I thought a shukubo would be a very simple minimalist accommodation but it was a luxurious stay. A pleasant surprise. Great staff and service, beautiful gardens, wonderful shojin meals, relaxing bath after our long hike, and a morning service in the main hall. It was a perfect experience

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Truly Magical and Unforgettable Experience! This was one of the highlights of our Japan adventure! Such a magical place, with a beautiful temple and an authentic Japanese atmosphere. Our room was very comfortable, with our own shower and toilet, and the food was absolutely outstanding! The location is fantastic, within walking distance of some of the most beautiful temples. Everything was spotless and so well organised, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay special. We...

For a truly historic and immersive stay this Temple is perfect. Near all the most significant sites in Koyasan.

Some of the other tourists were disrespectfully loud. There are locking coin laundry machines on site. Water bottle filling machine and very close to a Family Mart. The entire town is friendly and proud of their community.

Beautiful hotel, the monks attending are really nice, definitely go to the morning ceremony, it is worth it. This is near everything and very centric to all the landmarks nearby. The "beds" are pretty hard since its traditional, but its manageable for a night or two. Meals were really good, definitely don't skip them and take the chance to eat traditional monk meals.

Great experience. Location is great. Quiet and warm atmosphere. Dinner was well prepared. You have to sit down on tatami for dinner, but low chairs available. After meals, we were invited to the meditation. Morning service at 6:30 was a great way to start the day. Very nice atmosphere and it is run well. I do highly recommend.

For an European, this was like visiting the ISS. Barefoot, tatami dinner, shared bath where i was alone, night curfew which felt like sleeping in a medieval fort, morning prayer and tatami breakfast again. Plus the abundance of history all around.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Room is super clean and appears to be newly renovated. The shower is not spacious but very comfortable with strong water flow. The courtyard is absolutely beautiful. We stayed for one night before our morning flight and it fits this purpose really well.

I was pleasantly surprised with our stay. It was much nicer than I had expected and with the included breakfast buffet that had so many choices from something western to eating like a Japanese person would with local fruits and dishes. The room was comfortable and clean and with a castle view... highly recommended. There were nice restaurants in the building and we were close to many things including a bus stop to get around if taxis aren't in your budget. Wakayama city is a very different...

They have a great breakfast- Western & Japanese style. I wish they have more counter space in the bathroom.

All was excellent and we had a beautiful room. Food was very delicious

Clean room and fast internet.

Just a stay near the airport for an early departure. Early breakfast was possible! And good. And free shuttle at 6:30 am was perfect. Quiet. Nice. We’ll come again.

This is a unique experience to live in a Buddhist temple for one day. Across the street you can find the beautiful Koyasan cemetery. Pure magic. The dinner and breakfast served was magnificent. We also enjoyed the spa at night. We are truly grateful for this experience.

This was our first trip to Japan, ever, so we wanted to experience authentic and traditional Japanese hospitality, and what an amazing surprise we got. We rented the suite, which is the annex. You basically get an entire traditional japanese house, with a private onsen, all for yourself. From the moment you arrive to the ryokan, you get the warmest welcome you can imagine. You are taken to your guest house and introduced to everything around a house. They provide you with Yukatas so you can...

Very close to train station. Breakfast was good!
