Great experience. Location is great. Quiet and warm atmosphere. Dinner was well prepared. You have to sit down on tatami for dinner, but low chairs available. After meals, we were invited to the meditation. Morning service at 6:30 was a great way to start the day. Very nice atmosphere and it is run well. I do highly recommend.

Great experience! The staff is very helpful and international so no issues with language. The room had everything you need, including a comfy matrass to sleep on. Diner was vegan and very tasty. Afterwards we were invited to a meditation session and in the morning you can attend the morning ceremony. Breakfast is served and at 10 you can check out but leave your stuff to explore. A must stay if you are in Koyasan!

From the time that we were welcomed by Teo to to the grace of having my oversized goshuincho signed before departure, the serene and uplifting atmosphere of the monastery was a balm. The meals were delicious, the tour was informative and reverent, and the temple complex across the road was a joy. Our rooms was elegant and simple. 10/10.

Our stay in the temple was a really special way to end our trip in Japan. We really appreciated the serenity of the location and the grounds. The interaction with the monks was lovely. This type of stay is not for everyone please have you expectations set to get the most out of this experience. Check in closes at 5pm. This is because dinner (include in half board) is served at 5.30pm. The meal consists of a traditional Japanese Buddhist meal of about 10 dishes including tofo, rice, soup, pickles and veg. There are no animal products in this meal. Servives on low tables sitting on the tatami Matt floor. I am sure arrangement could be made if you are unable to sit on the floor. If you are used to a large meal this won’t fill you, but you can get snacks in the local family mark. The traditional hot bath is wonderful. Open from 4.30pm to 10pm. Men and women separate you shower before entering the bath. Towel and toiletries are provided. Much needed if you have hiked up the mountain. The room is a basic tatami flooring with futons. Simple but comfortable- maybe a little hard for some. There are only shared bathrooms, but they are very clean and comfortable. The temple is closed at 9pm. So there is time after dinner and mediation to take in some of the night lights in town. We were invited to join a meditation and morning chanting (6.30am) and the monks explained some Buddhist philosophy. Breakfast is modest and served at 7.20am

PROS: los monjes y el personal son muy atentos, la ceremonias de meditación y cánticos son preciosas, la comida muy rica. CONTRAS: el diciembre hace muchísimo frío y el lugar no cuenta con calefacción, supuestamente teníamos calentador en la habitación pero me parece que no funcionaba, aún prendido pasamos una noche helada. Por otro lado no te puedes bañar en la mañana.
