“The dinner was amazing and we felt welcome and well cared for.”

“Dit is een werkelijk prachtige oude Ryokhan, een absolute aanrader als je met de auto reist. Heel erg mooi gebouw en erg goed eten. De eigenaar was erg aardig. Goed te combineren met een wandeling in Odaigahara.”

“素晴らしい”

“チェックイン時間を間違えてしまったのに、優しく丁寧に迎えてくださり、到着早々ほっとしました。 お料理はどれも美味しく、ひとつひとつに心がこもっているのが伝わってきます。 清潔なお布団と気持ちのいいお部屋で、心からくつろげました。 静かな環境と温かな接客で、日常を離れた癒しの時間を過ごせました。また訪れたいお宿です。”

“Very nice stay, lovely staff”

“Ein tolles Shibuko, das wir ausnahmslos empfehlen. Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen und uns wurde alles in einem persönlichen Rundgang gezeigt. Unbedingt die Meditation am Abend und die Andacht am Morgen mitmachen. Eine schöne Erfahrung. Am Abend konnten wir im hauseigenen Onsen entspannen. ”

“Fantastiskt boende. Unikt, charmigt och värt vartenda öre.”

“The room was clean and large. The food was excellent and the monks were friendly and helpful. The grounds and facility was beautiful. We were blessed with a fresh snowfall to make it even more beautiful. Keep in mind if you go in the winter, even though your room is toasty warm, the halls are not. So any walking to dinner, a ceremony, THE BATHROOM, is all in freezing temperatures and I never got hot water from the tap to wash my hands with. ”

“Me encantó cuando la conocí hace 10 días que vine y por eso decidí regresar. ”

“A spectacular stay from start to finish. The location is beautiful, the staff incredibly kind and attentive, and the ambiance truly special. The rooms were comfortable and serene, and both dinner and breakfast were absolutely incredible. The baths were spotless and very relaxing. 100% recommend staying here.”

“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. ”

“綺麗な部屋で快適に過ごすことができました。”

“免費升等。”

“Great hotel. Parking was easy and the room was perfect. We slept very well as it was very quiet. ”

“Spititual and interesring trip where we learned a lot about the specific Kukai buddhist religion, went on the cementary night tour and visited a lot of the temples. We joined the morning and afternoon meditations and everything was great - only the western turists were being unpolite and disrespectful in these ceremonies. The munks who are in charge of the whole hotel are really nice and helpful. Food was delicious! ”

“We could wright that this is an authentic special experience like so many others, but to be honest it's not that special in comparison with other more authentic ryokan and minshuku throughout Japan. Touristic temple hotels are big business on Koyasan and the monks now it. You will notice that fact in some way or another during your stay. The prices are not reasonable for what you'll get in the end. But what can you do about it if you, like us, wish to stay in a Japanese monastery? Regarding...
