We loved the experience a lot (building, food, quiet, village, bath, food, food, decoration, check in process, dinner process) but we were expecting a room in the old building with view of the garden. It should be more clearly described during reservation

Very nice temple with kind employees who speak both English and Japanese. The onsens were really nice especially after a day of travel. It’s really close to Kongobuji, only like a 3 minute walk away. They had free parking for our car but if you want to tak

Such a cool experience. There are 2 hot spring/onsen at this temple to enjoy. The carbonated onsen was a really neat experience. Getting up early to observe the monk ceremony was well worth it.

A wonderful shukubo experience. The staff had remarkable English capabilities and were very helpful. The room was lovely and the food was outstanding. I am not a vegetarian/vegan but I found the shojin ryori (Buddhist cuisine) to be flavorful and delicious

It was a lovely stay in a traditional looking Shukubo. A bit touristy for my preference. I would have preferred something maybe a little more homely and down to earth. I felt this was really ryokan-like. The staff were welcoming and were eager to help. I l

Wonderful stay at Koyasan. The temple hotel gave us the perfect frame to fully enjoy the spirituality of the town. Furthermore, the food is just amazing.

Everything was perfect except breakfast which was too "vegetarian" for Europeans like us ;-)

The place is very nice. When we arrived it was snowing (so it was very beautiful). Because it was cold, it was also cold in the temple, but that is very logical. The dinner and breakfast were VERY good! And the people were very kind. The ceremony in the mo
