Tenchi no Yado Oku no Hosomichi
Hyogo Prefecture/Arima OnsenAn unforgettable Arima Onsen journey with a "Creative Kaiseki" that captivates all senses.
We not only provide detailed information about the cuisine but also offer an experience to savor with your eyes, ears, and palate. We deliver a live sensation that cannot be experienced elsewhere. Enjoy the culinary creations of the award-winning chef, Tadamichi Ota, including our signature dishes such as the "Cotton Rain" Sukiyaki and the "Sea of Clouds" Hot Pot, which captivate all five senses with their exquisite flavors. Our Property features two types of natural hot springs: "Golden Onsen" and "Private Source Onsen." There are two large communal baths, private baths exclusively for the annex, and open-air baths in every guest room of the main building. It is rare to find a Property where you can enjoy the famous "Golden Onsen" in a private open-air bath attached to your room, and even rarer to find one where you can enjoy a scenic view from the bath. Take advantage of our location, away from the hustle and bustle of the Onsen town, and indulge in a luxurious moment as you listen to the chirping of birds, the murmuring of the river, and admire the seasonal beauty of the surrounding mountains.
Absolutely delighted! Thank you for such a wonderful day!I booked a stay at Tenchi no Yado Okunohosomichi to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday.This was my first time staying at a luxury ryokan, and the experience was on a completely different level from anywhere I had stayed before.From the moment we arrived, every staff member was courteous and helpful, explaining everything we needed to know and making us feel at ease.The lobby was quiet and relaxing, with soft lighting. I felt a little nervous at first, but that atmosphere added to the sense of occasion that comes with staying at a luxury ryokan.I had planned this stay as a surprise for my girlfriend, but there were several surprises that delighted me as well, keeping us excited throughout our stay. Thank you so much for all the thoughtful touches and gifts!We had been told we would dine in a semi-private room, but we were actually shown to a private room. If this was a special arrangement by the staff, we truly appreciate it. We enjoyed a leisurely meal in a peaceful setting.The portions were generous and the food was incredibly delicious. Both dinner and breakfast were thoroughly satisfying!From the staff’s hospitality to the food and all the surprises, everything was wonderful. This is definitely a ryokan I would love to visit again.We made unforgettable memories celebrating my girlfriend’s birthday.Thank you for such a happy day! We would love to stay again!
たのちゃんまんです 10/26/2026We stayed here to celebrate my wife’s birthday.We booked the Anniversary Plan, and in short, it was a truly wonderful stay that made us genuinely glad we chose to spend her special day here.What impressed us first was the outstanding hospitality of the staff.From arrival throughout our stay, everyone treated us with such warmth and care that we felt completely at ease.And above all, the food was exceptional.Both dinner and breakfast were absolutely delicious—not just tasty, but beautifully presented in a way that truly felt like “a feast for the eyes as well as the palate.”Each course made us excited for what would come next, and we enjoyed every moment of mealtime.As part of the Anniversary Plan, we also received many thoughtful touches.They prepared a carved watermelon with the character “Kotobuki” (meaning “celebration/long life”), offered an extra dish on the house, and even gave us a commemorative gift.Every gesture made us happy and felt like they were celebrating my wife’s birthday together with us.Our Room had an open-air bath and a terrace, which allowed us to relax as a couple without worrying about anyone around us—something we really appreciated.In addition, as an IKYU Diamond member benefit, champagne and Shine Muscat grapes were prepared in our Room as well. This was another delightful service.Breakfast the next morning was just as impressive as dinner—not only in flavor but also in presentation—leaving us satisfied until the very end.Most importantly, my wife was truly happy during this trip—that meant everything to me.On such a special occasion—a birthday—we were able to enjoy amazing cuisine, warm hospitality, and unhurried time together as a couple.This is an Accommodation that made us sincerely feel: “We’re so glad we chose this place.”Thanks to all of your staff, it became a memorable and wonderful birthday for both of us.Thank you very much.We would love to return again for another important anniversary.
