Koyasan Space, hotel in Koyasan

Set in Koyasan, 37 km from Kishi Station, Koyasan Space offers recently renovated accommodation with free WiFi and a garden.

The location was optimal as it is close to three out of 4 of the UNESCO World Heritage sites. The home made breakfast was a delight (bonus if the weather allows you to have it in the lovely garden). The host is very nice and brings a lot of warmth to the experience (vs hotels).

Koyasan Shukubo Sainanin, hotel in Koyasan

Located in Koyasan, Koyasan Shukubo Sainanin is a historic temple approximately 1100 years old and located 300 metres from Daimon Gate. All rooms features tatami (woven-straw) flooring.

We loved the fact that we stayed in a temple with no much ammenities! Our room was simple but very nice, the temple was very big and the monks there were so friendly! We enjoyed the morning pray, the dinner and breakfast and the bath! Koyasan is a really calming place, so different from the rest of the places we 've been in Japan! We want to thank the student monk that helped us the last day!

Koyasan Guesthouse Kokuu, hotel in Koyasan

Koyasan Guesthouse Kokuu is situated in Koyasan, famous as the world headquarters of the Koyasan Shingon sect of Japanese Buddhism. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar.

Ryochi, who runs the guesthouse, is the best! He gave me detailed information about Koyasan and its surroundings. Kokuu has no curfew, it’s chilled-out, and so close to Okunoin :)

    Great hosts, good location, very clean and comfortable. Lucky to have their restaurant on site for dinner - one of nicest meals we had in Japan - that is, home cooked by Guest House owner, an outstanding chef.

    Comfortable room and great hosts. Incredibly helpful to us even after we checked out and returned to collect our left bags soaking wet after getting caught in the rain. Our host provided towels and heating for us to dry out and warm up. The restaurant was great as well. Highly recommend.
