텐도 아리스
장점:기노사키 마을의 딱 중간 부분이라 이동하기 좋은 편, 온천이 남 녀 하루마다 교대로 위치가 달라져서 총 두개 스타일의 온천을 즐길 수 있음, 직원분들 친절함, 깨끗함,
단점:방 마다 다르지만 운 없다면 주방 바로 앞 배정인데 조금 소리가 들릴 수도.. 말고는 특별히 단점은 없는 편
굳이 찾는다 해도 로비 휴식 공간이 큰 편은 아닌 것..?

M.Sim007Service quality of the staffs are 10/10. All staffs are attentive and multi tasking, they are reception, cooks (breakfast) concierge and house keeping. We stayed for two nights in a quadruple room facing the river, huge size and comfortable beds. Night was quiet and dont hear any foot steps though it is a building erected on old structure. Breakfast is typical Japanese ryokan style breakfast of excellent presentation and quality. Recommended for couples with no children and nit suitable for elderly or disabled, need to climb up 3 storeys if stayingnin the 3rd flood. Location is 10/10, 10mins by foot to JR station and 20 mins walk to the ropeway with shops along the way. Highly recommended!

Miya took care of us so well. He kneeled the entire time while serving us tea and talking with us. He drove us to the station and even went above and beyond to help with our luggage and take pictures for us.
1. Wonderful staff — especially Miya.
2. Colored yukata are free, and the onsen pass is also included. They provide separate yukata for sleeping and for wearing around the hotel/onsen town.
3. Around 6 PM, the staff comes to set up your futon for you. They also bring an ice-cold pitcher of water to your room.
4. They have 2 onsens (one on the 1st floor and one on the 2nd floor). The men’s and women’s baths alternate depending on the time.
5. They offer a shuttle service to the furthest onsen and to the station — just let them know what time you’d like to go.
6. The breakfast is THE BEST! There’s so much food and variety, and everything is very clean and fresh.
7. They give you a pamphlet to collect stamps, and once completed, you receive a souvenir afterward (a pair of wooden chopsticks).
8. They also have fancy hair dryers here (Dyson, ReFa, etc.).
The onsen town experience itself was amazing, but honestly, it’s the service and hospitality at the hotel that will make me want to come back again someday.
Thank you all the staff. Staying in such a beautiful place surrounded by breathtaking views and genuinely kind people has been such a memorable experience.

General impression:
This is a super decent house with an excellent view of the kinosaki village. You could feel the management put lots of efforts to maintain the best comfort of every guest and the whole team operated under warm & effective process.
While we are having breakfast or dinner in the dining area, their staff make a very efficient turn to change our yukata, towels, bottles of water, making up mattress on our room.That impressed us so much!
Onsen quality:
The onsen inside the house is well managed and run until mid night. We can go outside with the free pass of public onsens, but we also enjoy ourselves in the in-house onsen because of more accessories provided there. You can feel the onsen owner care about guests more than the public onsens outside.
Dining experience:
We enjoyed the half board experience for 2 nights, especially the 2nd night with the tajima beef sukiyaki. The flavors & taste feed us well. Though breakfast is a bit simple, but we could make up some room in our stomach to enjoy snacks or ice-cream in the village.
My friend & I would definitely give 5 star rating to Yamamotoya, and will recommend our friends to visit you again.

The hotel service and environment are excellent, offering a free shuttle service from the station to the hotel. The meals and private hot springs are highlights, making for a perfect overnight stay with two meals.
The entire hot spring town also has six public hot spring pools, each with its own unique features. There are many charming little shops along the street to explore, offering a tranquil escape from the city's hustle and bustle, allowing you to relax and rejuvenate!

Date of Stay: January 24-25
Number of Guests/Purpose: 2 people, Sightseeing
Overall Rating: B
Pros:
* The room was clean and looked exactly like the photos.
* Wi-Fi was available.
* Check-in was smooth.
* Rental service for boots and umbrellas was provided.
* Came with tickets for touring Kinosaki Onsen, and the room had a convenient onsen set for taking out.
* There are private baths within the building.
Cons:
* The room felt a bit old.
* At night, hotel staff were loudly arguing outside the annex, which left a bad impression.
Location/Surroundings:
* About a 10-minute walk from the station. It felt a bit of a walk, but being in the center of the onsen town made access to all hot springs excellent.
Host's Service:
* Friendly and good service.
Summary:
Considering the price and location, it was good. However, it's not somewhere I'd definitely want to stay again, but rather I'd be interested in trying other ryokans next time.

Guest UserEnjoyed our stay and experiencing our first onsen and kaiseki!
They provided us with yukatas and passes to access the public baths, also had 3 private onsens on site.
Friendly staff, lots of food included in the dinner and breakfast which they serve in your room and set up/pack up your bedding, with option for continental breakfast on our 2nd day instead of japanese style.
Quiet, clean and futon bed was surprisingly comfortable.
It’s about 8min walk from the train station which was fine for us but there’s a bus shuttle option right outside the station, and the hotel also offer bag drop off for a small fee when you leave so you don’t need to carry them.
It’s close to the ropeway that you can ride up for nice views. Also right near the best public onsen in our opinion. (Be sure to check the onsen hours we missed out on one and note 2 are currently closed for renovations).
A few things worth noting - breakfast is served early, you can pick 8 or 8.30am. If you are sensitive to light, it’s not completely dark when sleeping, sun comes through the windows as it has the traditional paper screen style. Also there in not a shower in your room, you need to use the onsen showers (either the private ones on site which you can’t book so can’t guarantee availability but both times we wanted to use them we were able to, or at the public onsens.)
Overall we would recommend staying here to treat yourself to some peaceful rest and relaxation.

ShaneWangTraditional hotel with amazing beauty. The reception was super friendly and helpful with our check in as well as bringing our car to the designated car park. Parking was included in our hotel price too. Walkable distance to all the onsens in the area, and they provide all the neccessary uniforms and towels as well. Amazing stay. One of the best I've stayed in Japan.

Ethan 0This hotel is located one street off the main street, making it quieter. On the main street, you'd likely hear a lot of clogs. The landlady, an older lady, is very friendly, even though she only speaks Japanese. The inn offers free private onsen, but I'd suggest skipping it and saving your time for the public onsen. The inn has a family-like feel and provides free clogs and yukata for going out.

The accommodation is right next to the train station, making travel super convenient – I loved it! I really enjoyed that the hotel offered foot baths and provided yukata and toiletries for the onsen. They also let us store our luggage. The room was beautifully Japanese-style! All the amenities in the room were easy to use, and there was a fridge with drinking water, which I really appreciated. However, on that particular day, since I was traveling soon, I had a large suitcase with me. Unfortunately, there was no elevator, so I had to carry my heavy luggage up to the third floor myself. It was incredibly tiring, but fun overall! 💖
