explorable area with easy access to temples and parks

My stay was fantastic, especially being just a short stroll from iconic landmarks like the Koyasan Daishikyokai and the beautiful Kongobuji temple, allowing me to soak in the rich culture of the area without any hassle. I also enjoyed the peaceful onsen experience, making it a perfect retreat after long days of exploring.

The morning ceremony offered a unique experience immersed in Buddhist culture. However, the shared bathroom setup felt awkward during my stay.

Staying here with my son's family was unforgettable. The serene gardens and the early morning prayer ceremony added a unique touch. The onsen was a splendid way to unwind after a day of exploring this magical place.

In my wife’s opinion, dinner options were too limited.

The beautiful garden and pond created a serene atmosphere, enhancing our stay. The vegetarian meals were not only flavorful but also beautifully presented, showcasing a variety of culinary styles. I particularly enjoyed the outdoor onsen, which provided a relaxing backdrop after a day of exploring.

The shared bathroom setup was a bit inconvenient at times.

the yukatas were a great touch, but the common area curfew felt a bit odd.

Just a smart choice for a trip in Wakayama with high value for money. The early morning ceremony was a unique experience that really added to our stay. Make sure to arrange dinner ahead of time since nearby options close early.

We stayed in a Japanese-Style Room with Toilet, and it was super comfy and spacious. We had a lovely view of the garden. The tatami mats and simple decor really gave it that authentic Japanese feel. The room did get pretty cold at night, though, so be ready with some warm clothes. Attending the early morning ceremony was a nice touch that really added to the experience.

Staying at Koyasan Onsen Fukuchiin was quite an experience. The room, a Japanese-Style Room with Toilet, offered comfort with a lovely view of the beautiful garden outside. Loved the early morning ceremony. it brought a peaceful start to the day. The onsen facilities were great for relaxing after exploring, even though the outdoor bath was a bit too small for crowded times. I can't forget the vegan dinner. beautifully presented meals showcased a creative culinary experience, but the flavors fell a bit flat for my taste. A clearer menu or labels for each dish would have been helpful. Dinner time felt overly early at 5:45 PM, especially since surrounding places closed early. The curfew at 9 PM felt a tad too strict, as we were asked to leave the common spaces early, yet a loud group lingered. Overall, this stay had its highlights but could benefit from better scheduling and communication. Definitely appreciated the unique ambiance and serene setting, but some services need fine-tuning.
