Koyasan
A 1000 year-old Buddhist temple, Shukubo Koya-san Eko-in offers Japanese-style accommodations, a beautiful garden and free WiFi. Excellent service from bilingual staff of monks. Great location a few minutes from Okunoin Cemetery. Internal soundproofing, though not perfect, is much better than other temple lodgings. Morning prayers and fire ceremony very interesting.

Located at the heart of Mount Koya, Sojiin offers Japanese-style accommodations in a Buddhist temple. Vegan meals are served for dinner and breakfast. Sakai is 26 mi from Soji. What a gem! Everything about this stay was special—from the unpretentious and beautiful meals to the lovely room overlooking the garden. The bathes were also wonderful.
Koyasan
Located in Koyasan, within a 9-minute walk of Kongobu-ji Temple and one mile of Nyonindo, Koyasan Shukubo Fudoin provides accommodations with a garden as well as free private parking for guests who... What can I say? The monks looked after us so well, they were so friendly and kind. The traditional vegan Shojin Ryori dinner and similar breakfast was delicious, such a treat for any vegan travelling in Japan. The onsen was so relaxing after a day on our feet. The bedroom was very cosy, well heated with a very comfortable futon for a night sleeping on tatami flooring. The morning service was such an interesting experience to witness Buddhist monks in their prayer. Overall, we had a wonderful stay in this temple - it was well situated in close proximity to the Main Street whilst maintaining serenity up amongst the trees. We wish we could’ve stayed for longer!

Koyasan
Located at the heart of Mount Koya, Koyasan Onsen Fukuchiin Shukubo offers Japanese-style accommodations in a historical Buddhist temple. Everything was fantastic. The temple was so serene with stunning garden views from our room. There was a beautiful room for coffee in the mornings that overlooked one of the other gardens that was available in the mornings. We were able to start one of our mornings having coffee while watching the snow fall into the garden. IT was just amazing. We also attended the calligraphy class during the evening and the monk who helps show us how to write the prayer was very helpful and welcoming. The onsen in the temple was clean and so relaxing. Overall, our stay at Fukuchiin was brilliant. Couldn't have loved my time there more.
Koyasan
Located in the famous Koyasan city, Kongo Sanmaiin is a property with 800 years of history. It features having a national treasure as well as over 10 important cultural properties on site. Nice staff and very peaceful place. I would come back here again for sure.
The experiences of walking through the temples and cemetery were some of the best of Japan. We were lucky to be here when the world was in shut down so we didn't have to compete with crowds but it was a great place for an escape from news and the rest of the world to get in touch with nature and explore Japanese Buddhism. Really cool.
Koyasan is very atmospheric even in bad weather. I enjoyed Okunoin and the Garan temple complex a lot exploring them on a very foggy day. I hiked the old pilgrimage trail up to Koyasan, which is about 20km. During my hike the weather was great and I recommend that trail very much. Around Koyasan is also the old women's pigrimage trail which is also very nice. If you're not planning on hiking one night in Koyasan will be enough. I enjoyed my stay at a temple, which was a very unique experience. I also loved the vegan cuisine.
A must visit when you are in Japan. Particularly the world heritage cemetery and mausoleum and temple in the giant cedar forest. Awesome!! In winter food at night is a little limited if not eating at the temple you are staying in
Very very beautiful and tranquil, with many temples and shrines and fabulous food. Wonderful for quiet relaxation. The bus system is super easy to use and you can get a bus pass. We would have enjoyed a longer stay, but it is *very* cold in January. I do NOT recommend winter!
Koyasan was absolutely stunning with so many sights and nature. The highlight for us was the Okuinin Cemetary, which we visited with our monk hosts in the evening and then by ourselves in the morning. The place felt so spiritual and we were very inspired by our visit. Many of the stores were closed due to the holiday but they looked very cute and full of local artisan crafts and spiritual relics. We definitely felt we could have stayed longer and will stop again on a future trip.
For my opinion, this Mountain is very peaceful place, people, places here are very clean and warm welcome to all guests visited. Every temples here are the history of Buddhist of Japan, Okuno-in is not a cemetery or a graveyard, but there are the peaceful power of a holy place. To experience the Shin-Ngon Buddhism, visitors should try to join the ceremony and short course of meditation. Visitors' questions are answered by experience. Vegetarian cuisine here is great, the Some menus are traditional vegetarian cooking only here in Koya San. I recommended Koya San a peaceful place in WAKAYAMA. Wish you enjoy.
