Located within 50 metres of Hosenji Temple and 300 metres of Philatelic Culture Museum Arima, Kobe, Brücke Arima KOBE provides rooms with air conditioning and a shared bathroom in Kobe.

The cafe was great for brekkie. Sad it wasn’t open for dinner. It was my first stay in a hostel so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Certainly not the Sheraton but I feel it was decent for the price. Walkable to everywhere in Arima onsen area.

Situated in Arima, near Onsen-ji Temple, Gokurakuji Temple and Tosen Shrine, 貸別荘 楓-Fū- 有馬 features a terrace. The property has city and quiet street views, and is 100 metres from Nenbutsu-ji Temple.

It was a wonderful one-night stay, allowing me to fully enjoy every corner of Arima Onsen. The bedding was incredibly comfortable, giving me a restful sleep during my trip. With Kinsen (Golden Hot Spring) right in front of the accommodation, I could relax in the hot spring at night when the crowds had died down. Since it was centrally located in the alleys of Arima, I enjoyed strolling around the neighborhood in the morning, trying delicious street food along the way!

    Great hostel location right in China town and a walking distance from Sannomiya. Second time staying there as it’s great on a budget and for one night. Female only dorms offered so I felt safe. Clean toilets and showers. Mirror in the dorm area which is useful.

    Great breakfast.& Dinner experience. A good location once you sorted out transport to and from...The hotel really needs to give good directions from the JR station-the change of trains & how to get to hotel from the local train stop..as initially its all very complicated. The staff in the restaurant were superb, & the food was good! We met some locals in a lunchtime restaurant who told us about the famous castle in a town 20 mins away by train...this was worth the experience. Amazing!

    First of all the owner Sai is a great host and will help you with anything you need. She even took us to a hike in the mountains. The bar in the hostel is a great chillout place, you could also choose music if you like. Rooftop and big kitchen too. Also the location is near city center

    Excellent location near to a JR train station and was close to lots of local restaurants. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The property also had a down stairs bar. During my stay both 5he locals and other guests visited, which was great fun.
