Guest reviews· 9.1/10 (216)

Arima Grand Hotel consistently receives high praise from guests, who frequently describe their stay as an "amazing experience" and a "supremely relaxing retreat." A standout feature for many is the "best onsen experience in Japan," complemented by a "nice property" that contributes to a relaxing atmosphere. The hotel's staff are frequently highlighted as "even greater" than the already impressive facilities, providing "excellence services" that enhance the overall guest experience.

Guests appreciate thoughtful amenities like access to an executive lounge, vending machines, and upper floors accessible by elevator. The presence of tatami flooring in rooms adds to the authentic Japanese feel, and a unique point of praise was the availability of a drying rack for clothing, indicating attention to guest convenience.

While the vast majority of feedback is overwhelmingly positive, one recurrent constructive comment noted disappointment regarding the unavailability of dinner areas, suggesting this is an area where the hotel could improve the guest experience. Despite this minor point, the Arima Grand Hotel generally excels in providing a superb and relaxing spa hotel experience.
