Really nice staff who explain the culture and history of Koyasan really well! I recommend booking with breakfast and dinner included as the food is amazing and unique and you won't find it anywhere else in Japan!

The area around the property is so beautiful! I loved waking up in the morning & seeing the forest outside. My room was very clean and the front desk service very friendly. I really enjoyed the dinner & breakfast service (everything tasted amazing!~) and the morning meditation ceremony was memorable. Everyone at the temple are so kind and helpful.

Beautiful place to stay in Kōyasan, the food is very good and the monks and staff are so kind and attentive. I recommend staying here for an authentic Buddhist temple experience. And don’t miss the morning prayer.

Wonderful traditional stay
This was a wonderful traditional ryokan temple stay. The food was excellent. The onsen was tranquil. The room was spacious and futons very comfortable. The english speaking gentleman (who worked w the temple) was knowledgeable, passionate and eager to answer questions.

Nice experience for a change, but not comfortable for older people. Hotel like a temple with monks serving meals on their exact times. All veggie Japanese style made with care. Halfboard overpriced.

Sayaka San was wonderful, friendly, attentive and professional. She became our Japanese grand daughter.😏😆

10/10 Exceptional

A wonderful experience. This is a Buddhist temple offering a 'luxury' retreat complete with a gourmet style vegetarian dinner and breakfast. If you have any interest in Buddhism this will for you. Lot's of great places to explore by foot. Went in December and the snow turned the place into a beautiful landscape. The town itself can be a little touristy but so is the Vatican! Highly recommended - but be respectful of the religious context of this location.

このロケーションと雰囲気は、この世のものとは思えないほどです。とても印象的でした。高野山周辺の宿泊施設に何度か行ったことがあります。この場所の食事と浄化のレベルは、改善の余地があると思います。でも、全体的には、宿泊して瞑想するにはいい場所だと思います。
