In an authentic setting, the temple is located in a small village in the middle of the Minobu woods. The meal was perfect. The room and the bath too, thank you for your hospitality.

Incredible place I will remember this experience my entire life The host is a very kind monk. Google translate is used for communication and it worked very well Can recommend it for couples and also for solo travelers. A one of a kind experience. I was the only western person, surrounded by Japanese people. It felt very authentic 1 day is perfect for it. I did 2 days, which was nice as I could go hiking next to the temple experience Thanks for everything

Hospitality and friendly staff, beautiful view on Mount Fuji.

Actually booked this place by accident. I thought i had booked Nishiyama Onsen Keiunkan. When i showed up to the hotel I thought i had booked, it was more elegant, and honestly more uppity than i was expecting. I sensed they were put off by my excited kids, and knew we'd be walking on eggshells the whole time. So i wasnt super upset when we learned I had accidentally booked another place 18 km away! I had been corresponding with the hotel operator by email, who seemed pleasant enough, but I hadn't the first clue what kind of place i had actually booked. So we were beyond excited when we arrived to find, what to my foreign eyes seemed like an absolutely authentic traditional japanese home. It looked like a movie set. The owner showed us around the property, then he went home. The kids and I high-fived! We got the traditional setting we had wanted, but we could relax alone on a mountainside. The setting is a tad rustic. I loved that about the place. Heating is by woodburning stove that you feed yourself (electric space heaters there as well). There is a full kitchen there, and what we didnt know ahead of time, is that there is primitive outdoor grilling/cooking facilities. That made a few confusing exchanges with the property operator suddenly make sense. Although it sounded in other reviews that possibly the property owner provided meat to be grilled, we had been asked to bring our own food. We didnt understand that that meant grillable items. But anyway, we loved the place. It would be perfect for a large group of 7, possibly more, to stay for more than one day and get big preplanned meals going on the woodfired grill.

There is a chinesse restaurant by the homestay. The food is very good. We had our dinner there every night.They have a shuttle bus which we can rent to pick up from train station and bring us where we want to go. The owners are very kind and helpfull. The location is very close to Taisekiji Temple about 10 minutes walk.
