超預期的酒店,第一次到日本的第一家酒店,太超預期了。 衝著他家温泉去的,沒有讓人失望,也是第一次感受日本温泉的魅力,泡一下,皮膚滑滑的。 房間超級大,雖然有點舊,空調聲音很吵,但是很乾凈,主要是第二天早上窗外的景色有驚艷到我們,下次有機會會再去感受一下

The room and hotel corridors are very cold, and the front desk service attitude is simple and blunt.

The room is very comfortable. The hotel is located in the mountains with beautiful scenery. There are free foot massage equipment after you come out of the hot spring. If you bring the elderly and children, it is best to arrive early and let the hotel's free shuttle bus pick you up at the station. Climbing up the hill is a bit tiring.

Highly recommended! Highly recommended! You really have to come to Arima Onsen once. The town is very unique. You won't feel tired after visiting and eating. The hotel was booked in advance and the price was not expensive. It was only over 1,600 for 4 people in a room, of course, without meals. But the golden hot spring is very unique

The hotel is very clean and generally satisfactory. I read through the comments before booking. Here are a few places that are not mentioned by everyone for reference by later tourists: About transportation: 1. About the hotel to the town Many comments mentioned that the transportation is inconvenient, and there is a slope to climb. In my personal experience, I think that although there is a slope in front of the hotel, it is still completely possible to walk down and stroll around the town after putting down the luggage, and it only takes 5-10 minutes to walk there. Of course, there are elderly people and children with limited mobility. You can go out of the door in both ways. It’s just that there are not many restaurants open at night, and the town is not big. There is a 711 in the town. Yoshitakaya’s lip balm is very good. It was sold out when I went there the next day. 2. About returning to the city I chose to take a bus back to Osaka to return to the city. The station is in the second to last picture. The ticket office at the station closes at 7 o’clock in the evening. If you are in a hurry the next day, you can buy the earliest bus the next day one day in advance. The seat is fixed, so you don’t have to worry about not having a ticket the next day. Go directly to Osaka Hankyu Sanbangai 3. It was my first time to bring my elders to Japan, so I booked a night and two meals. In fact, it is completely possible for young people to return home during the day. It only takes half an hour to get to Kobe. About meals: I booked a Japanese-style room with 8 mats, a night and two meals, for 3,000. I was a little confused that Ctrip did not give the option of eating in the restaurant or in the house. I was told clearly that I could eat in the house after I arrived. I hope Ctrip can clarify it. It is not recommended to order drinks when eating in the house, especially soda water, because the canteen on the second floor only sells 100 or 200 yen, but it costs 660 yen when you order it during meals (I understand the price difference but I just recommend that you don’t order so much) After taking a hot spring bath, you must have a cup of milk and coffee. Milk is only sold in the canteen, which is open until 10 o'clock, and I didn’t see any vending machines selling milk, so if you like to wait for fewer people to take a hot spring bath, remember to buy it in advance and put it in the refrigerator, and put it back in the grid on the floor of the canteen for recycling after eating. About service: When we checked in and checked out, we were served by a white guy named Antonio and a Japanese uncle, both of whom were very nice. However, there are two points that I am concerned about. 1. When I called the hotel car to pick me up at check-in, I don’t know if I could see that the call was made through the Ctrip page. The staff who answered the phone just said “hello” and their attitude was rather stiff. 2. The attitude and service of the two different Japanese uncles who drove and helped with the luggage during the two pick-ups and drop-offs were completely inconsistent with the positioning of this old hot spring hotel (the official website of Kosenkaku said that its goal is to be the No. 1 hot spring hotel in Japan). They spoke stiffly and were very careless when moving the boxes. Several times our boxes fell heavily to the ground. About hot springs: There are two hot springs in the hotel. The one on the left is the traditional-looking <Iwafuro> which is changed for men and women every day, and the one on the right is the relatively modern <Hakkyodo> which is not changed every day, and each has a gold bath and a silver bath. It is recommended to take a bath on the first day of check-in and the second day, because one of the rock baths is very stuffy and filled with smoke. The other one has "Reisen" written on the stone, which is more recommended. The octagonal hall is said to be outdoors, but it is actually covered by a curtain, and there is not a very open view.
