"Very nice staff, could be very helpful and sometimes frustrating but they are just doing their job and following the hotel policy. I recommend for sure. "

"Great location, comfy beds and good size bedroom. Bathroom felt quite dated, and marked down for breakfast. It felt like it was a school canteen, wouldn't recommend for the future. Ideal for USJ."

"Lovely jotel, well located for Universal Studios, plenty of food options and great travel options within easy reach"

"Got a big room for a good price. We were thinking that maybe it was too good to be true and we were right. The listing mentioned that there was wifi but we couldn’t even connect to it during the entire stay. We were not able to bring it up to staff because there was never any physical staff present. There was no clear way to communicate with online staff either. The listing also mentioned there was a washer and dryer. However, the dryer only has an air dry function with absolutely no heat. This meant that clothes would still be wet after the cycle. You’d have to hang it in the shower room and turn on the ventilation which would work only on thinner clothes. On a positive note, the room was really spacious and offered many beddings and storage spaces. It was also a 2-4 minute walk from the train station. It would have been a great experience if it weren’t for the cons."

"Everything was perfect just wish it had a couch."

"We had a wonderful stay at Arima Grand. One of our favorite parts of our trip to Japan. I highly recommend staying in a ryokan at least for a short time when you visit Japan. You are provided sized yakutas that you wear during the stay. The onsen is beautiful and not crowded. By staying here we felt a deeper connection to the Japanese culture. The included 9 course omakse is heavenly if you are open minded to try new foods including several raw dishes and usually ends with a Kobe beef entree. The included breakfast buffet with Japanese, Chinese and American items was among the best I have ever experienced. Our room was a suite with Western and Japanese elements including tatami floors with futons and elevated 2 twin beds, a separate bidet toilet from the shower area, and an included unlimited alcoholic and non alcoholic mini bar. The included meals, onsen, rooms and yakutas are WELL worth the higher cost. Service was fantastic. We enjoyed the game room for the kids and the gift shop as well. The only downside was that it is a bit off the beaten path from Kobe but we used it as a home base from our day trips to Kyoto and Osaka. Day trips on the Shinkansen from Kobe were $10 and 15-20 minute rides. It was a true luxury to be able to come home to a 9 course dinner followed by a dip in the onsen before bed. 10 out of 10!"
