The host Paula is a wonderful woman who is friendly and helpful all the ways. The vibe of the hut is so peaceful and a perfect match of that of Koyashan. I have previously tried temple stay before. To me, it was even better to stay in Koyasan Space.

Wonderful experience in temple with monks. Dinner and breakfast were so good ! It's so peaceful there (except for our neighbors who talked a lot at night). Kotatsu was so good to have, so warm. The ceremony was so great. Thank you again for your welcoming.

Everything! Booking.com hosts could take a cue from the host (Shogo) on guest treatment and delivering exceptional experiences. With his warm hospitality, we felt right at home in the charming village of Gojo. Our room couldn't have been better, and Shogo's local recommendations added a special touch to our stay.

FANTASTIC PLACE! The owners are such a wonderful, helpful young couple who were communicative and kind, and you really do feel like you get so much space and value for money! They even offered to keep our luggage while we went stayed the night in Koyasan. Could not recommend more highly. (We particularly loved the projector!)

We loved everything. We stayed 4 nights and had an amazing time. Our room was big and comfy, dinners and breakfast were outstanding. Our hosts were the most incredible couple we met. Super friendly and helpfull. Place is located in a small mountain village, away from big city, close to Koyasan. Perfect spot to get away from loud cities. Also recommend Himalaya caffe.

    Great hosts, good location, very clean and comfortable. Lucky to have their restaurant on site for dinner - one of nicest meals we had in Japan - that is, home cooked by Guest House owner, an outstanding chef.

    Comfortable room and great hosts. Incredibly helpful to us even after we checked out and returned to collect our left bags soaking wet after getting caught in the rain. Our host provided towels and heating for us to dry out and warm up. The restaurant was great as well. Highly recommend.
