Be prepared shared bathroom, shower and toilet. No wash facilities in the room. However, all very clean still.

Local Japanese breakfast is very nice- both in presentation and taste. Calming ambience in the breakfast room. Very neat room and clean throughout. Local onsens less than 5mins away.

Shame the bathrooms are shared but you know that when booking.

Modern design. Wood finish.

Difficulties to book the breakfast option.

In the center of Arima onsen, really quiet place.

Don‘t expect Western Standards: 1 shared bathroom for the whole house and thin walls 😂

Typical Japanese house with a room with a Futon bed. Lovely Japanese breakfast! Location 5 min away from the Golden Bath!

There wasn’t any coffee in the room but an easy fix following a trip to 7-11!

Was a nice spot to spend a few nights in this hot spring town - is just a few moments to walk up to Kin No Yu, and a few minutes down to Gin No Yu. Check in was really straightforward, and all the staff in the hotel were so friendly and welcoming. The bath and shower were very nice, and never had trouble getting access to the shared facilities.

Toilet was one floor down, and showers on the ground floor. With the onsens in Arima being the main attraction, you might not need the shower, so that's actually a lesser problem.

It's right in the middle of Arima-onsen, with both Gin & Kin onsens nearby. The room we had was quite spacious. The breakfast was really good - Ryokan style.

Room is not soundproof. I was disturbed by other rowdy guests despite the warning given to all guests. I did not file a complaint.

Excellent.

Beware it is quite hard to get to the hotel if you have heavy luggages, lots of uphill roads and stairs.

Very helpful and friendly staffs. Room is well equipped with fridge, ipad-mini, TV etc. You'll be able experience the most calm and natural arima in the morning before tourists arrive.

Great traditional lodging with a very nice modern room in the middle of Arima Onsen. Small shops and restaurants at the doorstep. Super friendly staff giving great tips for the stay. Perfect japanese breakfast. If you walk from Arima Onsen station, it is a bit up the hill.

The water at the basins are not heated 🥲 Went during the winter so it was really cold. However, the baths had hot water.

Really clean. It is in the heart of Arimaonsen and hence is reachable to many places within a few minutes. The silver onsen is only one minute away! Staff ensured we had everything we needed. Extended one more night here because we were so comfortable.

Didn't use the shared bathroom as I went to the onsen (public baths) - can't rate that.

Cosy guest house in Arima, very interesting japanese breakfast, super friendly hosts! Loved the room and the bed!

Nothing. Didn't expect that it was Japanese dinner as we preferred Japanese dinner. Nevertheless it's a pleasant surprise. Note that there is no elevator and the rooms are from 2nd floor onwards.

Nice place to stay with helpful and friendly staff. The hotsprings are nearby by foot. Please remember to use a translator app or similar as it will help you to communicate with the staff since they mostly speak simple English.

I have no complaints

The place is amazing and it feels pretty traditional. The facilities are well kept and make you feel comfortable. Please eat at the restaurant, it's amazing.

Uncomfortable for people who visit from overseas where people aren’t used to sit on Tatami mat. If the provided beanbags were slightly bigger, it might have been much better.

Nice and clean and traditional. Perfect location very close to 金の湯. All main shopping streets are in walking distance .

toilets located at level 2 but no toilet at level 3, and unfortunately my room at level 3, 😁 but it's fine for a night.

we received a very warm and sincere welcome, it is clean and comfy, walkable distance from train station, good location for exploring and to onsen pools. I would like to apologise to the staff/owner for me calling a bit loud outside the door when checking in, as I have difficulties to open the door which with 2 lock levers I couldn't figure out how to open.
