Une vraie parenthèse magique ! Nous avons passé un excellent séjour à Sojiin. L’emplacement est parfait. La chambre magnifique, l’accueil très chaleureux et le repas exceptionnel. Nous serions bien restés plus longtemps !

Such a special experience!! 10/10 would recommend to anybody

Staying at Sojiin was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The atmosphere was incredibly peaceful and authentic, and the traditional dinner was absolutely delicious. This was one of the most memorable parts of our trip to Japan.

So worth the effort to get to Koyasan to experience such a tranquil stay in beautiful surroundings. The staff make you feel special indeed and the dining experience is one to remember.

非常棒

Ja

Incredible experience to stay at a shrine and be served excellent vegan food and join in prayers and meditation the following mornjng

The best experience we’ve had in Japan! Great staff really supportive. The temple is beautiful and the rooms amazing and comfortable. The dinner and breakfast are vegetarian/vegan but surprisingly delicious. Would definitely recommend and complement with a night tour to the Pkonoin cementery.

Das Zimmer war toll, ein wirklich gutes Abendessen - etwas wie wir es bisher nicht kannten. Zur Morgenzeremonie muss man sehr früh aufstehen, aber dafür ist es ein besonderes Erlebnis.

Dinning is more than expected

We had a great stay and an unforgettable experience in Koyasan. The staff was very friendly. The Buddhist dinner and breakfast were very delicious. The rooms are clean and quiet. The morning service in the temple was interesting and unforgettable. Thank you for the great experience.

Bellisima esperienza di una notte a Koyasan!

Esperienza super positiva, ottima posizione e personale super cortese! Consiglio l'escursione serale per visitare il complesso di templi! Ottimo, lo consiglio a tutti

Cannot say enough good things about this monastery. The food was top notch. So healthy and delicious. Our best meals in Japan (vegan food that will amaze you- and we are not even vegan)! The staff is so kind and welcoming. Do not miss the chanting ceremony in the morning. Loved the room with its traditional Japanese experience and garden view. Perfect location across the street from the temple complex. Don’t miss walking around it at night. Breathtakingly beautiful.

Mixes comfort with Japanese style. The staff very caring and the morning ceremony fill Buddhist gratuito al morning chanting. The food looks like work of art, though the tasting is complex and, although we are vegetarian, it was something very different.

Very expensive for a night stay and meager services/food offered

Very nice facility inside a temple. Neck high quality Japanese food for dinner.

Two wonderful nights at Soujiin, Koyasan. Beautiful property in centre of town with an authentic traditional Japanese experience. Meals are traditional Japanese, & are all vegetarian. Highly recommended!!

Our stay at Sojiin was truly the most wonderful experience. We stayed for two nights with our 10-year-old son, hoping to gain a deeper understanding of life in a Buddhist temple—and it exceeded our expectations. We attended the morning prayer ceremony at 6am, which was a peaceful and moving way to start the day. In the afternoons, we joined a meditation session led by Patrick, and also took part in his insightful evening walk around the main temple complex. Patrick was outstanding—warm, humorous, and thought-provoking. He encouraged us to reflect deeply on aspects of our own lives, and made the experience accessible and engaging for all ages. Our son enjoyed it so much he insisted on attending a second session. The Buddhist vegan cuisine was superb—beautifully prepared, nourishing, and surprisingly varied. Each meal felt like an extension of the temple’s peaceful philosophy. The entire sacred area of Koyasan is fascinating, rich in history and spiritual meaning. We left feeling inspired, reflective, and incredibly grateful for our time at Sojiin.
