Absolutely loved staying here! Food is excellent, the room is comfortable, and I enjoyed attending the morning service. Koya-San was also a highlight of my two weeks in Japan and my stay at Fudou-in really enhanced that experience.

We had a very pleasant stay. The food was excellent, everything was spotless, and the staff was exceptionally attentive. We especially enjoyed the morning ceremony, which made the experience memorable. On the downside, the stay felt quite expensive by any standard. Considering the price, it was disappointing that every step in the hallway could be heard, and that drinks other than tea were not included.

Excellent, but overpriced

Everything was excellent, people are very welcoming, nice and kind. The prayer in the morning is not to be missed. The food is vegan, and it is ok, but surely not the best in Japan. Overall, I think the whole experience is overpriced.

Amazing hike to the Okunion Temple. Unfortunately for us it rained on one day so we did not take a hike that we wanted to, but we will need to come back!

The temple is lovely and the area is rich with history. Dinner and breakfast were delicious and ample. The room was very comfortable for our party of six, with beautiful views, a private bath, and large sitting area. The beds are futons, so they may not be comfortable for those who have back/physical issues. The morning prayer service is a must. The monks and staff were wonderful. A memorable stay!

10/10 Exceptional

The Morning prayers was a fantastic experience. We got a chance to participate after official service was completed. They took the time to explain the temple and Buddha. I have zero complaints. The only thing that wasn’t expected is the heater in the room die in the middle of the night . My opinion remains unchanged despite the setback. The staff really goes above and beyond to help with anything. I felt like I was received like family for overnight stay. If I was to come back to Koyasan I’ll be more than happy to stay at fudoin. Thanks to the staff for a memorable experience. I will not forget.

Absolutely wonderful experience!! The room and all of the facilities were exceptionally clean. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. The various flavors, textures, and colors were a real feast for the senses. The morning ceremony was very interesting and meaningful. It started the day off on a very serene note. Koyasan is a very peaceful, sacred, and beautiful place, and Koyasan Syukubou Fudou-in was the perfect place to stay. I will definitely return the next time I visit Japan.
