We stayed here as a couple to celebrate a birthday. From the meals and baths to the Room amenities and Shuttle Service, everything was filled with hospitality, and they were flexible in accommodating our requests, making our stay truly enjoyable and happy. Some Accommodations offer inclusive bar drinks or well-equipped Rooms, but this place is on another level—we were able to enjoy an extraordinary sense of luxury. We would definitely love to visit again. Thank you very much!

My first stay. The large public bath was spacious, and I enjoyed the Onsen at a leisurely pace. The guest Room had high ceilings and an open-air bath; there was a Japanese-style room next to the bed, and each room had a TV, so I could truly refresh. The meals were kaiseki cuisine—sashimi, tempura, grilled fish, a small hot pot, chilled chawanmushi, and more—everything was very delicious, and I also had two large draft beers.

This is my regular Accommodation when I return home. I’m always satisfied with the warm hospitality from the staff. The Room is thoroughly cleaned, and the breakfast staff always greet guests with a bright, energetic voice. When they have time, they even take care of weeding and cleaning around the property—I truly appreciate their dedication. This Hotel offers heartfelt hospitality and clearly understands how to welcome guests while maintaining a comfortable sense of distance.

We stayed here to visit Mount Koya. The meals were delicious, and desserts and drinks were all-you-can-eat and all-you-can-drink. The bath water was soft, and everything was excellent.

The hospitality felt more like a luxury Ryokan than a temple lodging. Our Room was upgraded to a special suite, and we were able to relax in the spacious “Hojo” Room overlooking an expansive garden. The shojin-ryori cuisine was beautifully presented and delicious throughout. After dinner, we took a short walk (about 3 minutes) to Danjo Garan. With bonfires lit and the area illuminated, we caught a glimpse of Kobo Daishi’s mandala world through sights such as Konpon Daito, Saito Pagoda, and Kondo Hall. The next morning, we joined the morning service from 6:00 a.m., which felt truly solemn and moving. The Dharma talk by Archbishop Miyata explained Buddhism from a global perspective with humor, making it easy to understand. I strongly feel that Koyasan is best experienced with an overnight stay.

Enjoy unlimited views of Nankai Electric Railway trains from a guest room built inside the station building. That said, trains are less frequent than in the city, so it’s quiet. There’s nothing around the station, and it’s also separated from the other guest room, ensuring peace and silence. Perfect for getting away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Please bring your own food and drinks.

I stayed here for one night with my two children and my mother before visiting my mother’s family home. We planned to find a nice place to eat on the way, so we didn’t need meals, and this Hotel was perfect. The inside was much more spacious than you would imagine from the outside, and our family was able to relax comfortably. The occasional sound of passing trains added a nice atmosphere, and otherwise it was truly quiet with no other noise at all. In Hotels or Ryokan, voices and sounds from next door often carry a lot, but this place was very comfortable in that respect. When we had an issue during our stay, they replied quickly by email; even without meeting in person, their service felt pleasant and trustworthy. There are plenty of useful shops nearby as well, and I would like to stay again if I have the chance. Thank you very much.

I stayed on a weekday in January. Perhaps because there were few guests, it was wonderfully quiet amid the falling snow, and I was able to fully enjoy this Accommodation. Although it is not a Hotel so I did not have high expectations for the Room, I was kindly upgraded and stayed in a very nice Room. Everyone was pleasant and welcoming, and the meals suited us perfectly as a middle-aged couple. The main hall has an amazing atmosphere and is a must-see. Jokoin’s location is also excellent, making our visit to Mount Koya truly satisfying. Thank you very much.

The Room with a garden was fully equipped with a toilet and more than exceeded my expectations. The delicious Buddhist vegetarian cuisine and all the experiences were completely satisfying. I was surprised that there were more international guests than I expected.

This was my first time staying at a temple Accommodation, and it was comfortable with no inconveniences. The vegan meals were also very delicious (especially the sesame tofu). The Room was warm even in winter, and the bath warmed me up well; the changing area was warm too (I would appreciate signage for international guests asking them not to bring hair or towels into the bath). The morning service was easy to join, not too long, and never boring. Being shown the Buddha’s relics left a strong impression on me and made me feel the history. It would be even better if there were an opportunity to try zazen meditation.

At the entrance, we were welcomed by motifs of Tentoki and Ryutoki. The stone garden “Yusentei,” Aizen Garden, and Tosentei were wonderful after the rain. The Onsen was natural, but unfortunately the open-air bath was too dark to see well. The carbonate spring bath was out of order and could not be used. The shojin-ryori (Buddhist vegetarian cuisine) was very delicious. The morning service was easy to join, which was nice. What was disappointing was that some guests speaking Chinese did not bring towels into the bath at all; they then left without drying off, leaving the floor soaked. They also brought canned beer and similar drinks into the shojin-ryori meal area to drink. In addition, they talked loudly on their phones with friends while using the Wi-Fi for a long time and seemed to take up most of the bandwidth, so it could not be used properly. The staff’s response was good; even if they were not Japanese, there were no problems as long as you spoke with them. Finally, I was surprised that the Room key is secured from inside with a simple latch/bolt. In terms of security, it felt like self-management is expected.

It was my first time staying at this accommodation, and the moment I entered the room, I was amazed by its luxury, cleanliness, and comfort. It felt like staying at a luxurious ryokan, and my friend and I couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow!" True to its name, the VIP room was exceptional. The staff at the reception were very polite, and we enjoyed a relaxing dinner in the room. The bath was also spacious and comfortable. The morning tour of Danjo Garan was accompanied by clear and detailed explanations, allowing us to learn more about Mount Koya and making it an enjoyable and meaningful experience. I was able to spend a relaxing time with my high school friend after a long time and fully enjoy Mount Koya, making it a truly happy time.

Although I was traveling alone during the cold season in February, the snow-covered garden view from my Room was wonderful and full of charm. Since it was cold, I really appreciated having a kotatsu, air conditioner, and even a gas heater, which made my stay very comfortable. Perhaps by chance, there were no overseas tourists during my visit, so I was able to enjoy the peace and quiet. I also enjoyed delicious meals served in my Room. The Accommodation is primarily run by Buddhist monks, and above all, I could truly feel their kindness and attentive care. They spoke to me about staying safe on the road as well, which made me feel genuinely calm and at ease. The morning service was indeed cold, but the atmosphere of the main hall lit only by votive lamps is something I will never forget. I was told, “Spring has its own special charms as well,” and I would love to return around that time with my family. Thank you very much.

Just a short walk from the station, with a convenience store right in front, in an easy-to-find location. The Room was compact but very clean and comfortable. Since payment is made in advance, checkout was easy. In terms of value for money, I’d rate it 4. Thank you for your hospitality.
