It is a historic accommodation being over 700 years, i expected the vintage kind of facilities. I came to Arima for the hot springs, this hotel has the greatest public and private baths. I enjoyed the buffet breakfast and dinner. I discovered they offer Tea ceremony between 9am to 10am to hotel guests while taking with a japanese return guest, wish the receptionist will inform me with this upon check-in so i wont miss out oj this opportunity.

A perfect hotel to relax

We stayed for two nights in this wonderful hotel. It's located in the center of the well known Arima Onsen. The hotel has pick-up and bring service that covers the train, bus and cable car stations in the surrounding area. It's very convenient to get around. The hotel is well organized and the rooms are super clean. We stayed in the traditional Japanese room, which is fantastic. Wearing the yukata, sitting on the tatami while viewing the beautiful mountains just so easily brings peace to our minds. The onsen in the hotels are also fabulous. It has three very large and different public bath. All have outdoor areas. We tried the private ones too. They are all very well maintained and easy to use. Our 7 year old son enjoyed it too. We chose the buffet dinner because of our picky eater son. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the buffet dinner. In addition to our extra Kobe beef dish, wagyu beef is included in the buffet too. There are many other dishes, which are all in high quality and very delicious. We took the cable car and wondered in the Rikko mountain area during the day and then came back to the hotel for a hot bath, and then enjoyed the wonderful buffet dinner. We couldn't be more satisfied. Highly recommended!

This property does take some effort to get to. But the stay was pleasant. Buffet was delicious and onsen baths were amazing. The ryokan experience is very interesting and comfortable for us. Staff were very helpful. One thing to mention is it is not very tattoo-friendly. They politely ask you to cover tattoos in common areas, including restaurants.

My friends and I stayed at this hotel for one night in June 2023. We arrived at the hotel early at 10am before the check-in time, and they offered luggage storage services to us. We traveled around the onsen and returned at 2:30pm. By then, the room was ready and our luggage had been transferred directly to the room. I stayed on the 14th floor of the north wing and the mountain view from the room was excellent. We enjoyed a great Kobe beef dinner and Japanese breakfast in the room. The service was also professional and provided in fluent English. Our package also included access to the premium lounge, where the drinks were very good. I would recommend that the hotel increase the operating hours for the premium lounge (currently closed at around 10pm).
