Perfect!

My family had a truly amazing stay here. One of the best experiences of our trip through Japan. The temple and surrounding area is beautiful. The staff spoke excellent English and the vegetarian food was great. Get up for the morning prayers if you can.

A superb overnight stay in this lovely temple lodging. The food was fantastic, as was the care shown to us by the staff. A unique experience which we’ll treasure.

Great property! Staff was welcoming and friendly. The food was fresh and delicious. I would definitely recommend this accommodation to anyone visiting the area and wants great hospitality in an authentic temple.

10/10 Exceptional

Nice spiritual vibes.
Johannes, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Way overpriced for what it was. While the garden and the services were good, it’s not a working temple for monks. It’s more like an inn for tourists in a temple structure. The morning Buddhist service gave me the feeling that it was just catered for tourists. By all means check out Koyasan during the day but you would be better off staying outside the mountain for a fraction of the cost. There’s nothing extra zen about staying at this place.
Patricia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Had a good one night stay here. I was worried it wouldn’t be enough time to see everything i wanted too, but it turned out to be perfect. You can drop off your luggage before and after you check in which is really nice. Highlights for me were the public bath, and morning ceremony.

10/10 Exceptional

案内してくれたスタッフは感じが良くて、お部屋も過ごしやすかった。晩御飯は、近くの花菱というところから仕出しをとっているとのことで、言う事なし。 朝の勤行の後で、住職さんが高野山の由来を説明して下さるなど、高野山のことをよく知らないで来た人たち(私!)も、居心地よく過ごせたのではないか。
Izumi, 1-night trip

An enriching experience, one that I will never forget. The room was amazing, the setting was peaceful and the staff were lovely. I would recommend this temple stay to anyone who wants to reset and be at peace.

8/10 Very good

We greatly appreciated the directions and communication from Jokiin to assist us getting there from Kyoto. The grounds were lovely but small. Room was adequate with more than we expected. We had use of the shared bathrooms but no one else was using them so basically had our own. Enjoyed the heated blanket table and the bedding provided was also very warm. The dinner and breakfast were very different for us but we tried everything. Closeby to local sights too and public transport was easy. Quite a few food options around if the vegan menu isn't what you're after though. Very lovely neighbourhood.
