All staffs are very kind and they provided high quality of services. Onsen was great and also Kaiseki dinner was awesome and delicious. Stay at Okuno Hosomichi was an unforgettable time for us. At the room there were various snacks, fruits and drinks. Thank you and we will stay again when we visit Arima Onsen once again.

The atmosphere is fantastic, so are the meals. The staff is extremely friendly and professional, they tweaked our dinner plans and private onsen reservation without fuss due to a thunderstorm… By all means the most authentic ryokan in Arima Onsen.

We are grateful for the smiling faces and so helpful. You took extra attention to the child’s meal. All dishes for adult and kid’s meals were excellent. The hotel car rides were most helpful. The English speaking staff(Indonesian) was so helpful and always smiling。The onsen, masionette house was superb.

    A true 5 star hotel like they used to be with incredible customer service and facilities. Great swimming pool, restaurants and food. Shuttle bus service to and from the main local train station was very convenient and for free before check in and after check out. I would definitely go back next time I visit Kobe.

    It’s understated but in a nice way. Staff are very helpful and welcoming. The private Onsen is so relaxing. It’s a luxury to have it all to yourself. We booked a Kaiseki dinner and it was amazing! A big thank you to the Executive chef Yoshihiro Ogasawara!

    The hotel has a luxurious feel to it.. Staff are extremely friendly and courteous, they make you feel like a VIP. The location is great - it’s walking distance from shopping district and the harbour. The room I stayed in had the biggest bathtub that I have ever seen anywhere.

    Outstanding view with quiet location. Dinner and BF were over my expectation. Steak during dinner was superb condition, we think it deserves Michelin star. We stayed for two nights and they adjusted food for us nicely. My kids also enjoyed their food and could not eat them all. Onsen were also great with many baths to choose from. Room got good space that four of us feels very comfortable.
