Within the city, I stayed one night at Dormy Inn Premium Wakayama Hot Spring, one of the few hotels in the city that has the capability to house foreign travelers. Staff members can speak English quite well and are able to help on transport matters. The hotel is just a 7 minute walk from Wakayama Station. Facilities include an onsen bath as well as complimentary supper in the form of noodles in late evening.

I stayed at the Wakayama Dormy Inn. Dormy Inn is a nationwide chain of business hotels, many of which have hot springs. I’ve actually stayed at a few for work, and they are really nice.
So nice, in fact, that I had a bit of a problem.
My plan was to check in around 4pm, take a quick bath, and take a nap for a couple hours before heading off for some local sake and food. I even found this great writeup of local izakayas. A little jizake (local sake) and a little jizakana (local fish). Nothing too crazy, and then back to the hotel for another soak in the onsen and a full night’s rest.
But I was more tired than I thought (I flew at 7:00am that morning) and the hot springs plus two and a half bowls of ramen knocked me out. I slept until 4:30am the next day.
That’s life! At least I was up in time for a tasty breakfast of local Wakayama specialties at the Dormy Inn.太刀魚 – Hairtail, a kind of fish caught locally. Labeled at the restaurant as Splinter Fish, though I can’t ind any info about it. Japanese fish often don’t have common names in English. This one was very soft and was great over rice. 紀州うめどり – Local chicken raised on a diet of pickled plum. This special feed is meant to make the meat more tender. 鯨の竜田揚げ – Whale meat braised in soy sauce and deep fried. Wakayama and the surrounding waters still have a strong connection to whaling. めはり寿司 – Seasoned rice balls wrapped in mustard leaf.
