6/10 Good

The location is great and the private onsen rooms are amazing if you are not comfortable using an onsen in front of everyone else. However, the food was NOT GOOD, it was mostly raw fish and flavourless broths that all tasted the same and cost like $30,000 yen for two people. They also didn’t provide extra pillows when asked which is crazy given the price you have to pay. It was also loud all night and the people upstairs kept us up all night.

Loved the stay at Hotel Hanakoyado! Booked a one night stay to experience the private Onsen at the hotel and 100% it was an enjoyable experience! The plan I booked came with breakfast, and the meal was so satisfying! If I were to visit Arima Onsen again in the future, I will definitely be choosing this hotel!

This was the best stay on our 14 days in Japan! The hospitality was above and beyond our expectations. Truely five stars! Manager Mr. Mamiya Haruhi and his staff welcomed us and attended to our every needs, again above and beyond our expectations. Food and service were of highest quality. The hot springs were relaxing. Although steep, the area around this traditional Japanese hotel was very walkable. We only wish we had stay more than one night.

It was a wonderful one-night stay, including both dinner and breakfast. The dining experience was perfect, with authentic Japanese food and excellent service. The private hot spring at the hotel was fantastic, and the public hot spring at 'Tosen Kosyobo' was also a delightful experience. I look forward to visiting Hanakoyado again very soon.

Very nice place to stay, it feels like having a lot of history. The Onsen is great! The private bath is big. I think the hotel is also good for people with disabilities or elderly too, I can see those equipments. Must reserve the dinner too, the meal is wonderful!

Amazing. The service is above expectation. I've been coming here for more than six years because the entire experience is phenomenal--everything from the meal, to the rooms, to the service and the onsen/hot spring is very soothing.

Two in-hotel hot tubs were small but clean. Rooms were also comfortable. Staff was helpful during check in but what struck me most was when we were leaving two employees came out and bowed to us. Really surprised me even after multiple trips to Japan. Would live again if I ever find myself in Arima Onsen again :)

It was a tranquil experience with friendly staff and an old atmosphere. Wearing yukata was also a new experience. If I go on a trip to Kobe again, I would love to visit there.

This ryokan was recommended by a Japanese coworker and our stay at Hotel Hanakoyado was exquisite. We were only able to stay one night, because it was booked up when we had planned to go earlier in our trip. We ended up staying here the night before our flight home and it was just the decompression we needed for our long flight the next day. The staff was so helpful and friendly, and you could really tell they took a lot of pride in their work. The meals were delicious. We especially loved dinner, and the Charcoal Grilled Kobe Beef really just melts in your mouth. We booked the room with the private onsen because that was the only room available and I was determined to stay here (since it was so highly recommended) and it was absolutely worth it and very relaxing. They also handle booking and transportation to a massage parlor nearby. We did an aromatherapy full-body massage and slept like babies that night. I am absolutely looking forward to visiting this place again. Thank you so much for your hospitality. Note: I would book directly through the website for this inn because expedia overcharged us

Beautiful well kept wooden building, very quaint and private onsens, two of them, is awesome and it melts all the aches away. Dinner is 8 courses, carefully prepared n well executed, and tasted delicious too! Breakfast is equally good. Will come back.

8/10 Very good

Overall, only stayed here for a night and actually booked it thinking it was a ryokan, but it was just a hotel. Got a half board and the dinner was pretty great, honestly on tier if not as tasty as my ryokan half board from the night before. Breakfast the next day was kind of a miss, but dinner was solid and the private onsen was a nice and relaxing experience, especially since the water is from the local hot springs! Also luggage forwarded for the first time this trip and I am currently in Osaka and got my luggage so that was successful! Staff were very kind and although one of the guys (in glasses, super nice but forgot his name) didn’t always understand me, translation apps made it pretty simple. Would recommend - especially for the price - in contrast to my ryokan which felt the same as here but for $120 more a night.

10/10 Exceptional

It's our first time at an onsen ryokan, and overall it was a very pleasant stay! The receptionist that greeted us spoke English well and was very clear at explaining the facilities and answering any questions we had. She asked clarifying questions about our food preference so that adjustments can be made to the meals. My friend doesn't eat any raw food, we both don't eat spicy, and they made note of that. The Kaiseki ryori dinner was delicious. I mentioned I liked sashimi and I'm ok with raw food, so I got sashimi while they served cooked fish to my friend. I also got onsen tamago and they made egg rolls for my friend. The private onsen looks a bit old and it was a bit small (it's just the right size for 2 people in each tub), but you do get to try both the Kin no yu and Gin no yu as they have two tubs in there, so it's a nice experience for people who are not comfortable in public onsen setting. You could also go to the public onsen at their main branch before 10pm. We requested for a room on the upper floor, and it's nice and quiet. We had a good rest. The window view faces other buildings. The upper floor is only accessible by stairs though so people with mobility issues should request for lower floor. I would recommend this ryokan to people who are new to the onsen experience! Unfortunately it was too windy so we couldn't ride the Rokko-Arima Ropeway on this trip...
