A tranquil, high-end retreat nestled in Arima’s wooded hillside, Okuno Hosomichi offers intimate luxury with private onsen baths, refined Japanese aesthetics, and immersive seasonal cuisine.
MK Guide Recommends
Okuno Hosomichi translates as “The Narrow Path to the Interior,” a name that captures its quiet, contemplative atmosphere just beyond the bustle of Arima Onsen village. With only a handful of rooms—each outfitted with a private open-air onsen bath—this refined ryokan emphasizes privacy, stillness, and spiritual renewal. Every corner, from the curated seasonal flower arrangements to the handcrafted ceramics in the dining room, reflects the philosophy of omotenashi (gracious hospitality). Guests are served elegant kaiseki meals that highlight the mountain’s bounty and local traditions, while gentle music and forest views accompany moments of repose. Ideal for romantic escapes, anniversaries, or spiritual recharge, Okuno Hosomichi invites guests into a world of discreet elegance and timeless Japanese beauty.
