Très bien sauf la cérémonie du matin

Très bon séjour, cadre et emplacement idéalement pour visiter la ville. Calme revigorant, seul bémol, la cérémonie du matin à 7h n’est pas expliqué en dehors du japonais. L’établissement en lui même ainsi que les repas sont très bien.

あたたかいもてなしに、お寺らしい雰囲気

古い建物ですが、広い和室には昔ながらのこたつがセットしてあり、寝巻きは、はだけて寒い浴衣ではなく、誰もが着やすい作務衣でした。風呂やトイレは部屋にもあり、ベランダから美しい庭に降りられました。布団は羽布団で清潔で暖かくて心地良く、朝までぐっすり眠りました。 寒い時期で、夕飯時間より遅れて到着したにもかかわらず、広い和室を石油ストーブで温めてくださり、椅子とテーブルは座りやすく、夕飯が終わるまで、お寺の方がそっと別室で片付けを待っていてくれました。 朝夕のメニューは、翌日泊まった有名な宿坊よりずっと美味くて量もバラエティもあり、大変に満足しました。 共同の中風呂に入りましたが、夜中じゅういつでも入ることができ、熱くて快適かつ清潔でした。 朝の勤行では、秘蔵の仏像見学など派手なモノはありませんでしたが、丁寧にお坊さんがお寺の大切にしているものをひとつひとつ説明してくださいました。 快適にもてなそうという気持ちと、素朴なお寺らしさとが感じられて、大変気に入りました。 今度は、ぜひ、家族で宿泊したいです。また外国からのお客様も、是非、お連れしたいと思いました。

전문 숙박시설과 같은 서비스는 아니지만, 깔끔하고 맛있는 식사가 있는 템플스테이를 체험할 수 있습니다. 일본어로 소통하는 것이 원만하나, 영어 안내문도 존재합니다. 내부 시설은 고풍스러우며, 기본적으로 아침식사가 나오지만, 주변 음식점들이 17시에 문을 닫기 때문에 숙박시에는 저녁식사도 추가하는 편이 좋습니다. 아침 예불에 참가 가능하니 체험해 보시길 바랍니다.

快適に過ごせました。

快適に過ごせました。奥の院一の橋バス停に近く、初めて訪れても迷いません。これからの季節は気温がとても低いけど、暖房はガスファンヒーターで快適な部屋でした。チェックインの日は晴天だったので、傘を持参してなかったが、翌日はにわか雨だったが、傘を貸して下さった。本当に有難かったです。

また行きたいです

朝のお勤め参加はとてもいい体験でした。 精進料理はおかずが沢山ありどれもとても美味しかったです。 お部屋は広々して清潔感があり、窓から見える日本庭園も素晴らしかったです。 奥の院の入り口、バス停、ナイトツアーの集合場所もほど近く、その他の主要な寺院へもすべて徒歩圏内でどこへ行くにも便利でロケーションも最高でした。 宿坊に質素なイメージを抱いていましたが十分過ぎるくらい快適でした。 また高野山に来る機会があれば利用させていただきたいと思います。

11号室に泊まって

今回素泊まりで予約したのですが、宿泊前日にご住職様よりお電話で、周囲の食べるところは皆閉まる時間が早いけど、食事は無しで良いですか?とお知らせいただき食事を付けていただきました。お電話がなければ夕食を食べ損なうところでした。 お部屋はとても広く次の間付きで、シャワートイレ付き。外人観光客向けにリホームしたのか新しく快適でした。 本堂は150年経っているそうです。 そんな由緒あるところに泊まれて嬉しいです。 快適でした。

若い、お坊さんは、親切で良かったけど、朝ごはんの前の、お勤めのに、参加できなかった。起こしてくれると思い込んでた。朝ごはんの時、お代わりできるか、聞いた時のおじさん怖かった。

Great upgraded rooms and magical garden

It was nearly empty so we were upgraded. Usually I think there would be a lot of people. Rooms were excellent and service good. Food was simple but for the price I can’t complain.

Wonderful stay

Was a wonderful stay at Sekisho-in. Room was very clean, spacious and comfortable. Food was very good and we were made to feel very welcome. The temple was a lovely experience and the town of Koyasan is just so beautiful.

Arrived in late Feb. Wonderful experience. Cold but heaters in room worked well.
Earl, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The amenities exceeded expectations. The room was larger than expected. We had a four futon room with three futons setup. It would have been a bit tight with four. The room had a living area, a sleeping area, a garden viewing area, and a balcony. We did not opt for the private bathroom. We may have stayed during a slow night (Early Jan) because we still had the shared public bath to ourselves after dinner, and we enjoyed a nice soak. I saw an older review saying there are no hair dryers. They have hair dryers now. The dinner and breakfast was good as well. If you're not used to Japanese vegetarian dishes, you might find the food lacking. It's a lot of radishes, bamboo shoots, seaweed/kelp, tofu, squash, rice, and mochi. Most of it is served cold with unlimited warm rice and hot tea. I thought it was quite good. The morning ceremony was a great experience. The monks will encourage you to do the incense offering. A booklet in your room will explain what to do. Read and research beforehand as it's not explained during the ceremony. Overall, I'm glad we stayed here. It was a good experience. I did not get to interact with the monks. I wish I was able to do this to learn more about Koyasan; however, I understand most of them do not speak English.

8/10 Very good

Nice reasonably priced place to stay in Koyasan. Location - perfect -close to okunoin cemetery and temples. Room - sufficient futon setup with a low table with kettle and tea. Heater in room - heats up fast - good because the common areas are outside temperature. Don't run heater all night, but not needed just spark up in the morning and instant heat. Like camping :-) Arrival - checked in at ~12 noon . They were organized and ready for us - excellent. Little english spoken - but not a problem - we got all the info we needed for the temple stay. Amenities - lots of shared bathroom /washup areas. We used the hot bath rooms to clean up/soak/warm up - it was great! (onsen like) There are two mens and two ladies bath/onsen rooms. Very nice. Honour system coffee machine for morning. Food - very creative and tasty vegetarian dinner 5:30 (extra fee booked with room - do it - it's a good experience) Breaky was at ~7:15 -7:30 after morning service - which was also good to do (6:50AM). NOTE . I booked the dinner after the original booking via email - but they had not record of it - or lost in translation. We were able to book dinner as we arrived at 11:45. dinner bookings taken until 12 noon of same day. Best to book at hotel booking time. FYI - We left right after breakfast to catch a 8:11 AM bus right outside the temple to get back to Tokyo that same day. Easy (but multiple) transit back to Osaka then Tokyo

고야산을 걸어서 다닐수 있어요

사찰 숙박을 경험할수 있습니다. 다만 사찰 음식이라 저는 좋았는데 제 딸은 먹지 못하네요. 온천도 저녁만 가능한데 거기다가 21시까지라 아쉽고 오전에 하지 못하는 것도 아쉽네요
