The best hitch I would recommend for your 2013 Honda Odyssey the EcoHitch part # 306-X7253 as it has a mostly hidden appearance, is the 2 inch hitch size which is the most popular and has best capacity. Other options are going to hang down below the rear bumper quite a bit more.

Then for trailer wiring the # 118521 which is the easiest to install and has the most reliable converter box.

If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
