Just incredible experience!! The monks were so warming and welcoming, they really made us feel at home. The whole experience was enlightening and to learn more about their faith and take part in the morning prayers was truly a unique experience!

The attached restaurant had good food with very friendly staff (and a lot of meal variety). Good location, central to most places in Koyasan. The staff gave good advice on what to see at night as well.

Very cool experience, we had the best room so all cool (considering you are in a monastery). The morning prayer is super interesting as well as the position is very good. Staff is very nice and both dinner and breakfast were great.

Our stay at the temple was fantastic! Everyone was so nice, we had a comfortable stay and very much enjoyed the temple itself and the rest of Koyasan. The morning ceremony was also great, we can really recommend everything :)

The location is close to everything. Highly recommend the evening tour of the cemetery!! One of the monks took us around, told us all about the cemetery and it’s history and some basics of Japanese Buddhist beliefs and legends. It was a highlight of my entire Japan trip. It was great to experience the morning prayer ceremony also. We were so grateful to be welcomed and get to see a small part of life for the people living at yochi in. The food was simple but lovely and the futon was surprisingly comfortable. There is a convenience store very close by which was great 😊

Paola is incredibly kind and attentive. Every detail in her Japanese-style guesthouse has been carefully chosen. She has put so much thought into selecting each piece, and each has its own story. Throughout my stay, I felt a sense of peace and love. ........ Thank you so much, Paola. I’m so happy to have met you and to have stayed at Koyasan Space. I look forward to seeing you again!

Staf was very very kind, smiling and welcoming. It was all very clean. We took of our shoes and they had shoes for the inside and also separate shoes for the toilet, so it was all very clean. Good location, around the middle of the main street. Dinner and breakfest (vegetarian) were included and it was an amazing experience and also very good. Dinner was inside our room and breakfest was after the morning ceremony and was also not too bad but just a bit small. It was across the street from danjo garan and it was amazing in day and night. Sleeping on the mats was actually not too bad at all. The ceremony was very special.

What guests said about Koyasan:

This is a world heritage site not to be missed.

This is a world heritage site not to be missed. The kindness and quiet beauty and the FOOD were heavenly. A friend suggested we go and stay a night in a temple for the full experience, (although a day trip is fine,) and we are so glad that we did. The Buddhist Okunoin cemetery is the largest in Japan and is lit by lanterns at night for a beautiful otherworldly (but actually this world! ;) unforgettable evening walk. Beautiful temples and sacred sites to visit, and many shops and little cafes to enjoy. We stayed in the Sanboin temple and were so delighted by our experience.

Don't miss touring the cemetery.

Don't miss touring the cemetery. It is amazing with so many different types of monuments and statuary. We toured it without a guide during the day light hours and feel that we really didn't miss anything by not seeing it by moonlight. The town has an ancient feel to it and is worth spending at least one night. I just wish that there were more choices for hotels as the only choices seem to be a Guest House and a multitude of Monasteries.

Koyasan is a historic, spiritual, naturally beautiful location. The ability to be around active temples and attend fire ceremony was unforgettable. The information center and excellent bus system made it easy to navigate. However, if you like to walk, most sights are easily walked to, as it is quite flat. There were several nice coffee houses and the place that offers night tours of Okunoin also is a bar in the evening, serving excellent local craft beers. A surprise.

I came here for the history and the experience of staying in a monastery/pilgrim lodging, but I left with much more than that, as all the people I met here were wonderful, from fellow travelers to local cafe owners. One word of advice would be to take your time exploring Oku no In cemetery, as it's worth a good long contemplative walk.

Thoroughly enjoyed experiencing how the monks live and eat.

Thoroughly enjoyed experiencing how the monks live and eat. We arrived on a Friday afternoon, wondered into the info centre Saturday & they were very helpful. Walked through the cemetery & then had lunch in one of the cafes open. Not many open on a Saturday or Sunday. Sunday a.m we experience the Ceremony half by the Monks in the main temple. Wouldn’t visit again in the winter as it’s extremely cold.

Okunoin cemetery --meditative walk-- was lovely.

Okunoin cemetery --meditative walk-- was lovely. Would have enjoyed having more time to visit the town. We only stayed one night (which is good, because it was very expensive). However, the train logistics from Okayama meant that we ararived in Koyasan about 2pm and so had very little time to see it. We left after lunch the following day. Two fuller days and one night would have been ideal.

Loved how spacious the room was, there was even a couch and small TV. Tommy was great at explaining what was open and closed in the area. Very clean and modern, always looked forward to going back to the guesthouse after a day of exploring. Great shower and bidet. Would recommend to anyone staying at Koyasan as an alternative to temple lodging. It's a convenient location for walking to all the sights in Koyasan and for taking the bus.

This is not a normal hotel it's a Buddhist temple run by monks. But it is incredibly efficient. The rooms are traditional and simple, tatami mats and no chairs. The monks serve a vegetarian feast in the room - eat sitting on the floor in your yakuta (provided) and then lay out your futons. There's an onsen bath downstairs too. Next day wake at 6.30 and go to ceremonies in the temple. An experience.

Koyasan Sanadabo Rengejoin was an experience that when looking for the ancient Japan it touches it lightly. Beautiful surroundings, thoughtful in every moment. We were guided by kind people in every ritual and the meditating and chanting moments where universal. The food, room and facilities were clean and beautiful. Even the common bathing area separated by gender were good.
