I enjoyed the family room as a solo traveler, plenty of space and the heating was good for me. I chose to stay here because it was too expensive to do temple stay during New Year holiday. The staff were so helpful and the food at the attached restaurant/cafe was delicious^^ I'd love to come back and stay here on my next visit to Koyasan. Very close to bus stop for convenient transport to the top attractions in the town.

Amazing place to stay, extremely recommended. A really great experience in general - I stayed in one of the suites and could not have asked for a more relaxing and peaceful place to stay, only a short walk from Okunoin Cemetary and an easy walk to the rest of town. Very close to the bus stop from Koyasan Station. Staff were always helpful and the meals were unbelievably delicious and satisfying, even though I needed to ask for a soy-free modification. The best food I ate during my stay!

Great place to visit; just enough off of the beaten track that it felt much less crowded than other areas we visited (Nara, Kamakura, e.g.). It helped that we stayed overnight, so the following morning in particular was a great time for sight seeing.

The room was very comfortable. The temple was well kept including the cleanliness was excellent. A very worthwhile experience of Japanese history and Buddhism - a fascinating region - which I recommend to others visiting Japan.

Deeply spiritual place and one needs to remove the concept of luxury when coming here. It’s a small town and it’s easy to move around on the bus. Have lunch at Maruman and try the sesame tofu. We had the vegetarian set meal which was excellent. Visit the Koyasan cemetery and Kobo Dashi tomb. For those with good legs climb Mt Koyasan. It would be helpful if there was a meditation centre for all Non-Japanese visitors

Koyason is a magical place with beautiful spiritual atmosphere and natural beauty. I recommend this Temple stay, as well. The Monks and staff were very friendly and informative. The food was delicious. The room was nice and warm with a heater and wonderful sleeping futon.

This is a world heritage site not to be missed.

This is a world heritage site not to be missed. The kindness and quiet beauty and the FOOD were heavenly. A friend suggested we go and stay a night in a temple for the full experience, (although a day trip is fine,) and we are so glad that we did. The Buddhist Okunoin cemetery is the largest in Japan and is lit by lanterns at night for a beautiful otherworldly (but actually this world! ;) unforgettable evening walk. Beautiful temples and sacred sites to visit, and many shops and little cafes to enjoy. We stayed in the Sanboin temple and were so delighted by our experience.

Don't miss touring the cemetery.

Don't miss touring the cemetery. It is amazing with so many different types of monuments and statuary. We toured it without a guide during the day light hours and feel that we really didn't miss anything by not seeing it by moonlight. The town has an ancient feel to it and is worth spending at least one night. I just wish that there were more choices for hotels as the only choices seem to be a Guest House and a multitude of Monasteries.

Central location and great base to explore Koyasan. Morning prayer was fascinating. Lovely room overlooking the small Japanese garden. I had read the review about being in a modern building but this wasn’t the case for us. I think, from what I read when I was there, the rooms with private bathroom are all in the new bit. Shared bathroom rooms are in the old bit. Onsen was lovely. Very clean and overall much more affordable and worth it than some of the temples we stayed at

Nice guesthouse at the outskirts of historic Koyasan temples, that can be easily reached on foot. We slept in a sort of suite with two ambients and altogether five beds (with room for a sixth) and private bathroom. Cosy place, clean and quiet, several room services provided, although the hot water dispenser was not working properly (but there is a microwave available in a common room). Very gentle and helpful owner.

It would be impossible, as a tourist, to have a true monastery experience in an overnight stay, but the beautiful monastery and lovely monks gave us an inkling of what being a monk means. Sleeping and eating on the floor is less comfortable but essential for that experience. Beautiful monastery within walking distance of temples and Okunoin cemetery. Well worth staying overnight to appreciate Koyasan more fully.

Tourists beware: this is not an hotel. This is a temple, and as a temple it must be respected in all its aspects. The structure is not “rich” but is comfortable and in a very beautiful setting. The garden is pure magic and the monks are friendly and willing to share their knowledge. The position is perfect for visiting Koyasan and its treasures. Please, respect this place.

It was an incredible experience staying at a Buddhist Temple in Japan on the top of a mountain. You could feel it was a really spiritual place. You are staying among beautiful gardens and with real monks and monks in training.
