    Shinraku Premium Suite 501 with Hot Spring Bath
    Stayed 1 night in January 2026

    “Perfect hot spring inn.”

    I stayed in room 501, which is 130 square meters. It has a large indoor bath with both silver and gold spring bathtubs, one of which is made of hinoki (Japanese cypress). The amenities are quite well-equipped, including coffee, and there is even a bar counter. There are two washrooms and toilets. The bed is firm, and the pillows are also great, providing an excellent sleeping experience. Both dinner and breakfast are of high quality, with a variety of options and generous portions, leading to a very satisfying experience. Due to the traditional Japanese architecture, the stairs and steps may not be suitable for the elderly. However, the room itself is flat and comfortable to spend time in. The price is not cheap, but it is reasonable, and I highly recommend experiencing it at least once.

    “Comfortable accommodation and friendly service”

    The accommodation was clean and larger compared to places in downtown Japan. The staff were very friendly, and I appreciated that they considered the checkout time for their service. The hot spring facilities were well-equipped and comfortable. The location was right in front as soon as I got off the Hankyu bus, and it was also close to the station.

    Japanese Style Twin Room
    Stayed 1 night in June 2026

    “I want to stay again.”

    I was very satisfied with the size and facilities of the room. The tea set and baked goods added a touch of the charm of a traditional inn while being stylishly modernized, which was impressive. The hospitality and thoughtfulness of the staff were top-notch, making my stay very pleasant. The hot spring felt a bit small, but the golden spring was incredibly enjoyable. This time, due to time constraints, I only stayed without meals, but I would like to try the dining next time. However, regarding the prices, my honest impression is that Arima Onsen overall is quite expensive. I think if the prices were a little more reasonable, I would visit more frequently.

    “It was a satisfying trip.”

    There are plenty of things to see and eat nearby, and the kaiseki provided by the hotel was really delicious. The accommodation is quite spacious as well. The hot spring water is so nice that once you get in and come out, your body feels relaxed for about two days.

    “Adult's inn! Gourmet inn!”

    We are a couple in our 60s who visited in March. We love hot springs and have been touring hidden hot springs across the country. The great thing about Arima Onsen is that it is easily accessible and can be visited casually, and as one of Japan's three major hot spring areas, it has excellent water quality. Having visited Arima Onsen several times, we decided on this ryokan based on various reviews and photos. It was a very atmospheric accommodation, and both the dinner and breakfast were wonderful. The staff provided a relaxed and calm service, which allowed us to unwind thoroughly. This ryokan is recommended for those who enjoy a tranquil adult retreat.
