Overall Ratings & Reviews Negiya Ryofukaku

I loved the decor of my bedroom - little Japanese touches which made it feel special. The location was also excellent and easy to find, being close to the Gion corner and 10 minutes walk or so to the train station, shrines and shops. The staff were also very helpful and the free breakfast (of rolls and pastries) was perfect.

Fantastic! Negiya is a traditional ryokan steeped in history and natural beauty. My stay was peaceful and relaxing. The guesthouse was excellent, and I appreciated the extra efforts of its staff. I loved the their baths and hot springs. I'll be back!

Quiet surrounding nice public&private hot spring (“gold”&” silver “). Food/meals are perfect.

This is my 2nd time staying here. 1st time was booked under my cousin name. I loved the friendly and welcome approached when reached the hotel entrance. They really treated us as super VIP when check in with little sweet and tea. I liked here because they have in room Onsen which i can do in privately in my room, any time and many times. I did not order any dinner, but 7-eleven and family mart is walkable. Grab and go back hotel and eat. You may ask them to send you out or pick you up but we did not use it as we want to walk around the town. The breakfast set was super good too, which we enjoyed very much. The dining room is quiet and peaceful when having breakfast. Definitely, will come back if i coming to Arima again.

This was the first time visited Arima. Negiya was a lovely place to stay. A traditional inn with lots of history. Staff were nice and the hot spring superb.

Easy access and beautiful surandings

This place is a gem. Beautiful, relaxing, special property.

This is an old hotel that has an incredible charm to it. They have curated the experience in a beautiful way and both onsens in the hotel were beautiful, clean, and relaxing. The service was excellent, as were the meals. We loved our corner room, it was incredibly spacious and the view is spectacular.

When we arrived the staff greeted us and gave us a warm welcome. The check in was fast and then we were lead to our room. The staff explained all the onsens available as well as giving us a tour. We enjoyed the Kaiseki dinner (reservation ahead was req) and the private onsen. I will definitely be back and recommend this place to our friends and family

Gorgeous room with an incredible hinoki bath outside. Our stay was especially magical with the snow softly drifting down as we soaked in the bath, very romantic.

Loved the private bath

Pleasant ryokan with welcoming and accomodating staff, only issue is that it is on top of a hill and I mostly walked up the hill instead of taking the bus

Amazing staff and the outdoor onsen was a huge bonus. The facility also had a onsen occupancy status, so you know when it is empty or not crowded and can go then.

Beautiful building, with the friendliest staff and the warmest hospitality. A stay to remember at Arima Onsen.

Very lovely onsen with beautiful views, dinner and breakfast were very tasty and traditional.

The property was very well organized and well maintained. The environment is very welcoming, english-speaking and tourist friendly. The complimentary breakfast was excellent. The Ibuki room has the best view.

Beyond my expectations. Ryokans are always going to be older but they kept this place in wonderful shape and it’s super clean. I was blown away by the library lounge — definitely the highlight of the ryokan. Kaiseki dinner was amazing and the staff were superb.

The location is beautiful

A traditional onsen hotel in Arima. Staff were great and helpful who helped us with the heavy luggage up and down the hotel’s pebble staircase amid heavy rain. Great compliments to the amazing staff! But the biggest issue was, we found hair in the bed when first turned down the bedding. This was shockingly scary and caused my sleep to be disturbed. First time seeing this in a Japanese hotel, in my over 30 visits to the country.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Ms Izumi provided detailed instructions during the check-in procedure. The onsen facilities were excellent - exactly what we needed to relax and enjoy the amazing surroundings. The kaiseki dinner on the 1st night and the Kobe beef on the 2nd night were excellent. We would definitely return to stay.
