Amazing location, price and staff. I know a little bit of Japanese so that helped, but they have a book for non-Japanese speakers! If you’re visiting, just please be respectful of their rules. I would definitely come back and recommend to everyone!

壁が薄い。隣のイビキが聞こえる。 本館のお風呂は狭いので10人入ればいっぱいのため、時間をずらさないと断られると思います。 部屋のアメニティはケトルと湯呑みと栓抜きと歯ブラシのみ。電子レンジなどは聞きましたがありませんと断られました。温泉街にお店充実してるので、部屋食は考えない方が良いと思います。 壁が薄い

When you get to the address provided, it directs you across the way to Kamiobo where you do the actual check-in. The attendant then leads you back to the actual location of your room. The ryokan only provides one towel per day. If you visit their onsen, you're supposed to bring that towel there with you, but they will not exchange a fresh one after you used the onsen so you will take that towel back with you to use in your room. The towel is also extremely thin so bring your own to use in your room and save their thin towel for the onsen. The hand towel provided is more like the body scrub towels hotels normally provide. A toothbrush and toothpaste is provided with your daily towel. The room has a mini fridge, electric water kettle, yukata, and slippers. The price of your stay includes free access to the onsen at Kamiobo. It was the scariest place I've ever visited in Japan. At Kamiobo, you get led through a maze of hallways before finally reaching the doors to the gender-separated onsen. You get downstairs and you're greeted by a room that looks straight out of a horror film. Go look at photos of Kamiobo on Google Maps and you will see what I mean. The room should probably be refreshed so that it's more inviting. Something as simple as a new paint job would help. I couldn't even relax while in the tub so I got out pretty quickly. It was so off-putting that I didn't bother to return or try the other public ones around. The mattress pad in the room was also very thin.

The distance to the hotel from the main street is walkable. But there is slope so big luggage will be slightly tough.

Charming and Perfect

It was the first time we came to Arima and we very much enjoyed our stay. The ryokan was well located and had everything we needed. We appreciated the booklet they provided that shared information about Arima and the onsens. They also made sure we each had fresh yukatas and towels daily in a carry bag for our trips to the onsens—It was very charming. Finding the check in location even with the address was a little difficult when we first arrived, but once we did, we were warmly greeted.

A comfortable no frills ryokan smack in the middle of Onsen Arima. Very quiet at night and easily walkable in all directions to both onsens. Parking available. Very nice host across the street for check in.

部屋もトイレ洗面台は清潔で、木造でも夜は静かでした。  夕食・朝食なしの素泊りがコンセプトのお宿です。夕食は近隣の飲食店が20時前後に閉まるので、事前に予約や営業時間の確認をお勧めします。 TVはなくても、フリーWi-Fiがあります。 タオルはもう少し心地よいものだと嬉しいです☆ 同じ旅館の無料で入れる温泉は古いので、温泉は近くの金の湯をお勧めします。

有馬の温泉街の真ん中にある宿なので、風情も良く、宿の設備も綺麗で非常にシンプルでした。過ごしやすいですが、壁が少し薄いです。 周囲の飲食店が早く閉まるのと、離れた所にコンビニがあるので、事前に飲食物は用意しておいた方が良いです。

天然温泉源なので温泉湯がとても素晴らしい。和のテイストで昭和な雰囲気の宿です。 ホテルのような気遣いは少ないのでそこを求めてしまうと物足りなさを感じるが、ある程度自分でやれる方には十分かなぁと。 温泉湯が十分に熱いので冬は最高に満喫できると思います。天然温泉源なので外観がどうしても温泉源の蒸発で内装の綺麗さを損なうが天然温泉湯はそういう味のある風呂場になるので気にせずに温泉を楽しみお肌もスベスベです。
