Hotel Merveille Arima

Arima Onsen town can be hilly, which can be challenging if you have a lot of luggage. However, Hotel Merveille Arima is just a 1-minute walk from Arima Onsen Station, making it incredibly convenient. You can drop off your luggage before checking in and explore the town unencumbered. For a weekday stay, even for a solo traveler, you can get a room with a breakfast buffet for around 15,000 yen or more. Considering its proximity to the station and the fact that you can enjoy both the Gold and Silver Springs within the hotel, this offers incredible value for money. If you're traveling with a group, they also have Japanese-Western style rooms that are perfect for group trips. The Japanese-style rooms are also great for families with babies, making it a good choice for family travel.

Merveille Arima is conveniently located just a two-minute walk from Arima Onsen Station, and a five-minute walk from the center of hot spring town. There are manju shops and cafes lined up, making it a great place to eat while walking around. The hotel has a large public bath (with sauna) where you can enter both the "Kinsen" and "Ginsen" springs, as well as open-air bath, so you can fully enjoy hot spring atmosphere. For dinner, you can enjoy a kaiseki course made with local ingredients, including delicious Kobe beef. From autumn, there are plans available where you can eat crab sukiyaki, crab hotpot, and fugu hotpot.

If you're planning to stay with a friend in one room and only have breakfast, Merveille Arima has accommodation plans within your budget. It's close to Arima Onsen Station on the Kobe Electric Railway and convenient for strolling around the hot spring town, so you can have dinner at a restaurant in town and have breakfast at the hotel the next morning. You can enjoy both Kinsen and Ginsen springs that are unique to Arima Onsen in the hotel.

At Hotel Merveille Arima's communal bath, you can experience both of Arima Onsen's two unique spring qualities: the "Kinsenn" (Golden Spring) and the "Ginsenn" (Silver Spring). They offer special weekday-only plans that include a delicious Japanese-style dinner. With an open-air bath also available, you can fully enjoy Arima Onsen at an affordable price.

Most of the rooms have beds. The large public bath is very spacious and has a nice granite atmosphere. Also, when heading to the open-air bath, you have to walk through an outside passage surrounded by trees, which is very tasteful! The open-air bath is also a special bath, like a secret hot spring, tucked away in a secluded spot.
