Nanki-Shirahama Marriott Hotel
"The staff were wonderful in general. They helped us to send our bags to Osaka as well as you can't take big bags with you to the Koyasan. Coffee was good. A bit tricky if you are vegetarian in general though at Shirahama. Your best bet is the Lawson Supermarket."

Shiraraso Grand Hotel
"Good things: Excellent location - it just a few steps to the Shirahama beach, and a bus stop just outside the hotel. Great staff at the check-in counter, room is clean and okay. Bad things: It's a dated hotel, the room is clean but the hallway (3rd floor) is a little bit smelly. The traditional restaurant mostly serves local Japanese, I don't feel wellcomed during our dinner time. Also, there was nobody to open the sliding door at the restaurant exit when we leave, but they did for the local Japanese."
