Tabiyu Abrigo

Everything exceeded my expectations. Thanks for providing yukata and geta for use when going to onsen. Location was perfect and i especially love the tatami style room

Then I arrived, I saw the sings ( to show where to go to check in) is hard to understand, especially when you pulled a laborious luggage…why don’t tell customers at beginning?

Once stepping inside the room, i understood why their reviews are so good. Pictures on OTA don't show its charm enough. Literally a small apartment sized room with elegant-modern yet japanese style interior, compy bed, dining table with chairs and detailed amenities. Room temp can be controllable which is rare for Ryokans. A gentlemen showed us around whole facilities, asked us if we have any questions, took good time for greeting guest. It's hard to find a spacious room in Japan with limited budget, but this is exceptional. Most of all, hotel is in the center of town which is of up & down hills. Many of them. Pretty conveinient getting in and out of hotel to the hot springs and back to the room to relax. This is way better than the nearby ryokan I paid 3× more except there is no meal options.

Arima onsen area is not a big town, with limited dining options. Seems overall business hours of restaurants in town are pretty tight. When checking in late night, which is another good option for this hotel, consider the dining plan.

Location was great, it was easy to access and the room was well set up. The foyer with the bathroom was very cold at night outside the cozy room so make sure you have some wooly socks or a warm undershirt for this. Overall, we loved our stay here.

Nothing.

The Japanese style room was spacious and well equipped. The check-in was super easy, and the staff were informative and friendly. The location is in the heart of Arima Onsen. Dressed in your yukata, winter jacket, and clogs (graciously supplied by the hotel), you are a few steps away from the well-known Kin no Yu Onsen and foot bath. The futons were super comfortable, too, giving you a restful nights sleep.
