Exceptional facilities, exceptional meals served in room, wonderful scenic views as well. A nice attached restuarant as well. Needless to state, the onsen are excellent, both the indoor and outdoor ones- they rotate access for men and women, so you can experience all of them. This is made better by the fact that the inn has their own spring source, and does not need water pumped in front anywhere else. There is also a bar in the hotel, with an excellent bartender - and with guests getting a decent discount on already competitively priced drinks. They also employ foreign staff who speak English and some other languages, so check-in processes and other issues are easily resolved for foreign travellers. They also provide shuttles for the short but relatively steep walk up from the train station, so unless you are travelling light, do call them. You can also cross the road from the station to the tourist information centre and they will be happy to make the call for you. Great stay, would love to come back.

It was my husband's birthday when we checked in. I had emailed the hotel if there could be any surprise arrangement for my husband. Since I had been very busy the weeks before we travelled to Kobe. I raised my questions bit by bit and day by day to the hotel. The hotel staff was very patience to answer all my questions via booking.com messaging box. The hotel was so kind to upgrade us the room with a better view. I also want to thank the little bit curly but short hair, young foreign gentlemen who served at the check-in counter in the morning of 12 Sep. He is very kind & attentive to address our need when we checked out. The shuttle bus driver, the lady who served our breakfast & dinner and the staff in the lobby, they are so kind & helpful. The room is very clean. For sure, we will stay in this hotel next time when we visit Kobe again.

I booked the Family cottage for 4. It was a nice little cottage. It gives me a comfy feeling walking in. There's a Jacuzzi in the cottage, it sure is nice, but at the same time I feel it isn't very needed since we spend more time in the Onsen. Walking into the lobby, the hotel has a nice view down the town. The hotel has 2 Onsen, both indoor, they're great, there is some walking distance (outdoor) away from the cottage but isn't too bad. I had western style dinner and breakfast, it was a great experience. Nice presentation and tasty, very satisfying. Just a heads up for any future guests, the ryokan (hotel) is located uphill, please use their provided shuttle service. I unfortunately hiked up there, not knowing there is such a service.

I had a beautiful big Japanese style room with a balcony overlooking the city and mountains. I got a lovely kaiseki dinner including kobe beef and amazing breakfast served in the room. There was a nice sake choice for the dinner, but also very good wine. I appreciated the free transfer to town. Sraff was very kind, in particular the lady serving dinner and breakfast. The hotel is up on the hill set in nature but very close to town. The bus trip was very easy and comfortable from Osaka station to Arima onsen (1 hour). The town has some nice stores and the atmosphere was great. It was a lovely get away from the big cities.

The meals were just sumptuous. The presentation, the details and of course the food were tasty too! Th onsen was lovely too. The staff were ever so helpful and friendly. And we got to choose our own beautiful kimono for the stay! We got a room facing the mountainside and I find myself being mesmerised by the 'bowing' of the beautiful trees outside during the stay. It is such a soothing experience just staring at the trees outside.
