Wonderful experience in temple with monks. Dinner and breakfast were so good ! It's so peaceful there (except for our neighbors who talked a lot at night). Kotatsu was so good to have, so warm. The ceremony was so great. Thank you again for your welcoming.

Beautifully converted machiya in the centre of the historic district of Gojo. Absolutely incredible view over the river and mountains. The host gave perfect recommendations (go where he tells you, the Okonomiyaki and the cocktail bar were excellent) and even reserved places for us. A really exceptional and kind host who had thought of lots of ways to ensure the stay was perfect. Can’t say enough wonderful things, one of the best places we’ve stayed in Japan and definitely the best host. Only wish we’d stayed longer!

The attached restaurant had good food with very friendly staff (and a lot of meal variety). Good location, central to most places in Koyasan. The staff gave good advice on what to see at night as well.

Tommy and his wife gave us a really nice welcome. The rooms lacked nothing and the breakfast was excellent. Very good option to stay in Koyasan. In addition, Tommy gives valuable tips on what and when to see. There is also a visitor center right next door where you can rent electric bikes, perfect for exploring Koyasan.

Great experience staying at a Shukubo. Good vegetarian dinner and breakfast included. There’s also family mart nearby if you feel a late night peckish.

We stayed there during the winter and the electricity went out. Even though it was Sunday evening we immediately got alternative Heater, light and candles. While we had a great dinner, electricity came back and they prepared a hot bath for us (which was awesome). The food is great, the morning prayer an experience and the service awesome. This place is a must go, even if it is just for one night.

the guesthouse is located in a beautiful and peaceful town in the woods far from the city bustle. the facilities are tastefully decorated with a retro style, the bed is comfortable and the bathroom is clean with a modern toilet. the best part about my stay was definitely the kindness and friendliness of the hosts. they provide a free shuttle service from the nearest train station and on the way to the guesthouse they were kind enough to show me around the area and explain how life works in an authentic japanese village. during the following days they went above and beyond and offered to give me a tour of an ancient town as well as nearby shrines, temples, ryokan and sakura in bloom. I loved both the tour as there were no tourists around and I could see the most authentic side of japan, and I appreciated the enriching conversations we had. on top of all that, akemi’s cooking is simply delicious. I really felt at home and I would definitely recommend to spend at least a couple of nights in the area. I hope I’ll come back soon!

We loved the attention to detail, especially the vintage record player with Japanese vinyls and how well stocked the kitchen was (oil, spices, rice, coffee etc. - the best we had in Japan!). Staff was very accommodating. Very spacious, perfect for our group. We had to change the group size due to a mistake of our own and it was very easy to resolve, thank you for that. We had a great time!
