Transportation is convenient. We took the bus from Kobe Sannomiya to Arima Onsen in one hour and walked to the hotel in a few minutes.
We booked a twin room, which was spacious and had a small terrace overlooking the station. The view was beautiful both during the day and at night.
The indoor hot spring is not very big, with seven faucets, a gold spring and a silver spring, a massage pool, and a steam room and sauna.
I didn't use the outdoor hot spring because you have to enter from another entrance
Breakfast is a buffet style. Time slots are set when you check in. Each time slot is about one hour to control the flow of people. This arrangement is good.

Very close to Arima Onsen Station, only 3 minutes away. The hotel has an open-air silver broth bath, large indoor bath with gold broth, silver broth, massage pool and cold pool. In addition the hotel is mainly Japanese travelers, did not meet foreigners.

Arima Onsen is a small town. The hotel is within a 10-minute walk from the train station and the bus terminal. The hotel's dinner is Kaiseki cuisine and the breakfast is a Japanese buffet with many varieties. The room is large and clean. The hotel's hot springs include gold bath, silver bath and clear water (the outdoor hot spring was temporarily closed due to a sudden drop in temperature and snow). In short, it was a satisfactory accommodation experience.

The air conditioner can be adjusted, as shown in Figure 1, turn it to OFF, then low to high. It may be because the facilities are relatively old, like a product of the 1990s, and the comments may not have found it before. The light switches are all on the bedside table.
Service: Very good, especially the catering, the buffet breakfast and dinner here are very good, especially the dinner, which is like the process of French cuisine, but filled with traditional Japanese food, taste good, good service, and finally a little full, the experience is very good!
Environment: Very close to the tram station, just out of the door, convenient transportation, opposite the station is the Little Turtle Store, you can buy local specialty soda, drink a bottle after soaking in the hot spring, don't be too cool!
Hot Spring: I went late this time, and I directly booked the place to become a private hot spring, and the experience was very good!
Disadvantages: The facilities are old, the room ventilation is not very good, but fortunately the town is very quiet at night, and it is completely fine to sleep with a window open.
Summary: The room booked on Saturday in the peak season is 2155 yuan, 20% for the room, 45% for catering + service, and 35% for hot springs.
The price is usually much cheaper, just a few hundred yuan, so friends with a limited budget can definitely consider this one!

It's hard to choose a room in Arima Onsen, either it's very expensive or the reviews are not very good. I compared many hotels and finally chose this moderately priced hotel. The decoration of the room is a little old, but the hygiene is very good. The hotel's dinner gave me a surprise, and the quality was higher than the famous Kaiseki cuisine I had in Kyoto. The service of the restaurant waiter was very good. I couldn't eat the dessert at the end, and she took the initiative to say that I could take it back to the room. The open-air bath is not big, but when I went there, there was no one there, only me. The large bath is average. It is very close to the Kobe train, just a few minutes walk, and it is also very convenient to transfer to Kobe. It is very quiet at night and you can enjoy the feeling of vacation.

The hotel is clean, but it's old. However, the Jinyin Hot Spring is so comfortable that you don't need to go out to soak in it. The location is convenient, and there is a convenience store downstairs to buy snacks.

The worst in Arima. I have to give it at least one star, which is a shame. Even zero would be too much. This is a place I never want to stay at again. This is the first time I've ever felt so confused at a hotel.

It is located just up the hill next to Arima Station. I think it is a members-only inn. It does not offer extensive services, but it is generally a compact and easy-to-use inn with only the essentials. The rooms are generally equipped with a TV, safe, refrigerator, yukata, etc., so there is no inconvenience. There are gold and silver spring baths for both men and women. There are also separate open-air baths for both men and women. For dinner, the Kobe beef shabu-shabu course was filling and delicious. I personally only had one small dish, so I recommend the shabu-shabu.

I decided to spend my milestone birthday at Arima Onsen and made a reservation through the airline website I use. I was also pleased with the friendly service of the front desk. At dinner, I was given a free drink as a birthday present, and the course meal was served at a good timing and with good quality, so I was very satisfied with the meal. The large bath (7 washstands) was not particularly large, but it had a gold spring, a silver spring, and a sauna, so I spent a relaxing time in these three places. Before breakfast, I enjoyed a 30-40 minute walk from the Arima River Waterfront Square to Taiko Bridge, Nene Bridge, Yukemuri Square, and Kamenoo Falls. The friendly service of the inn in everything, and the night view of Arima Onsen Station, which I could see below from my room, and the lights of Arima scattered in the distance, were also memorable. However, it was unfortunate that I was unable to use the open-air bath due to a malfunction of the facilities. That's why I gave it an overall rating of 4, but it's closer to 5. The title "Once again" expresses my desire to go to the open-air bath next time. Thank you for your hospitality.

The hotel has 9 floors and a parking lot. The Western-style lobby (B1) is wonderful. We stayed two nights in a twin room on the 5th floor with a veranda. It's a dimmable lamp, so it's easy to use. There is a nostalgic feeling that there is a neck massager and wired equipment. Today is a full moon and a pink moon. It was very nice to see the pink moon from the Kinsen Yubune. Double lucky to see the full moon on the mountain the next night! Breakfast was a set menu and delicious. It is also nice to have drinks and desserts near the entrance. Nearly half of the menu changes daily, so it's suitable for consecutive nights. Among the hotels in Arima Onsen, it is a hotel where you can stay at a reasonable price.
