Far away from Shibuya, we traveled over 3 hours via public transportation to get here. We arrived at night, and it was a nice adventure with family. My family really enjoyed the stay as it was immersive. There was a lot of detail to dinner and breakfast. We only stayed for 1 night for the morning prayer, which was an experience in itself. I enjoyed the long staircase which I didn’t get the chance to run up and be sore for the whole trip. There’s a lot to do here in terms of activity, and the staff is quite impressive being fluent in English. The price was a bit much for me, but with everything considered, it was worth it as it put a smile on my family face. I was in a land that I was not familiar with, but my experience was met with welcoming arms. My father bowed his head as he left out of respect.

This ryokan is beautiful and set in a gorgeous area of kakurinbo. It was a trek to get to on foot but it is on Mt. Minobu. A beautiful walk during the day and so much to see. The staff was so helpful with everything and the kaiseki meal is a must experience.

The whole experience was beautiful and very unique.

Our room was wonderful and very comfortable and the Buddhist chanting and prayers around the grounds was enchanting!

The property is a beautiful temple ryokan with many old features still present. We did appreciate the welcome and learning about the hotel and the garden. The food was delicious and it was very relaxed having dinner in the restaurant area with separate eating areas. Wearing the wedding kimono's was a great and special experience.

Great temple lodge

Great temple lodge. Due to shared bath and toilet, it is not as comfortable as hotel but it is an opportunity for enthusiastic traveler to get intimated with the old Japanese culture and the staff try their best to make you comfortable as much as possible. Nice and delicious Kaiseki (Japanese meal set). Staff are kind and very friendly.

Plus: - emplacement au top (à côté du temple Kuonji) - bâtiment et jardin (traditionnel, petit jardin superbe quand on mange) - système de réservation du bain qui permet d'en profiter seul pendant une demi heure - chambre traditionnelle bien équipée - personnel parle un peu anglais et toujours volontaire pour aider - les repas sont originaux Moins: - la chambre que j'avais était juste à côté des toilettes et des lavabos - petits oublis du personnel (yukata manquant/ pour le repas du soir en surcoût, je n'ai pas eu une partie du dessert. Il semble qu'ils ne servent le dessert complet que lorsque l'on reste 2 nuits, ce qui est déjà assez bizarre en soi. Étant resté deux nuits, je l'ai signalé et on m'a dit que l'on me fournirait l'ensemble au petit déjeuner, ce qui n'est pas arrivé...) - repas très légers si vous faites de la randonnée Je n'aurais pas signalé la plupart de mes remarques pour un logement moins onéreux. Mais au vu du tarif je pense qu'il faut être un peu plus exigeant.
