2-Star Hotels in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan

There is no breakfast nor dinner provided by this onsen hotel, and restaurants close a bit early. If you’re looking for an onsen meal, you maybe disappointed if you staying here. Beware if you’re a foodie. The sound insulation is poor, please keep your voice down. Since the first night I arrived was windy and rainy, and the curtain for blocking the sun is made of bamboo, it kept hitting on the window all night long. There is no elevators and the stairs is very steep, be careful if you bringing many luggages. Although the servers do not understand English, they are very friendly and willing to help! Overall, I enjoyed a lot while the staying. Thank you!

Traditional Japanese hotel. We slept on foot under the softest as a cloud of blankets, ate the delicious Kaiseki-style dinner (there was even a crab! ) , went to the public onsen and a small bath at the hotel. The hotel offers a yukatu, a ghetto and 2 free tickets for visits to any of the 7 Onsens. The cities of Kinosakionsen are small, but very colorful! Hotel recommended

Excellent place in terms of price/quality ratio, nice hosts, not far at all from the onsens (actually the whole town is not big), good grocery store and restaurants opposite!

It is a traditional house with traditional management. It is going to go, as it is usual in Japan, to pull the shoes forward at the entrance. You get houses. The boss is adjusted to everything is done right. You only speak Japanese but this is not an obstacle, because there is a translator. It is sleeping in a room on the ground with a flat mattress, cover and chirrish core kiss. Breakfast is also traditional. Fish, rice with raw egg and soya sows,Tea and other things. There is a magnificent onsen. A bath in itself is not there. Only washing basin and toilet extra each. The two of the guest house are very nice and helpful. We were taken to the restaurant and also picked up. Who stands or wants to experience traditional Japanese hospitality is right here.

It is a cheap Japanese-style hotel in Arima Onsen. The store is friendly and amiable. The breakfast is great and worth the money. There is a gold and silver hot spring in the store, you can go there directly and play table tennis after the bath. One thing to note is that if you have large luggage, you can discuss with the store to stay on the second floor, as there is no elevator in the hotel.

It is a hotel similar to a homestay, with tatami rooms. The service is average. Since there is no elevator, you need to lift your suitcase to the second floor and mention it to your room. The most irritating thing is the CHECK OUT part. We were told that CHECK OUT was at 11 o'clock. As a result, at 10:45, the hotel staff opened the door and asked for CHECK OUT without knocking, which was very rude.

Friendly service at the front desk, kind staff at breakfast, useful to have a washing machine and dryer, near some restaurants.

The lounge was a pleasant surprise, offering a variety of free soft drinks and alcohol, as well as tea rice as a midnight snack. The room size is considered small in Japan, but it is ok for one person. The front desk attitude is very good, with key praise!

One of the brightest experiences of our journey is 2 days in Arima Onsen. Our stay in the first minutes has painted our room: big, light and cozy. The staff remembered especially: not just polite, but caring, I forgot my jacket in the cafe and a man standing at the stop came to give it to me. Thank you very much! The hotel has its own cafe, where you can buy bakes and drink coffee, with a stunning terrace. In the room there are all necessary: a recreation area, big windows, we were offered kimono and baskets so we could go in them to the onsen. It was magnificent! The hotel has no sources, but they are literally 30 seconds on foot, or the biggest public onsen in 7 minutes on foot (but with the unusual to go to the mountain in tabi sandals is a little uncomfortable but interesting). Hotly recommend, ideally from 2 nights to enjoy the full program and slow down the journey a little bit and think about life :)

The room is comfortable, the service is intimate, close to the station, and the location is good.
