Ryokans in North Osaka

We stayed here for 2 nights, enjoyed every second of it, staff are extremely helpful, they came and pick us up af Arima Onsen station, arrived within 5 minutes of the call, staff welcomed us in the hotel with some small snack and cold tea, whilst the receptionist were explaining everything to us, our luggages were carried to our room. We booked our first private bath, extremely comfortable and private. There are public bathing as well, dinner and breakfast are also served in private dining...

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. An incredible experience that I will always remember. I cannot think of anything that was not exceptional.

We had a great experience in this hotel. The front desk staff came out from the lobby to give us a warm welcome. He also took us to our room, showed us the hotel facilities and introduced the dinner and breakfast arrangement. Dinner was kaiseki style and it was served in our room. The lady who served our dinner was attentive. She also made our bed after dinner. Breakfast was traditonal style and it was served in the breakfast room. Onsens were quite nice as well and not very crowded. They...

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Tocen Goshoboh yesterday and would highly recommend it! We arrived around 2:20 PM, which was over 30 minutes before the official check-in time, but the hotel kindly let us check in early. We booked the Japanese-Style Standard Room with No Shower Room, including breakfast for two, at a very reasonable price of AUD 500. This traditional ryokan has an incredible 800-year history, and you can truly feel the depth of culture in every detail of its design and...

From the first moment we arrived we knew it was a special place. We received a warm welcome, got escorted to our room and give welcome drinks and cookies. Our room was immaculate. We had a beautiful view of the river and our own private Japanese garden and inside and outside onsen bath. We were provided with breakfast and dinner in the kaiseki style in our own room. The food was spectacular very fresh and full of local flavours. The service was impeccable, personal and friendly. The location was...

The staff were so friendly and helpful, we loved the traditional breakfast, they were accommodating to my husband who can’t eat fish. They have a courtesy bus that takes you to Arashiyama which I didn’t know and so glad they suggested. The futons are hard but I got used to them. They also said their onsen is tattoo friendly. But most of the place is in such a spectacular forest it was so pretty in the late autumn I will definitely be going back.

We stayed for one night for the Japanese ryokan experience. Tried the Japanese style set menu - very tasty and great experience (11 courses - very filling ). Some of the staff spoke English which was a great help us us as our Japanese was limited. Our room had an outdoor private bath which was great to soak in after a few hours walking around Nara park. Getting to and from the ryokan was simple as long as you called ahead to book the courtesy shuttle which goes back and forth from the 2 Nara...

Great place with friendly helpful staff. Not a lot of English spoken but that's okay. Close to Arima's waterfall and ropeway. Nice hotspring baths including an outdoor bath. Wonderful food and drink - try the Suzune sparkling sake, it matches well with the food.

Nice little Ryokan. We had a room with private onsen and its spacious and clean. Staff were very helpful.

the hotel provides shuttle bus service which is convenient, fair bit of walk from the hotel to the main street but you won't mind if the weather is good. Dinner is served in your room. if you're not in those rooms with private hot spa you can book yourself one with additional charge but reasonable. staffs are friendly. like the message chair in the room.

You never know which one to go with when scrolling through the countless options on the Internet, but we are very glad we stayed at Asukasou. The people were genuinely friendly and helpful and the room was really nice - the best futon I've ever slept on! There is an open air rooftop bath that is a must do if you stay here. Be warned: those travelling with English only may have trouble finding this inn as the sign (I think) was only in Japanese.

Loved my 1st onsen experience. Staff were hugely welcoming, excellent layout of hotel. Loved the Japanese traditional tatami & futon bedroom, complimentary snacks and daily green tea & sweet experience. The 3 onsens where excellent, clean & offered a huge range of toiletries to use. The traditional in room multiple course dinner was amazing with Kobe beef! I would definitely visit again!
