Just beautiful. The temple is gorgeous and serene. We had the family room with a private bathroom which was clean and a good size for our family. The dinner was perfection and one of the best meals we had in Japan. We wish we had booked for longer.

A really nice shukubo experience - definitely recommend it. You get a sense of the daily life of the monks, and it is well located next to all the main sights in Koya. In the morning, you can participate in two rituals, and they are as depicted on the photos. Hope to be back some day!

Paola is incredibly kind and attentive. Every detail in her Japanese-style guesthouse has been carefully chosen. She has put so much thought into selecting each piece, and each has its own story. Throughout my stay, I felt a sense of peace and love. ........ Thank you so much, Paola. I’m so happy to have met you and to have stayed at Koyasan Space. I look forward to seeing you again!

I love everything about the temple: the accommodations, the people, the routine, the foods, the location, the serenity it brings. It was the best trip I had this year, also the best experience - especially that everything here so simple yet leave strong impression on me. I travel with my close friend and we both decide to come back next year. I really miss the place and want to come back once hit the city.

Breakfast was amazing!! We are vegetarian so we loved the combination of flavors and textures put into the meals. You can see real love in it. Also everyone was so kind. We where almost the only ones there so we can enjoy the showers and bath with privacy. We definitely will recommend it to anyone staying in Koyasan and for sure we will come back if we have the chance.

Exceptional experience - we've thoroughly prepared for the trip and knew what to expect from temple lodging, being ready to manage our expectations, however it wasn't necessary as the accommodation provided excellent service! Starting from an amazing michelin-level dinner, relaxing experience in a well-maintained and completely empty (at 20:00) onsen, cozy and warm room equipped with toiletries, and finishing with a morning prayer where an english-speaking (!) monk (sorry, completely forgot the name, but i believe it was Patrick?) provided translation for a conversation with the head monk. Cherry on top - unlike all other temples, in Sojiin they didn't remove our futons during breakfast, so we had plenty of time to nap before check-out. It just feels like they have taken into account all the feedback provided by the guests and responded to their needs!

    wonderful atmosphere in this spiritual village. Our room was exceptionally large, comfortable and both modern and traditional. It included a small zen garden and a beautiful hot bath. The top level Buddhist food was both plentiful and delicious. Wifi was good. Rooms were very clean. Keep in mind this is a traditional Japanese hotel and you have to remove shoes everywhere you go. The meditation session was short, but informative. The night tour was also interesting. The morning prayers were also moving.

    This was a beautiful experience. The temple is gorgeous. The rooms were very clean. Everything I needed was there. Joining in the meditation and listening to the morning chanting was restful. It was in a great spot, close to the road but calm and peaceful inside. It was a short walk to Koyasan village and many of the attractions.

    This place was hard to get to from Osaka but so worth it! The village is spectacular and this property offers dinner and breakfast so you can enjoy the surroundings and not worry about food. It is more traditional than other places you'd stay at, you get to experience sleeping on the floor and the food they serve is vegan.

    Excellent authentic and comfy stay in Eko-in Temple at Koyasan village! Food was an amazing experience on our first days in Japan! We also attended to morning ceremonies which were interesting (we also got some pre-information about the Buddhist ways with a Okunoin night tour).

    Authentic temple stay experience. Awesome temple - like a large Japanese villa. Simple rooms which were well worn but comfy beds. You're here for the experience though - food, onsen and morning prayer ceremony all fantastic opportunities to try something new for Westerners. We were a family with teens and all loved it!
