宿坊も世界遺産に登録されているとのことで、施設はそれなりの古さでした。食事は完璧なまでの 精進料理でした。胡麻豆腐は絶品ですが、人によっては量に不満を覚えるかもしれません。飲み物の注文などはなく、真夏でも暑いお茶が供されました。もちろんアルコールの注文などはできません。実に質実剛健な宿坊で、本物の宿坊での宿泊を経験したい方にはとてもおすすめです。ホテルのようなサービスを期待していると大きな肩透かしを喰うでしょう。でも、高野山でに泊まるならこのような環境がある意味ベストかとも思いました。

C’est une expérience intéressante. Les repas sont corrects et la prière du matin avec les moines est un plus. Mais 15 mn est un peu court pour profiter de l’ambiance et de la philosophie du lieu.

Nice room and lovely pond with chorus of frogs

Bella struttura comoda vicino al centro. Si dorme in una struttura accanto al tempio. Il tempio chiude le porte alle 17.00. Bisogna arrivare prima altrimenti si rimane fuori. Cena alle 17.30 in una grande stanza insiemi agli altri ospiti. La mattina alle 6.30 la preghiera e subito dopo verso le 7.30 la cilazione. Bel posto per rilassarsi. Al check in ci ha assistito una signora gentile che ci ha spiegato tutto e sapeva anche qualche parola in italiano. Buona cena e colazione.

Lovely temple stay with great food and gorgeous location! We stayed one night at Kongo Sanmai-in with dinner and breakfast. The temple is located withdrawn from the main street which makes the location very quiet and serene. The food was very good and a great way to experience the buddhistic vegetarian dishes. And the morning prayer was a great experience as well. We were very happy that we stayed at this temple for our temple stay experience at Koyasan! Some things to know if you wanna stay here as well: - Some of the staff could speak English, but it's definitely a benefit to know Japanese, especially for the morning prayer where all (for our prayer session at least) was explained in Japanese. - The rooms are not the most soundproof, meaning you might be able to hear the ones staying in the neighbouring room if they speak loudly. But it wasn't really an issue for us - The baths are shared (even if you have your own toilet) and they are traditionally Japanese like the ones you might see at a public bathhouse with a shared bathtub and showers on a row. Its a fun and authentic experience, but if you're shy or uncomfortable with showering with others, just ensure you have showered before arriving here.

Amazing experience.

Tempelgästehaus, angenehmer Aufenthalt. Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal.

As expected

Our room was big and clean and the staff was friendly, overall the temple lodge was s great experience. Koyasan is a truly magical place to visit.

The location up a side street in a wooded area was lovely. The Buddhist temple and buildings (across the road from the provided accom) were very impressive and atmospheric. The meals were good and the prayer session in the morning was fascinating. The accom buildings were rather dingy and scruffy. The futons were very uncomfortable. The public bath was available in the evening but not in the morning. So there was no opportunity to shower in the morning. The monks were not particularly welcoming and rather abrupt. You got the feeling they tolerated visitors because of the large amount of yen we were bringing in.
