Ryokan with great hot spring and kaiseki meals !

The ryokan was very clean and the staff was very friendly. The hotel was very easy to find and located next to the bus station. We arrived a bit before 3pm and were able to check in right away. The dinner and breakfast were awesome and we love both the gold and silver onsen there. It was a great experience and we would recommend this ryokan to people who are visiting the Arima Onsen area.
