The Holy ceremony was sacred and the meals was hit by mouth. I really want to stay for a few days if I have a chance.

This was a wonderful stay and Koyasan is an absolutely beautiful place. The monks were extremely accommodating, laid out all of the rules for us and times, and the room itself was the exact experience we were looking for from a temple experience.

Cool experience to stay in these lodgings. There is a heater in the room but the halls and bathrooms are pretty cold when it’s not warm out. The bath is amazing, so hot and relaxing. The morning prayers were very cool to experience. You do sleep on traditional futons and pillows, so if you’re picky about your pillow you might want to bring your own. The garden in the middle of the temple is beautiful as is the front garden. The check-in window is pretty small so I’d recommend working this into your trip when you’re coming from somewhere close. We came from Lake Ashi and it was very stressful trying to travel from that far away and make the check-in time. Overall I would definitely recommend staying here!

It’s worth noting that this is not a normal hotel but a traditional pilgrim’s lodging, so it is expected that you sleep on a mat on the floor and the facilities are relatively basic. You are staying here for the experience. The property was clean with onsen (hot bath) provided and our room had its own toilet/sink. Our only complaint is that they no longer serve food and we were not notified of this despite this being part of our booking, however we found a restaurant for dinner walking distance away and had a delicious meal.

I stayed at two temples in Koyasan and this one was much inferior to the first one. They do not serve any meals. The staff was not very welcoming and cordial. They only offer one option to bath at night and nothing the morning. They also only offer one temple experience in the AM at 6:30. They were not helpful to assist visitors to determine where to sit and how to participate in the service. Would suggest you do your research in choosing a temple. The price was very good and I guess one gets value for what was the price.

This location is so quiet and serene. It was a privilege to watch the monks morning prayers.
Rooms were large. Location was walkable to the various sights.
I misunderstood the webpage when I booked and thought that dinner and breakfast were included but no meals are served here. I’m not sure if it is the time of year or whether it is always the same but local restaurants seemed to only be open from 9 to 4.

No hay buena atención, no brindan agua caliente para beber un té a pesar del frío. Al momento de irnos llovía, hacia frío, pero no nos ofrecieron llamar a un taxi. Decepcionada.

We were here for the temple stay experience which was in our bucket list, so had accepted the high cost for the nights stay as one of those things.
Accommodation is sparkling clean and new, but very very basic. Public bath is small and very basic.
There is no shower available in the morning at all. Food was good at dinner and breakfast - all Japanese. Service was very good.
The prayer ceremony started bang on time, and was just about half an hour. It was as expected, something to experience.
Property is in a fantastic location so close to all attractions of Koya making it possible to stay one night and see everything. Although curfew after 9pm is noted in the website, they must have succumbed to the pressures of tourists, we were told the small gate is open all night. During our stay, we noticed that there was not one Japanese tourist...
They were happy to let us leave our car until check in time as well as a couple of hours after check out.
The staff were perfectly efficient and helpful, if a bit stiff - as can be expected of monks...

We had a good garden view, and the temple provided everything needed. Everything is maintained and cleaned well. Morning prayer was a unique experience definitely worth joining. Hot bath is nice. However, the food will not suit everyone's taste.

Thought that futon would be very uncomfortable. But the futon is very soft, and at night, the area is so quiet. That I haven't slept so well for so long.
The public bath is good too. It warmed me up after a long day outside in the cold weather.

As a Syukubo, a Monastery offering travelers boarding and an insight into their daily life, rooms are equipped only with the most necessary items. However, this is expected as the monks are living a very simple life style. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. We were greeted and welcomed into their home with rice cakes and a cup of tea. There are no options to dine but guests are invited to join the morning prayers and receive a blessing for safe travels before leaving.

Eine preisgünstige Tempel Übernachtung mitten in koyasan. Alle wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeitrn sind fussnah oder mit dem Bus zu erreichen. Die Haltestelle ist direkt vor der Tür. Die Zimmer sind typisch japanisch. Wobei das einfach nicht meins ist. Ein futon auf dem Boden ist für mich zum Schlafen einfach zu hart. Das Kissen war auch sehr unbequem. Aber das ist persönliches empfinden. Die gemeinschaftsbäder waren sauber. Insgesamt war es im ganzen Tempel sehr kalt. Im Zimmer gab es eine Klima, die ich die ganze Nacht durchlaufen lassen musste, weil es doch sehr kalt war (trotz Mai).

Det var en fantastisk oplevelse. Min kæreste og jeg forstår slet ikke nogle af de dårlige anmeldelser. Det var autentisk og roligt. Vi sov rigtig godt og havde alt vi skulle bruge. Badet var højdepunktet for os, hvor vi kunne hoppe i hot tubbet efter en lang dag. Fællesbadet er delt op i mænd og kvinder, og har rigtig fint og de gange vi benyttede det var der blot en enkelt person eller vi havde hele badet for os selv. Vi er helt oppe at køre over en dejlig oplevelse i Koyasan, og vi kan klart anbefale det!
