What Guests Said About Koyasan:

Koya-san is one of the greatest sacred places in the world.
Koya-san is one of the greatest sacred places in the world. The special deep atmosphere of tranquility, cleanliness and uniqueness is there in the air. It is pretty hard to get there but it definitely worth it. Try to take a shuttle bus to get there - it is a comfortable trip that will save you some energy to explore the city upon arrival. One night might not be enough because the free time you can spend wandering around the city is basically till 4pm (and if you arrive at noon - that is a very limited time frame). After 4pm there are a lot of things you can do at the temple-hotel you are staying - like meditation, bath, dinner and night tour through the cemetery. The next morning is also busy with the ceremonies, breakfast and check-out, so you might want to get a couple of days at the same place for a peace of mind. That is exactly what this place can give you if you're willing to accept it.

The experiences of walking through the temples and cemetery...
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.
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.

Sojiin
Koyasan
From $244 per nightAmazing food. Amazing experience. We were upgraded because they weren’t busy which was an extra bonus. I was worried this could be a tourist trap and a bit sceptical as felt it was a bit expensive but the room was beautiful and the upgraded room had a private hot tub and bathroom which was luxurious. We discovered the heated floor mats in the morning which would be amazing on a cool day. The dinner and breakfast were beautiful and service was friendly. Overall we had a wonderful time visiting Koyasan and staying in Sojiin.

Kumagaiji
Koyasan
From $87 per nightVery glad to have stayed here. The temple stays in Koyasan seem to be generally pricey, some more than others. The staff at this property spoke enough English, and they provided a guided experience through the meals and ceremonies. The meals were excellent. The location is great, since it is very close to the entrance to Okunoin (the cemetery). It's still a temple stay, but the facilities were on the modern side, which made it feel very accessible as a foreigner.

From $47 per nightWe enjoyed very much our stay in this guesthouse managed by a lovely couple! We were first warmly welcomed (brochure about Koyasan, welcome tea drink) besides, we had the chance to eat at their restaurant, japanese cuisine cooked by the couple (restaurant just next to the house). It was worth it, good price for good food! we highly recommend staying there for a short trip in Koyasan.

From $55 per nightThe rooms are very spacious and the beds were the most comfortable we’ve slept on since being in Japan. Host was incredibly friendly and accommodating. There is a breakfast provided for a small additional cost that was well worth it. Location was central and was very easy to find.
