Hotels near Kongobu-ji Temple, Koya

Lovely surroundings and the service is attentive and polite. The morning service is a great experience!

Very interesting and calm place to visit. Very comfortable rooms, and nice staff. I also had a conversation with monk, please, enjoy conversation, they can translate on your language.

The room is spacious, bright, clean and comfortable. The breakfast and dinner are very rich, and the environment is elegant and pleasant. In particular, the traditional Buddhist culture experience left a deep impression on us. A great stay!

If you never try temple stay this is a must. Cons side u only bath once a day from 4pm to 8pm. With 4 person sharing the same bath tub. Upside the room given is so luxurious and night dining in room. But as this is temple expect all vegetarian.

Definitely interesting experience. Partly tourist tradition, partly religious. As a new, atypical experience in Japan, the meal ritual and the vegetarian cuisine itself were interesting. Participation in the morning Buddhist prayer was valuable. Comfortable nice leather slippers. Saving hot springs on a rainy day. The strict end of the day time was inconvenient for us: the front door closed at 9 pm, and we were not allowed to linger during our walk. Quiet time from 9 p.m.Baths close at 8 and 9 pm. Thanks for the experience!🙏

This temple stay is amazing. Vegetarian breakfast and dinner was great. The morning prayer and fire ritual was great to take part in. They also offered an afternoon mediation tutorial. There was a night tour for the cemetery, however I did not take part. It was a little concerning that the English tour was ¥1000 yen more than the Japanese tour. Overall I highly recommend this place.

There was everything that you expect from a temple stay. Breakfast and dinner were very good! Be aware that there will be no fire ceremony on morning, but only a pray

A short walk from Ekoin, very hospitable and friendly service. Room is big and clean with heater provided. Public bath is big but there’s only one so have to reserve slot. They have fire goma ritual everyday for guests and also sutra writing for free provided. Very recommended temple stay!

The toilet and bath seemed to have been renovated, and unlike the atmosphere of the room, they were very modern and clean. I was very satisfied with being able to do morning services as is customary in a temple lodging.

Very nice stay, very friendly & welcoming staff and the room we had had the view on the garden which is beautiful! The common area is nice for sitting down for a drink with friends!
