和食 Kaiseki Cuisine

Kosenkaku’s commitment to fine cuisine begins with the selection of ingredients.
We carefully select each ingredient based on the season and its location of produce, in order to provide the finest dishes. We select ingredients not only from the local Arima region,
but also from places throughout Hyogo Prefecture,
including such places with abundant nature, such as Awajishima and Tajima.
The ingredients we procure are cooked by expert chefs
and painstaking effort is made in the presentation of such dishes.
Through this process, we provide our guests
with our highly touted Kyoto-style Kaiseki cuisine.
We also offer a course that features Kobe Beef,
which is beef that meets the strictest criteria
in Japan and that is superior to Matsuzaka Beef and Yonezawa beef in terms of quality.
Guests can choose to eat their meals in our dining hall or the comfort of their own rooms.
