For the two who are exhausted from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, we recommend an escape to Arima onsen. If you soak in a famous hot spring while surrounded by elegant buildings and rich nature, you will be released from reality and your mind and body will be healed. A quiet and luxurious time with no one to disturb you. From Hideyoshi Toyotomi to Grace Kelly, it's a romantic experience to have the same healing experience in a place that was fascinated by great people.
Arima onsen has two types of spring water called Kinsen and Ginsen. The reddish-brown Kinsen is said to have a moisturizing effect, which is great for women! The colorless and transparent Ginsen is drinkable and is said to have the effect of stimulating appetite. You can enjoy the food at your destination to your heart's content.
Have you ever come to onsen to take it easy, only to be greedy and exhausted? Arima onsen is a compact onsen town, so you can walk around the attractions in about two hours. Enjoy the feeling of sightseeing in an emotional onsen town, and then relax at the inn to your heart's content. Therefore, we will introduce inns that make you want to stay.
I want to take it easy, but it's not my nature to shut myself up in my room all the time. For such a couple, a large ryokan is recommended. Why don't you take a walk in the spacious hall while feeling the seasons? Also, there are hotels with multiple onsen, lounges, bars, and even table tennis tables! You can enjoy various ways to spend your time.
"Nakanobo Zuien" is a long-established ryokan that was founded in the first year of the Meiji era. This is an adult-only accommodation that does not allow children under 13 years of age. There is a cafe and lounge inside the spacious hotel with a calm atmosphere, so you can spend a quiet and elegant time outside of your room. It's located almost in the center of onsen town, so sightseeing is easy.
You can enjoy both Kinsen and Ginsen onsen. There are two private baths (paid and free), as well as guest rooms with open-air baths where you can bathe in Kinsen or Ginsen! For couples who want to spend a luxurious time, we recommend the "Victim Room", "Japanese Modern Deluxe with Kinsen Open-air Bath", and "Western-style Twin Room with Silver Spring Open-air Bath".
For dinner, enjoy rare ingredients and seasonal dishes such as Kobe beef and wild tiger blowfish. In the "Chef's Room" where the chef shows off his skills in front of you, you can enjoy kaiseki cuisine such as iron plates and roasting kilns. The dynamic live feeling is exactly the ultimate in luxury! For couples who want to enjoy delicious food little by little, we recommend a small amount of delicious kaiseki. Another great point is that you can choose to meal in in-room dining or in a private room. For breakfast the next morning, you can choose Japanese or Western style. Brunch can be changed according to the sightseeing schedule.

Stay in a Japanese-style room with an open-air bath. It was clean and quiet, and the futon was thick and fluffy, and even I, a pregnant woman, slept well.
