, this was an incredible experience in every way possible. We stayed in the room called "Ichii", a Deluxe Room with its own ensuite outdoor hot spring bath (there are large public baths here as well, indoor and out). The meals were phenomenal. The first night's meal was a full, multi-course kaiseki with the most delicious, locally-raised Mi-kumano beef shabu-shabu I have EVER eaten (melts in your mouth like butter!). Bedding was traditional, very plush and comfy, on-the-floor futons. Breakfast was also traditional and very hearty. The outdoor public bath was lovely. The service provided by the employees could not have been better. We paid ¥290,400 or about $1.916 for four people, two nights or about $240 per person per night, breakfasts and dinners included. We felt it was WELL worth the price.

We stayed here for one night on our Kumano Kodo hike and it was the worst place we stayed. The staff was friendly and attentive and the food was good, however the building was horrible. The place smelled of mold and mildew. The hallways had big chunks of paint peeling off, there was visible mold on the walls, the carpet was coming up and was dirty. The onsen felt dirty and slimy. I would not recommend staying here until the place has been thoroughly cleaned and refurbished.

rather filthy place where i stayed at during my Kumano Kodo hike. they need urgently to replace carpets and uplift the place Price/value is not at all ok at that place - it was the most expensive accommodation i had during those 5 nights but it‘s not worth it. Btw: same goes for the food. was nothing special and as you eat in your room by yourself you can‘t even ask when you have questions.

Excellent stay after Kumano Kodo hiking. Futon very comfortable. They helped in transporting lugages to room. Excellent, plenty, very tasty dinner, also breakfast. I forgot a fleece jacket, they contacted our travel agent in Athens to find me, they sent it next day to my Osaka hotel (with very reasonable courier cost). Fleece was nicely packed with a complimentary card included. Thank you for hospitality, very friendly personnel.

このお宿を選んだ理由は「加温・加水なしの源泉そのまま」の温泉があるからでした。 そして、期待をうらぎらない、まるで湯もみされたような滑らかなやさしい温泉でした。 設備は古いですが、丁寧にメンテナンスされて受け継がれた感じがします。お食事もなまずの煮つけなど珍しいお料理もあり、適度な量でお味もよく満足しました。 　昭和ノスタルジックなお部屋でお食事をいただくのは、よき時代の贅沢さを感じました。駐車場は民宿あずまやさんのほうになるので、先に荷物を降ろしてから駐車場にいくのがおすすめです。　スタッフの皆さんも親切で気持ちよく過ごせました。　３月でしたが夜は冷えるので、カイロなど持っていくのがおすすめです。　私たち以外は外国人客とききましたが、思ったより大きなお宿で静かに過ごせました。
