Arima Onsen Tosen Goshobo
Founded in the 12th century and beloved by Junichiro Tanizaki and other Japanese novelists, Tosen Goshobo is the oldest of the hot-spring inns at Arima. Next to the Taki River, it features outdoor hot-spring baths and traditional in-room meals and is a 5-minute walk from Arima Onsen Train Station. The Japanese rooms have traditional futon beds and a minibar.
The 20 rooms at Arima Onsen Tosen Goshobo include tatami (woven-straw) floors and shoji paper screens. Guests can relax at the sitting area and enjoy the zen atmosphere with a cup of green tea. Bathing facilities are shared.
Right next to the Hankyu Highway Bus station, the ryokan is a 3-minute walk from the Arima Toys and Automata Museum. Zuihoji Park is half a mile away. Shin-Kobe Shinkansen Station is a 45-minute train ride from the property.
After going hiking, guests can recover with a massage. A library-salon and tea-ceremony-style open-air bath are on site.
Bar Poco D'Ouro features excellent Japanese sake and an international selection of wines. Breakfast is Japanese-style, and dinner features specialties such as Kobe beef, fresh fish from Akashi-Ura port, and black-bean tofu.
