The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful—always available without being intrusive. The rooms are spacious, spotlessly clean, and well-equipped with everything you could need, including a full kitchenette for self-catering. On the day we arrived, the weather turned unexpectedly cold, but the cabins were warmly heated, making it cozy and comfortable throughout. We only booked one night, which felt like too short a stay—we’d love to come back for longer next time! And those two sheep? Adorable beyond words—they brought so much charm to the place.

We opted to enjoy dinner in the room, which made for a cozy, relaxed evening without having to leave the comfort of our space. Breakfast and dinner were solid—not fancy, but satisfying and well-prepared. The onsen bath area is on the smaller side, but we appreciated that the men’s and women’s baths switch hours in the morning and evening, ensuring privacy and peace. The hot spring water itself is pure and soothing—perfect for unwinding. Overall, it’s a wonderful blend of traditional charm, modern comfort, and great value. Definitely worth returning to.

It’s been 20 years since I last visited Arima Onsen, and this time it was a special trip to celebrate my mother’s 80th birthday with the family. Staying at Kinzan, an adult-only hotel, made the experience even more relaxing and intimate—no noisy kids, just peace and quiet. The highlight? Having a private hot spring right in our room. We could soak whenever we wanted, no need to rush or share space—so convenient and truly luxurious. The meals were exceptional too—thoughtfully prepared, delicious, and beautifully presented. And with a check-out time of noon, we had plenty of time to unwind and enjoy every last moment without rushing. This stay was more than just a getaway—it felt like a true retreat. I’d absolutely come back here again if given the chance.

I especially appreciated that one private bath is included in the rate, available on a first-come basis—no extra cost, just pure convenience. There’s also a family-style onsen that requires advance booking, perfect for groups or couples wanting more privacy. Dining at the hotel’s restaurant was a highlight: both lunch and dinner were delicious, well-prepared, and served with genuine hospitality.

Arima Onsen Motoyu Kosenkaku
Staying at Arima Onsen Motoyu Kosenkaku was an absolute delight. The moment I stepped into the property, I felt like I had entered a quiet, timeless retreat. Located just a short distance from Kobe, it's easily accessible by public transport, and once you're on the grounds, the peaceful atmosphere truly sets in. The traditional Japanese design of the inn is beautifully maintained—wooden beams, tatami floors, and subtle lighting create a serene vibe. My room was spacious, cozy, and perfectly appointed with all the essentials. What made this stay unforgettable was the natural hot spring bath. The onsen water is crystal clear, rich in minerals, and so soothing that every muscle relaxed instantly. I especially loved walking through the surrounding bamboo groves and listening to the gentle sound of flowing water nearby—it felt like being in a hidden garden. The kaiseki dinner was exquisite—fresh ingredients, artistic presentation, and thoughtful flavor balance. Breakfast was equally impressive, with local delicacies that gave a true taste of the region.

The staff went above and beyond with their warm, attentive service. They even offered complimentary shuttle service to and from the town center, and it’s easy to call for a pickup back to the hotel. While the outdoor onsen is popular and tends to fill up fast, the indoor baths are much easier to book and just as enjoyable. Breakfast was a highlight—huge variety, fresh ingredients, and delicious local flavors. Every detail felt thoughtfully curated. This place truly delivers on comfort, hospitality, and value. I’d definitely come back without hesitation.
Hotel Morgenrot
Staying at Hotel Morgenrot was an absolute delight, especially because of its unbeatable location right next to the Gin-You Onsen entrance—just a quick step outside and you're already soaking in the hot springs. The temple of Gekoku-ji is literally within 100 meters, making it super easy to take a peaceful morning walk or explore some local history. While the bathroom is on the smaller side, it's spotlessly clean and functional. The overall vibe of the place is cozy and authentic, with a real sense of Japanese simplicity and warmth. For the price, this hotel offers incredible value—perfect for travelers who want a quiet, genuine ryokan experience without the hassle of long commutes. I’d definitely stay here again if I’m back in Kobe.
Zuihoen
We stayed at Zuihoen in Kobe with my 74-year-old mom and our 10-year-old daughter. The suite was spacious—definitely more than just a standard room—but it felt like three rooms were squeezed together, which made the layout a bit unusual. Still, we were very happy with the size and comfort. The bathroom stood out—the fixtures were high-end and so relaxing after a long day of exploring. While the price wasn’t cheap (over ¥100,000 for the suite), considering the location, service, and overall quality, it felt worth every yen. We only found availability through this platform, which made it even more special. A memorable stay with a great balance of comfort and value—definitely planning to return.

Staying at Arima Onsen Koki was an absolute delight! The moment I walked in, the cleanliness and attention to detail were immediately apparent.
