Tsukie No Fune

Large and clean room. Meals included are delicious. Service is great, staffs are friendly and helpful.

What an amazing stay! It exceeded all expectations. The place is super nice with design interior, rooms are warm, spacious and comfortable. The whole place is modern, yet has a very traditional authentic feel and feels serene. The staff is very attentive, caring and fulfills your every need - they make you feel welcome, and explain everything to you very well even if you are a foreigner, there was no problem communicating in english. You are guaranteed 2 private stays in the private onsen spa of your chice - one in the evening and one in the morning, the time slots are more than enough to cover guest capacity and you have choice. The public onsen is pretty awesome too, although i felt so relaxed after private onsen for so long i went there just because of curiosity lol. The dinner and breakfast are HUGE and are SUPER tasty. Excellent products and execution, it was my first time tasting a5 wagyu. I recommend you do not eat lunch before coming to the ryokan for dinner, maybe just breakfast or something small because you will want to eat everything in this amazing meal set. I still feel kind of full 1 day after checking out. The hotel has nice common areas with free beverages, board games, ping pong ans some slot machines for entertainment. You can reserve karaoke room or get massaged in the automatic massage chairs. After we chcecked in at 3pm we did not need to go anywhere away from the hotel and just enjoyed our time there. If you want to book very specific timeslots for the private spa come in at that 3pm, because people queue up 30 min before in the lobby. Although i felt this was not really necessarry because like i said, the capacity is calculated well and you are guaranteed 2 entramces with available time slots. The first time slot starts at 4pm and is in 1hr intervals - with 5 available onsens up until the night. Morning onsen had plenty of free slots. They also offer free shuttle bus and it was always quick, we even called from public telephone in Arima when before checkin and had no problems arranging pickup in english. What i wish is if they were a little bit more flexible with breakfast times, because you also reserve a time slot but it's not like it's a course meal but traditional breakfast + buffet and you have to decide at the check in, which is kind of soon to think about when you want to have morning meal, but it's not too big problem. I guess it is a way to prevent everyone rushing in 5 min before closing time like some people do. The breakfast has plenty of variety and you even get a preheated own grill! Overall, we couldn't pick a better place for our visit in Arima, we are so relaxed and it was oje of the best places we have ever been to!

Exceptional service & quality of dinner & breakfast ! Wonderful experience!

Good and staff very friendly

When I booked this hotel , it wasn’t my first choice . But after I stay at this hotel , it will be my first choice when I go back to Arima Onsen . The hotel is small but have everything you need . The big bath is nice with open air bath. The private bath is excellent but you need to booked ahead or early because it’s so nice and every guest wants to book . Highly recommended this hotel . Good food and excellent service.

這家温泉酒店是提前2個月訂的，價格很實惠。大巴下車後走700多米，有些坡度，後來才知道是可以打電話請酒店派車來接的。房間選的是朧月，面積很大，窗外有山景，房間設施用起來很舒適。他家的私湯是自家的温泉，有三個室內温泉和兩個室內温泉，室內室外可以各選一個，在頭天晚上和第二天上午各使用一次。温泉泡着很舒服，很解乏，特別是室外的，感覺能和大自然融為一體。晚餐的儀式感很強，參照西餐的流程一道道上菜，刺身、鴨肉、神户A5級牛肉都有，當然每種的量都不大，但所有的菜吃下來也飽了。日式早餐，內容也很豐富，不限量，味道很不錯。還有值得一提的是酒店有一位負責接待兼司機的日本老伯，以前在上海工作過，會講中文，態度熱情友好，服務很專業。他特地提醒我們第二天如果計劃坐大巴去京都，當天可能買不到票，最好提前一天買好。點贊一個！
