“A peaceful and unforgettable stay.”
Had a wonderful temple stay. The location is perfect for exploring the town. Food was excellent and the garden-view room was nice and comfortable. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Highly recommend! P.S. If visiting in autumn be sure to pack some warm clothes, as it can get chilly in the evening.

An authentic sleeping in temple. Please do not expect a hotel service. Sleeping here might not be suitable for everyone but for one night it is a valuable experience and I would recommend to try. This is a completely different Japan from the city. There is limited time for showering and also you suppose to be back until 9 pm. Afterwards the accomodation is closing. Good location. The cemetery is just a few minutes away. We also recieved a small gift which was very nice and kind.

“Beautiful and peaceful stay in a busy mountain town”
We had a lovely stay in this peaceful and relaxing place. It was a wonderful sanctuary away from the bustle of the town, which was packed with tourists. Our room was spacious and had a beautiful view out to the garden and fishpond. Plus, the futons were already made up for us! We loved the onsen and the traditional meals served in our room. The staff were so very polite and helpful. Morning prayers was a unique experience for us.

Loved the whole experience of staying in a temple. The morning prayer was beautiful. Everything was very comfortable and taken care of. The location of the temple is excellent. They helped us keep our luggage the next day after check out so we could also go sightseeing with ease.

“BEING FILMED WHILE IN THE SHOWER”
AVOID THIS ACCOMMODATION. I hesitated to write something, however with a heavy heart I do want to warn people. This accommodation has a shared bathroom and a set time frame where bathing is possible between 7 and 9 pm. The female bathroom is on the ground floor and has a window facing a small public alley behind the accommodation. While it is impossible to look outside as there are blinds before the window, there is a small gap. When I was showering I noticed a smartphone facing me, when I understood what was happening I walked towards the phone when someone suddenly took it away. This means I was being filmed when I was showering at the accommodation. I told the staff what had happened, however, they did not speak English at all, so I hysterically left the accommodation because I did not want to stay there any longer. PLEASE BE AWARE, this could have happened to anyone and the person knows the bathing time hours, the right window, and probably waits in the ally until the sound of running water to commit his crime. STAY AWAY
