The Room was very spacious with a lovely view

"Authentic onsen ryokan at one of Japan's top onsen areas."

8.0

This is a very traditional ryokan (Japanese inn) featuring both types of the onsen water Arima Onsen is known for. (Kin-no-yu and Gin-no-yu, or Golden Hot Spring and Silver Hot Spring.) The baths are divided by gender, and switch morning and night, so it's possible to enjoy both types of onsen. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. The service is everything you'd expect from a higher end traditional ryokan. The room was very large, and had a veranda sitting area in addition to the main room. This is a traditional Japanese-style room so guests sleep on futon on the floor; during the day the futon are put away and the room is converted into a sitting area on the floor. There are chairs available on the veranda, but there are no Western-style beds. The hotel is located just outside the main tourist area of Arima Onsen, but is in easy walking distance of all the main attractions, including restaurants. The town is on a hill, so expect to be doing a lot of walking up and down when exploring the town. If you're looking for an authentic onsen ryokan, this is a good choice.

The hotel looks over one of the main streets in Arima Onsen. This is a small town so there isn't a lot of traffic - but the walls are thin, and the traffic noise at night was noticeable.

Very Japanese styled hotel. I love the onsen there, it has both indoor and outdoor onsens. Also, staffs are very friendly, I’m not good at Japanese, so they use a translation machine to communicate with me. And it’s very close to 711 and bus station.
