Hankyu Sanbangai in Umeda, Osaka, is the terminal for highway buses to Arima Onsen and Shikoku, five minutes from the New Hankyu Hotel. Tickets can be bought at on-site machines or through online booking, and tickets for the return from Arima to Umeda can be purchased at the same time. The gate is about three minutes from the Hankyu Umeda third-floor ticket gates, and an announcement is made ten minutes before departure. First-time visitors find the platforms hard to locate even with signs.
