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 #### Susan Mar 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The English speaking staff were so helpful and if they couldn’t speak in English they still tried hard to help.

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 #### Randy Apr 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort This was an amazing and 180 degree shift from Osaka.

At first please note that this is not a traditional hotel, but a active temple which hosts travellers. My room was traditional room with a tatami floor and shared bathroom. Room and bathroom were both clean and nice. The atmosphere in the temple was calm and quiet throughout my whole stay. Food that was served was amazing. It was also interesting to follow the morning service and the fire ritual. ##### Jenni Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Isabel Nov 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Koysan Last minute idea to stay at a Temple while in Osaka, paid high price for a room for 4 people over 2000$ for 1 night vegetarian meals included. Overall it was a different, unique experience, no regrets. ##### Isabel Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maria Aug 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Koyasan Eko-in Escape busy Tokyo or Osaka for this calming, welcoming and nurturing town of Koyasan. You’ll be warmly greeted regardless of what shops you enter or which temple you stay in. However, I must say that the team at Eko-in really goes above and beyond to make for an incredible experience from start to finish. They guide you step by step upon check-in and let you know what to expect along the way. Things not to be missed: -4:30 pm guided meditation -In-room massage therapy by monks -7pm cemetery walk (if it doesn’t rain, ours got cancelled due to weather) -7am morning prayer -7:30am fire ritual Cannot recommend highly enough!! 🏯🍜🎋📿 ##### Maria Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Carl Mar 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The temple and the surrounding area are absolutely beautiful! Trying to check in though was a bit of a pain. It took me about 5 tries to finally get the person meeting me at the entrance to understand that I had a reservation and wasn’t just there to take a picture. He kept telling me to come back in the morning. I had to take the paper from his hand and point my name out for everything to get across. The rest of the stay went extremely well however. ##### Carl Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Siegfried Oct 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Heel fijne ervaring! Overnachten in een tempel. Met half pension. Enige minpunt.

The vegetarian dishes were the best we ever had. Our room, the semi-suite was luxurious and welcoming. The staff was friendly and spoke very good English. We do not regret going to Koya and staying at the Ekoin. It was definitely a highlight in our trip. From the ceremonies to the food to the cemetery tour at night with an amazing guide. ##### Anne-Sophie Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alana Sep 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities An exceptional and unforgettable experience. 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 #### Donna Sep 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I was welcomed with a warm greeting by an english speaking monk.

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 #### ???
