Kinosaki Onsen

Kinosaki Onsen is a traditional Japanese hot spring town located 2.5 hours from Kyoto and Osaka by JR express train. The town boasts 7 public hot springs and over 80 ryokans (traditional inns). Guests staying a ryokan get a free pass to the onsens. They can experience wearing traditional yuakta and strolling around this quaint town.

I visited this venue after seeing it on NHK I can say it definitely feels like it’s gone back in time. It has at least seven onsens If you stay in the hotels in the area you get a pass which can visit all 7 for free. The shops offer different things for sale but they can be quite expensive as they are handmade items. The restaurant is closed at two different times once it will close around 5 pm and the other set opens around 8 pm and closes at 11 They seem to be old time activities to do like shooting corks out of a gun to get prizes It is Worth coming here especially during night time as it is beautiful and if your hotel allows it as mine wanted, you can wear the traditional Japanese garments to walk around the streets in The train station is called Kinosaki And if you have the JR pass the trip is mostly going to be free for you via train

Arima Onsen

Reviewed By Nicoleng23 - Singapore, Singapore

It’s a small town with the famous gold and silver onsen. There are many public onsens within the ryokan. Can come for a day trip here buses from Osaka, Kobe and the airport too. Not too touristy place just nice to walk around.

Gosho no Yu

Goshono-yu is closed indefinitely due to necessary construction. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Reviewed By Go_See_Write_000 - Bangalore District, India

Kinosaki Onsen Town is famous for it’s 7 Hot Springs bath. We visited Goshono-yu, also known as the “Water of Beauty”, brings luck in love and protects you against fires. No inside photos available as photography is strictly prohibited for keeping the sanctity. Japanese onsens, or communal hot springs, adhere to ancient traditions which include bathing as we were born. It is bit awkward initially to bare it all in front of strangers but once you are in the atmosphere you let go all the shyness and feel relaxed while you engulf yourself. For Japanese, the onsen is a healing sanctuary. Highly recommended for a wonderful experience.
