About iris bath
The origin of taking iris baths on Children’s Day is deeply connected to the history of Boy’s Festival. Boy’s Festival is
It originated in ancient China as an event to ward off evil spirits. In ancient China, May marks the rainy season.
It seems that they used irises, whose strong scent was said to ward off evil spirits, as it would increase the risk of illness and misfortune.
Also, it seems that iris was not only used as iris bath, but also soaked in alcohol and drunk.
The custom of using irises for Boy’s Festival was introduced to Japan. During the Heian period, the Boys’ Festival was held as an event in the imperial court. At the Boys’ Festival, people wear strongly scented irises,
I also decorated it with hardened irises. From the Kamakura period to the Edo period,
Boy’s Festival is recognized as an event for boys. At that time, it was a samurai society, so
I hope that the boy will grow up to be strong and strong as the irises are decorated with words such as “game” and “shogun”.
The Boy’s Festival continues to this day, preserving the customs of that time.

[Introduction to Kosenkaku]
“Arima Onsen Motoyu Kosenkaku” is one of the few hot spring inns in Arima Onsen that boasts Kyoto-style kaiseki cuisine that has its own hot spring source.
Located on a quiet hill overlooking the Tamba mountain range, away from the hot spring town, it is an environment where you can slowly heal your mind and body.
We offer Japanese cuisine made with carefully selected ingredients, including in-room meals that can be enjoyed in each Japanese-style room with a different taste.
Spending time at the restaurant’s hall seats is perfect for couples who want to cherish their time together.
It is also popular with families with small children.
The “Iwaburo”, which has a good old-fashioned atmosphere with its natural hot spring water, has been popular since its establishment without changing its appearance.
In 1997, a large public bath with an open-air bath in Kinsen called “Hakakudo,” and in 2021, a spacious family-friendly guest room. We are repeating trial and error in order to complete the “Suite Room” and continue to provide new value to everyone.
Although it is located on the premises of Kosenkaku, it operates as a log house type accommodation facility that contrasts with the Japanese atmosphere.
“The Lodge ARIMA RESORT” is a rental lodge with a Jacuzzi bath and loft bedroom. We offer a private space with the feel of a villa, which is a little different from hotels and inns.
In addition to an indoor pool and BBQ plan open only in the summer, there is also a Western restaurant on the premises.

It is popular with families with children and day trip bathers. Arima Onsen, where Kosenkaku and The Lodge ARIMA RESORT are located, is about 60 minutes from Osaka and Kobe.
