Truly a wonderful surprise. We decided to stay here as it was reasonably near to Koyasan (about 40-50 mins drive from Okunoin) while being much more affordable than lodgings in the main Koyasan area. You can also drive to Osaka and Kansai airport from the hotel (1 hr plus). We opted for both dinner and breakfast as the hotel's location was remote. We were blown away by the food, which was extremely delicious. For dinner, we were served a sumptuous and exquisite kaiseki meal which included both traditional dishes (e.g. matsutake mushroom soup; matsutake mushroom rice; plum soba noodles; nabe hot pot) and innovative dishes (e.g. western-style cream of mushroom soup with cheese, served in a Japanese persimmon; tempura with 3 types of salt - matcha, plum, and another flavour I didn't catch). The ingredients were all of high quality and the fish dishes in particular were very fresh. We also really enjoyed the dessert (persimmon mochi and dango). The plating of the dishes was beautiful. The breakfast was also excellent. We especially enjoyed the boiled tofu with sauce, and the half-boiled egg which was cooked to perfection. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful, particularly the gentleman who helped us to check in and guided us on our room and the hotel's facilities, and the serving ladies at the dining hall who patiently explained how to cook and consume the various dishes. We managed to communicate with the assistance of Google Translate and a combination of basic English & Japanese. The room was clean and fairly large for the price. The beds were comfortable and the blankets were thick and fluffy. The electronics charging station beside the beds with multiple USB ports was particularly convenient. The hotel also has an onsen which we enjoyed. Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay at this hotel which offered a perfect ending to our holiday in Japan.

The onsen!!! It had perfect vintage vibes. And the stuff was friendly un hellful! And the breakfast was good as well.

The house was lovely and the owner very nice and kind!

Breakfast and dinne were amazing

This was the most outstanding place we stayed at in Japan. The owner met us at the train station at the beginning of our 2 night stay and took care of us the entire time. He drove us to restaurants, supermarkets. The next day he picked us up and took us on a tour of all the shrines on the nearby mountain. He was informative, and catered to all our wishes with a great sense of humor and kind spirit. The whole experience was what we wanted from Japan,

Silence and temple atmosphere. And food was just great :) Unforgetable experience.

We had a great time at the temple and participated to several ceremonies. The common spaces were very clean and the food was delicious :)

Perfect stay. The monks are super friendly even if they don’t speak english. The food is good and very traditional and the rooms are great. Spacious tatami style, loved it so much I regret not staying longer. They even give you a flashlight if you want to explore at night. The placement is perfectly fine.

The owners were the kindest people on this planet, we arrive late in the evening after check in hours and they greeted us with smile and kindness, even prepare a dinner for us! Forget about temple lodging, this is THE best place in koyasan! Suzume-san rules :)
