Tsukie No Fune

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!

My best stay during my honeymoon trip to Japan. Booked this room because of the private onsen in the room. Inside there are 4 rooms but we're only 2 people 😆 Location a bit secluded, but the provide shuttle so no worries

Good and staff very friendly

There are staff speaking English and Putonghua. Staff are very helpful.

喜歡日式温泉酒店的一泊二食，月之舟的晚餐料理“月舟會席”精緻美味又健康，A5和牛新鮮刺身，松茸蔬菜，餐前柚子酒，餐後有芝士蛋糕布丁和冰淇淋來收尾，非常好吃，酒店提供的2次私湯也很滿意，酒店有位會説中文的叔叔，可以電話酒店幫忙接送客人來回有馬温泉巴士站，很棒的體驗，推薦。

房間足夠大，日式榻榻米居然有二張床還是比較貼心，辦理入住儀式感滿滿，泡私湯時間足夠體驗良好。晚餐會席料理高級感強儀式拉滿，非常滿足，早餐全日式品種豐富足夠。唯一遺憾的是，通過攜程免費網絡電話與酒店聯繫，被再三確認是當天入住客人，還是告知下午三點前不提供接站服務，無奈在高温中沿上山坡度路，拖着行李箱步行二公里左右去酒店已是滿頭大汗，暫存行理後再離開酒店去遊覽小鎮，如果酒店能體現一定靈活性的話，因在巴士站點看到過酒店的接送車，再有酒店有不少印度員工，出現了用早餐與原定餐廳錯誤和泡私湯重疊，好在及時用贈送一次泡私湯來彌補，如果沒有以上遺憾就非常完美了。
