Stayed in August 2021

I drove there from Aichi. Before going to ryokan, I ate Kobe beef for lunch and went to a stylish cafe. The summer-only iced coffee looks great ♡

Arrive at the inn

Nestled in the mountains of Arima
Arrive at "Moonlight Garden"

"Gekkouen Yugetsu Sanso" is nestled in the quiet mountains at the back of Arima onsen town. A pure Japanese-style wooden ryokan surrounded by greenery is full of emotion. At the lobby lounge, you can enjoy a relaxing cup of tea while gazing at Mt.

Room15:15

Healed by pure Japanese style
Nostalgic guest room

There are 40 guest rooms in total. All rooms are Japanese-style, and the calm atmosphere makes them feel like a hideaway. There are also luxuriously designed room types, such as "Kyokusuitei" with an open-air bath. The view from the garden is soothing.

We stayed in a 12 tatami mat Japanese-style room with an open-air bath. The scenery from the open-air bath is also full of nature and healed ♡

Freetime16:00

A yukata figure shines
Shooting time at Moonlight Bridge

The “Moonlight Bridge” that connects the lobby building and the guest room building is a photo spot that the inn is proud of. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery that changes depending on the season, such as cherry blossoms, autumn leaves, and snowscapes. Enjoy taking photos as a memory of your trip.

I changed into a yukata and took a walk around the building! Speaking of "Gekkouen", "Takikawa" and "Moonlight Bridge" are the highlights. I took a photo♪

Extraordinary moments

Guests can use the private baths of the sister building Korokan. You can choose from 3 types of baths: cypress bath, cave bath, and wine bath. You can have a lively conversation with the two of you in this unusual bath.

Dinner19:00

Buffet for in in-room dining
I like dinner

Dinner will be served at in-room dining or half buffet at the restaurant. The dinner served in your room is an elegant Japanese kaiseki course, which is served one dish at a time. There are also luxurious courses such as grilled Kobe beef and sashimi of lobster, perfect for special occasions.

Due to the corona misfortune, I chose to in-room dining. The main meat was very tender and delicious!

Breakfast08:00

Satisfied from the morning

Breakfast is a Japanese/Western buffet, or a Japanese meal to enjoy in your room. The popular buffet features healthy dishes made with locally grown vegetables and rice flour bread from Sanda rice, making it a very satisfying morning treat.

Breakfast was also in-room dining, so I was happy from the morning that I could enjoy it at my own pace!
