ci è piaciuto molto essere vostri ospiti, esperienza ottima per il contesto. posto semplice curato e pulito. buona la cena e la colazione vegetariana. è stato molto suggestivo partecipare al rito del mattino e visitare il tempio e le sue stanze. l'unica cosa è che quando abbiamo chiesto di avere un asciugamano per fare l'onsen ci hanno detto che la nostra prenotazione non prevedeva la fornitura dell'asciugamano ma quando noi abbiamo prenotato non c'era l'opzione di scegliere altrimenti avrei scelto sicuramente con la dotazione dell'asciugamano. poi abbiamo chiesto di averlo e pagarlo lì direttamente ma ci hanno detto che non era possibile. grazie comunque per l'esperienza

I only booked one night, but left feeling genuinely restored. The Daien-In private room was comfortable and well-appointed, the meals were wonderful, and between the sutra copying session, morning prayers, and the quiet meditative rhythm of the whole experience — everything I’d hoped a temple stay would be. Koyasan itself is a rare kind of place. I hope to return.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Good location and fantastic experience. Especially with the morning ceremony. Take note that this is a temple lodging and there will be minimum customer service provided. Public bath closes at 9pm, so for guests attending the night tour at the cemetry, there will not be enough time to use after the tour is finished.

We were two couples who stayed at the Daienin temple: my partner and I and our two guests. Overall, we were satisfied with the experience. We especially appreciated the care taken for one of us, who has some food allergies. The food was sufficient and well prepared. The rooms were spacious but a bit too warm for us. We knew that baths and toilets would be communal. In and of themselves, they were sufficient but basic. The communal bath that seats up to six at once seemed small, but because it did not fill up while we used it, we found it acceptable. The priest who performed the morning ceremony made it a good experience for all of us.

On the main road, so very easy to reach by bus and centrally located mid-way between the temples and the cemetry. Their curfew is not onerous, so you can get to the cemetry after dark. There is no access to the garden and the facilities are a little 'tired'. The food and welcome are adequate.

Peacefull, empty and calming. We missed interaction with staff (bad English and always in the hurry) and saw one monk only. Would expect that more details about living in temple could be demonstrated. Overall, interestimg experience.
