Shintetsu Rokko Station × Stylish StaysRecommended Hotel·Ryokan

Since Toyotomi Hideyoshi frequently held tea ceremonies with Sen no Rikyū, Arima Onsen, known as Japan's oldest onsen with a history of 1300 years, has continuously attracted visitors. Located on a hill overlooking the onsen town, Takasansou Kanno quietly stands. It is a property where the harmony of flowers, furnishings, and architecture naturally blends into the heart.

Arima Onsen, one of Japan's oldest hot spring resorts and counted among the three most famous onsen in Japan. During the Meiji era, when Kobe opened its port to foreign trade, many foreigners visited Arima Onsen. They also visited the renowned autumn foliage spot "Kiyomizu-dera," which later became a foreigner-exclusive hotel called "Kiyomizu Hotel." The lush green grounds of "Arima Sanso Goshobessho" still retain the sacred atmosphere of that time. Goshobessho was established by Shirobei Kanai XV, the current head of "Tosen Goshobo," Arima Onsen's oldest accommodation. All 10 suite rooms at Goshobessho are detached and feature private onsen baths and low-temperature saunas known as "Thermal Rooms." One of these suites even includes the world's first treehouse-style open-air bath.

This Ryokan is a traditional Japanese wooden restaurant inn, renovated from a now-rare villa.

The natural scenery offers a grand panorama unique to Mount Rokko, where mountains, the city center, and the sea converge, creating a dramatic and expansive view due to the steep elevation differences.
