Great guesthouse, very nice owner, the bedroom was simply but nicely decorated. The room was huge and beds very comfortable. We could use the washing machine for free which is not often the case in other guesthouses in Japan

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 are so happy we chose this temple for our stay in Koyasan. It was quiet and peaceful and the staff was very kind. The morning ceremonies were definitely an important part of the experience. The place felt much less crowded compared to the other temple stays that we passed by in town, which we really appreciated. It has a nice garden and a relaxing indoor onsen, available for guests in the evenings.

Everyone was very friendly here and welcoming. The temple was easy to find and short was short walk from Okunoin cemetery. Food prepared with care and lovely to try traditional meals. Very quiet and peaceful stay. It was an honour to participate in the ceremonies, the fire ceremony felt very special. The rooms were cold initially but the heater worked well and we were comfortable throughout our stay. Thank you very much for an exceptional experience.

Tommy gave us a lot of useful info so that we managed to attened the fire cerimony and the chanting cerimony all for free. If i ever go back to Koyasan, I'll book this accomodation again.

    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.
