We learned meditation techniques and took part in the goma ritual, which was truly incredible. The shukubo is very clean and well maintained. There’s no AC or private restroom since the original structure is preserved, but that adds to the authenticity of the traditional Japanese stay. Highly recommended! ##### Alana Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ulrike May 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Unforgettable stay - wonderful Amazing experience- worth the money ##### Ulrike Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gretchen Jun 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort A hidden gem in the world.

Everything was available in English and the staff were amazing and helpful. Would absolutely recommend the night tour as well as all the other activities included with your stay! ##### Chloe Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steven Jul 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Everything was just great! It made us feel very comfortable. It was helpful that all the staff were capable of communicating with us in English. Since people are coming to experience a true Japanese style of living, be sure to attend the morning prayer service, and the fire ritual. They cost nothing to attend and give a wonderful insight into the culture of Japanese people and Buddhism in particular. ![Goma fire ritual](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6300c218-8d85-4a73-9056-a624adfb5904-1753514779859.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Olin Crnetery](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0ac725f1-1bfe-4e2d-b686-19f63b8316db-1753514780026.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View from our room](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4cb1d3a9-0f53-4cb2-929a-a1047ecbfd5d-1753514780501.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Entrance to the property](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/68bfe043-39d8-47d8-a85f-7f31f9bbef43-1753514780741.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Steven Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Johannes Aug 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Koyasan is a wonderful place to stay a night.

A very attentive staff and the dinner and breakfast (Shojin ryori) in the room was exceptional. If you ever get a chance to travel to Koyasan, make sure you stay at this temple. You will not be disappointed. ##### Corey Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leanne Dec 24, 2023 Liked: Property conditions & facilities #### Temple stay Fabulous staff/monks Very attentive.

Very walkable and convenient. Fire ceremony was wonderful. Very welcoming place. I stayed 3 nights and it was wonderful. ##### Susan Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Elijah Jul 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wonderful for what it is. This is not a hotel stay. Food was amazing, as were the experiences that came with the stay. The only downside was there are no private washing facilities, if that is a deal-breaker for you. ##### Elijah Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anh Tuan Dec 27, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I wish we’d spent more time here and in Koyasan! The temple stay was so comfortable and experiential, with beautiful views everywhere we turned. It is also right on the main street, within easy walking distance to the main attractions such as the Okunoin Cemetery (in fact, the Cemetary night walk starts here). This is a special highlight among the many great things we’ve done in Japan! ##### Anh Tuan Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dimitrios Apr 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staying in Eko-in is an experience not to be missed. Our room was amazing, in the annex building, which felt brand new. The night cemetery tour has been the highlight of our Japan trip and the morning prayer and fire ritual were also great. Food was amazing and plentiful although Japanese breakfast wasn't a hit for us. We bought some pastries from Family Mart to have as backup, which came in handy. Free parking is provided too. The monks were all very welcoming and spoke good English. ##### Dimitrios Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thi Dec 1, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great experience at Ekoin temple.

The room was beautiful, mix of traditional and modern amenities. We booked a room that included private bathroom and it was probably one of the best and memorable stays we had in Japan. The food was fantastic and the staff were kind, patient and accommodating. They appeared to be used to foreigners and travelers, and able to navigate and meet everyone’s need. ##### Febby Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hampton Inn Manhattan/Times Square Central](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-ManhattanTimes-Square-Central.h10961545.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in The Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.ca/The-Blue-Mountains-Hotels.d6129678.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in East York](https://www.expedia.ca/East-York-Toronto-Hotels.0-n59236-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Niagara Parkway Court Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Niagara-Parkway-Court-Motel.h6480285.Hotel-Information) > > [Canalta Jurassic – Drumheller](https://www.expedia.ca/Drumheller-Hotels-Drumheller-Canalta.h3750662.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Inn Dryden](https://www.expedia.ca/Dryden-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Dryden.h2162.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Continental Saigon](https://www.expedia.ca/Ho-Chi-Minh-City-Hotels-Hotel-Continental-Saigon.h481659.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Resort Tahiti by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Faaa-Hotels-InterContinental-Resort-Tahiti.h20394.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Montreal](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels.d178288.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Aloft San Francisco Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-Aloft-San-Francisco-Airport.h13950.Hotel-Information) > > [Jasper Way Inn Resort & Campground](https://www.expedia.ca/Clearwater-Hotels-Jasper-Way-Inn.h54234484.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Bermuda](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Bermuda-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d20-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Mississauga by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hotel-Suites-Mississauga.h807429.Hotel-Information) > > [Mohegan Sun](https://www.expedia.ca/Montville-Hotels-Mohegan-Sun.h894248.Hotel-Information) > > [Sagamore Hotel South Beach - An All Suite Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-Sagamore-Hotel-South-Beach-An-All-Suite-Hotel.h868216.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Winnipeg](https://www.expedia.ca/Winnipeg-Hotels.d6141041.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Grand Times Hotel Laval - Centropolis](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-GRAND-TIMES-HOTEL-LAVAL-CENTROPOLIS.h68330467.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Richmond (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yvr/toronto-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from San Diego (SAN) to Goffs (YHZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/san/yhz/san-diego-to-halifax) > > [Malaysia Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Malaysia-Airlines-Flights.cMH.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Santa Cruz (FNC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/fnc/edmonton-to-funchal) > > [Flights from Hamilton (YHM) to El Prat de Llobregat (BCN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhm/bcn/hamilton-to-barcelona) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Schwechat (VIE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/vie/calgary-to-vienna) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Reykjavik (RKV)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/rkv/toronto-to-reykjavik) > > [Flights from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Ahmedabad (AMD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/amd/edmonton-to-ahmedabad) > > [Emirates](https://www.expedia.ca/Emirates-Flights.cEK.Travel-Guide-Airlines)
