For a truly historic and immersive stay this Temple is perfect. Near all the most significant sites in Koyasan.

Probably the best meal experience I had in Japan. The entire experience was lovely and the staff was incredibly friendly. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience that we won’t forget.

The food is Michelin star worthy!!!! Presentation and taste was amazing for vegetarían. The staff is so very friendly and helpful. Beautiful Garden and temple. A real japanese accomodation. A once in a lifetime experience, expensive for our budget but worth every penny. Thank you!!!

The whole experience was one of the very best we had on our 3 week tour of Japan. The welcome was great, and the meals were delicious!!!

Our stay at Souji-in Shukubo in Koyasan was truly an experience beyond words. From the moment we drove our rental car into the mountains, we knew this place was something special. The drive itself was breathtaking, with incredible mountain views and forests covered in beautiful moss. It felt like entering another world. The temple stay was unforgettable. The traditional dinner was absolutely delicious and a wonderful cultural experience. In the evening, we joined the night tour of Okunoin Cemetery, and it was one of the most magical experiences of our entire trip to Japan. Walking through the ancient cedar trees, surrounded by thousands of lanterns, temples, and centuries of history, was something we will never forget. The next morning, we had the opportunity to meditate and watch the monks perform their morning prayers. It was peaceful, inspiring, and deeply moving. Breakfast was another wonderful traditional meal that completed the experience perfectly. To make our stay even more memorable, we had an unexpected flat tire when we returned to our rental car that morning. We were in the middle of the mountains, and it was a stressful situation. The staff at Souji-in immediately stepped in to help. They kindly let us use their phone to call roadside assistance, helped us communicate, and made sure we were taken care of. Their kindness, patience, and willingness to help saved us so much time and stress. We are incredibly grateful for their hospitality.This place is truly magical

Just know that the futons are only about 10cm deep so not super comfy if used to sleeping on a bed. Room was clean but the carpet on the hallway to the bathroom was really stained. The staff was super kind. Convenient to walk around the little town and the mausoleum.

Such a special experience!! 10/10 would recommend to anybody

Staying at Sojiin was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The atmosphere was incredibly peaceful and authentic, and the traditional dinner was absolutely delicious. This was one of the most memorable parts of our trip to Japan.
