Food was amazing. Service was amazing. We felt well taken care of. Love the private hot springs bath and using the owl indicator to know which bath was open. We also visited the sister inn's outdoor hot springs which had a small divider between men's and women's. I was able to speak with my spouse while there. The grounds there were beautiful. Saw stray or outdoor cats outside as well. Super cute.

Located in Kobe, a few steps from Arima Toys and Automata Museum and 100 metres from Zempuku-ji Temple, Tabiyu Abrigo offers free WiFi and air conditioning.

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.

Founded in the 12th century and beloved by Junichiro Tanizaki and other Japanese novelists, Tosen Goshobo is the oldest of the hot-spring inns at Arima.

Absolutely everything was fantastic from start the finish. The staff worked hard to provide us with a wonderful stay. The rooms are beautiful and extremely comfortable, of particular note the massage chair was fantastic. The Onsen itself was warm and comforting, and having a Sauna in addition to it was a nice touch. Both meals we had, Breakfast and Dinner were absolutely delicious. Additionally, it's quite an easy walk from the train station compared to other Onsens in the area, so if travelling with a lot of luggage it could be a good option.

This onsen hotel is one of the most beautiful and relaxing spots anywhere. Everything is done to perfection, the exquisite dinners and breakfasts, the incredibly comfortable, spacious bedroom with a personal onsen. The mineral baths are the attraction of course and we took two a day.

Great room with a nice view. Private open-air onsen was really enjoyable. Staff was very attentive and their hospitality was really on a high level. My wife had a birthday so the hotel managed to prepare a nice gift for her - amazing! The food... oh the food... Chef Ota-san and his crew have managed to prepare one of the most enjoyable feasts I've ever had. Big thanks to everybody involved in preparation of such culinary joy! My next visit in Arima will surely be here again!

Our stay was genuinely enjoyable thanks to a mix of thoughtful amenities and charming design. - The location was incredibly convenient - perfect for exploring the area and just a short walk to the nearby onsen. - The building itself has a cool heritage vibe, beautifully maintained and full of character. - Our room was both private and spacious, offering a level of comfort that made it easy to relax - Parking was a breeze: all-day access for just 1000 yen, and the hotel even arranged pickup and drop-off from the carpark. - The staff were fantastic - friendly and proactive. They helped us arrange luggage delivery to our next hotel, which made our travel much smoother.

Our family of 3 had an absolutely fantastic experience during my stay! From the moment I arrived, the service was exceptional. The hotel personnel spoke fluent English, making communication smooth and welcoming. I was greeted with a welcome drink that included local beer—a lovely touch—and local snacks that gave a taste of the region right from the start. The attention to detail throughout the hotel was truly impressive. The thoughtfully curated toiletries and the uniquely designed key card showed just how much care went into every aspect of the guest experience. One of the highlights was the in-room customized board games, which added a fun and personal touch. I was especially amazed by the toy museum spread across three floors—it was whimsical, nostalgic, and completely free for guests to explore. Every corner held a new surprise, and I could’ve spent hours more there. My daughter could bear to leave. The complimentary onsen was another wonderful perk—clean, relaxing, and the perfect way to end a day of exploring. I genuinely wish I had stayed longer. This hotel offers more than just a place to sleep—it offers an experience, full of charm, creativity, and thoughtful hospitality. Highly recommended!
