Sleeping in the temple is a beautiful experience. It combines the facilities of a nice accommodation with the opportunity to participate in the morning prayers and eating vegetarian food. The room vas very spacious and with two heaters which kept the room temperature comfortable. Outside our room was cold since it was snowing.

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.

This was a really lovely place to stay for our one night in Koyasan, and we wished we’d had more time here. The monks were so kind and welcoming, the vegan dinner and breakfast were both amazing (and served in the room!), and we loved everything we did through the temple: the meditation class, the cemetery tour (which cost extra but definitely worth it), the morning prayers and the fire ritual. Mount Koya is definitely tourist-y, but Eko-in does an amazing job of making it still feel serene.

We enjoyed the morning pray, the dinner and breakfast and the bath! Koyasan is a really calming place, so different from the rest of the places we 've been in Japan! We want to thank the student monk that helped us the last day!

During my stay in Japan, it was one of my favourite places to spend the night. We were given a warm welcome immediately and the rooms were very spacious and absolutely beautiful. If you want to experience real Japanese style rooms, this is the place to be. Morning prayer was done in one of the most beautiful Buddhist temple rooms I’ve seen during my trip. Definitely recommend!

Very very grateful to the young Swedish monk who took his time to explain his journey and answered all our questions, helping our immersion in the beautiful culture surrounding esoteric buddhism, this temple and Koyasan as a whole. Highly recommended!
