Arima Onsen Gekkoen Yugetsusanso
Hyogo Prefecture/Arima OnsenA 75-year-old sukiya-style wooden Accommodation, founded in 1952, where you can feel the warmth of wood and the charm of its history.
A Ryokan with a rare <private Onsen source> in Arima Onsen. Enjoy not only the golden waters but also the soothing sound of the stream and natural scenery at the open-air bath along Takigawa River, featuring the symbolic "Gekkobashi" bridge. Savor a colorful Japanese buffet.
The Room was thoroughly cleaned down to the smallest details, and we were able to stay very comfortably. Since our Room faced the river, we could hear the kajika frogs calling at night and enjoy a wonderfully luxurious atmosphere. Also, whenever we passed staff members in the hallway and elsewhere, they greeted us thoughtfully, and I was impressed by how many of them showed such attentive hospitality. The meals exceeded our expectations in both flavor and variety, and every dish was delicious. The dining area also showed careful consideration in its seating arrangement, creating a refined, high-quality space for dining. As for the baths, we could enjoy both Kinsen and Ginsen without leaving the property, with three different bath areas available—more than enough to fully relax and enjoy ourselves. At first I was surprised to hear that amenities are not placed in the Room but are picked up in the lobby to bring back with you; however, once we tried it, it felt flexible and actually more convenient. When we visit Arima Onsen again, my family agreed there won’t be any other choice.
みま右近 5/31/2026We enjoyed Arima Onsen with our family of five.The cherry blossoms were still in bud, but that had its own charm, and we were blessed with good weather, making it a wonderful trip.Meals: Kobe beef teppanyaki, fresh sashimi, plus a buffet where we could choose what we liked.The bath was amazing—especially the open-air bath outside (Tamaboko-no-Yu)!We were very satisfied with this Accommodation full of Showa-era retro charm!By this weekend, the cherry blossoms will probably be in full bloom...We’d love to stay again when we have the chance. Thank you for your hospitality.

Please enjoy a peaceful moment away from daily life.

The distinctive red-colored water "Kinsen" is known for its high heat retention effect and is considered a versatile hot spring water that provides various benefits, including alleviating cold sensitivity and chronic gynecological conditions.
