Ryokans in Koyasan

Fantastic experience and shukubo! You're allowed to join the morning and evening ceremonies and provided with delicious breakfast and dinner. Everyone here is also very kind.

An unique experience in a beautiful setting. We loved the garden. Once in a life-time to experience the morning ceremony and to have the meals in the dining room. Thank you for being so welcoming!

This hotel was impressive with a grand entrance, ornate furniture in the foyer and a really old wisteria growing in the front yard that had a trunk as big as a sizeable tree. We were welcomed with tea and given an explanation of the hotel and when our meals would be served. Our room was spacious with an outlook over a lovely landscaped terrace to the main garden beyond. The kaiseki dinner and breakfast here were vegan and given the restrictions in ingredients they can work with, both meals were impressive and, as usual with Japanese food, artistically presented by efficient staff. The hotel has a temple attached and we would recommend attending the early morning prayer ceremony. The chanting by the head priest and 2 other monks was quite moving. Koya-san is a beautiful town and well worth visiting.

We loved our temple stay. We had a lovely room - definitely worth it!! Our delicious dinner was delivered to the room and the morning prayers were a wonderful experience. The grounds were lovely and the location was great.

The whole stay is a different experience and everybody is super helpful and offers excellent guidance on how to enjoy the best the Shukubo stay. We needed a taxi the next morning, and they very quickly arranged one for us. Super kind and helpful!

Food was great, they put the expectations low before you arrive and I understand why, but I LOVE it! Public bath/Onsen was a nice surprise and great! The place is a dream, specially with fall leaves. Easily the biggest bedrooms I've seen in Japan.

Clean, quiet, beautiful, meaningful. Words are not enough to describe.

The serene atmosphere of the temple and clean and comfortable accommodation. The staff was attentive and thoughtful. The food was a good experience.

One lifetime experience, must visit and stay over the night.

Great experience, beautiful surroundings and the morning ceremony was unique. The onsen was also amazing. The futons and pillows were nice as well.

Food was great, staff was attentive and very friendly.

Great room, clean bathrooms, friendly owner, perfect location. Highly recommend.

We loved everything about Yochi-in. We had wonderful meal and the privilege of participating in the afternoon meditation and early morning ceremony. We took a guided tour with one of the temples monk to Okunoin cemetery. Beautiful experience.

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!

The traditional dinner and breakfast were both exceptional - the food and beautiful setting were outstanding. Our junior suite was beautiful and spacious; the ensuite shower, bathtub, and toilet were very convenient. I can't say enough about the hospitality, service, and smiles from all the staff at the inn.

Everything was magical, the room was very beautiful and cozy. The place is absolutely outstanding, the breakfast was amazing and all the spiritual ambience was incredible. The fact that we could join the prayer ceremony was very special.

I was just going to leave my backpack but they allowed me to check in even if it was only past 12noon. The dinner and breakfast is great! My room is excellent, had a very nice garden view, and was surprised it has its own toilet.

Amazing experience thank you!!

Amazing stay, everything was amazing, food delicious, room great, staff amazing!
