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.

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.

A unique and cultural experience
A unique and cultural experience in a beautiful setting. The monks were very welcoming and accommodating and the Onsen was perfect to relax in at the end of the day. The morning prayers were well worth getting up for and the Buddhist dinner and breakfast was a real experience. We would recommend staying here whilst visiting Koyasan.

Great temple, great experience!
Very comfortable temple to live in. Bright and clean room with a Japanese style garden in balcony, and having the view of the temple’s main garden. Public bath facility is easy to access and very clean. Dinner and breakfast are extremely delicious and beautiful. Monks here are friendly and service is efficient. Over all it is a great experience and definitely worth to visit again! If you want to spend one night in Koya Mountain, I personally strongly recommend this temple.
