Legend has it that the Arima Hot Spring was discovered by the ancient gods and that it was inherited from an era of myths and legends. The Arima Hot Spring is the oldest hot spring in Japan and the name of the Hot Spring itself dates back to at least the Man-yohshu, the oldest anthology of Japanese poetry. Today, the Arima Hot Spring still displays long-continued traditions and glory. The KINZAN, wrapped in a veil of mist and steam in the mountains and subtle changes of the seasons, presents you with eternal peace of mind. The KINZAN is the most prestigious Japanese classic style hotel in Arima with a beautiful appearance and sukiya atmosphere created from the tea ceremony structure of the building. We welcome you with our delicate hospitality, the kind of which can be found in the spirit of the tea ceremony.
