Arima Onsen Taketoritei Maruyama, hotel in Kobe

Taketoritei Maruyama is a nonsmoking Japanese-style accommodations featuring natural hot spring baths for private use and free Wi-Fi throughout the property.

Excellent service and staff. The private onsen rooms were wonderful and easy to book. We used the outdoor ones which were beautifully designed and quiet with fresh air. We also enjoyed the spacious suite that we stayed in which also had its own bath. The tatami room and futons were a nice touch. The property has a mini-bus shuttle to take us to points in town when we didn’t feel like walking or had luggage. Be sure to book kaiseki meals at the restaurant or try the in-room breakfast. The food is delicious.

We stayed at the room with a private hot spring bath. The room is comfortable and complimentary drinks (wine, beer and juice, various types of drinks) and snakes are provided. The meals were served in the room. Also the location is good, a walking distance to the arima onsen triangle station.

    The ryokan is small, it has only a few rooms, so you can feel private there. The food was beyond great, tasty and the portions were large. The onsen was clean, with a great outdoor pool. Since the hotel is small, you had complete privacy in the onsen. The service was top notch. The ladies took care of us like their own members of the family. I recommend this place.

    The outdoor private onsens were amazing. Booking them was easy and there was always availability. It's really not necessary to get the in-room onsen. The yukata and japanese pj's which were provided were also great quality. I now regret not buying some :) There are some great hiking trails and a hilltop shrine near the hotel, which are very quiet and secluded.

    The Japanese style room was spacious and well equipped. The check-in was super easy, and the staff were informative and friendly. The location is in the heart of Arima Onsen. Dressed in your yukata, winter jacket, and clogs (graciously supplied by the hotel), you are a few steps away from the well-known Kin no Yu Onsen and foot bath. The futons were super comfortable, too, giving you a restful nights sleep.
