The property is beautiful and well maintained. Staying in Koyasan was the highlight of our trip to Japan from Canada and it didn’t disappointment! The grounds are cared for, the staff is friendly and helpful, and the rooms are nice and comfortable. The location is great as everything is within walking distance but you aren’t on the main road. 10/10!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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 were lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the monks praying in the morning, and I absolutely loved our morning ceremony. If you’re looking for a truly unforgettable Japanese experience, this is an absolute MUST-stay! Thank you to everyone who made our visit so special. We had the BEST time and will treasure the memories forever! ❤️

Special Stay

Very special place to stay. Morning prayer session is not to be missed. They have good air conditioning in the room we stayed in which was necessary due to the heat. Everything closes early in town and dinner is at 5pm.

The experience was what we expected. Very Japanese, quiet with beautiful gardens. They changed our booking from a room for 6 to three rooms for 2 each and had a nice garden view. The dinner was surprisingly very good with all vegetable dishes but quite diverse texture and taste. We enjoyed our stay.

The temple is amazing and the rooms nice. It wasn’t clear though from the site that the meditation was an extra fee (1000 ¥). The kaiseki dinner was good but there were no expiation of the food or in which order to eat it. Overall a bit overpriced in my opinion.

Decent accommodations but poor food

The hotel is nice enough for the location, really enjoyed the Onsen. The location is close to center of town and attractions. We found the food to be much below expectations. We are used to vegetarian food so that wasn’t the issue, it was just very unappetizing. So don’t go here for the food but the accommodations are fine.

Staying with the monks

We had a wonderful room that included separate sleeping ( futons on floor) a sitting room and our own private toilet. We had ordered dinner which was delivered to our room. We did go to the 6:30 a.m. ceremony followed by breakfast. It was a delightful experience. The location was good and there was close parking. A great town to wander in!
