"We stayed in a room that had a silver spring onsen in the room. It had a kitchen in it as well and the pictures don't do it justice. It is huge with everything you need. The coffee maker is Espresso. They refill the capsules on request but if you have favorite capsules, bring some to enjoy. From our first contact with hotel personnel, we had an excellent experience. Very friendly, hospitable staff. We also used the hotel onsens on both the first floor and the fourth floor. All were impeccable and both the gold and silver onsens were very soothing. The onsen in the room is basically for one person at a time but plenty big enough for one person with a nice headrest designed into the marble spa tub. The hotel van is always available within a few minutes and the drivers are happy to take you anywhere in the Arima area. I recommend the ropeway. It is a BEAUTIFUL journey over the forested mountain. Not to be missed. Another bonus is the coffee/tea/juice bar in the lobb that also has delicious hot cocoa - and on the end of the bar is a freezer with small ice cream bon bons. Yum. Great place to go in the evening. It may seem that the hotel breakfast is expensive given most prices in Japan - but the breakfast is almost more than you can eat and is in the gourmet class. Definitely worth the money. Super tasty and very filling. Each person receives two large trays of various Japanese breakfast dishes. This hotel is smaller than most in the Arima area - more quiet and private."
