Hitta 2-stjärniga hotell i Koya

"Vi bokade ett rum med badrum, men en munk ledde oss till ett rum i halvkällaren som var iskallt. Han visade oss duschen och toaletten i korridoren. När vi berättade för honom att vi hade betalat för mycket för ett rum med badrum, tog han oss till en annan gammal munk som insisterade på att vi hade gjort ett misstag och att inget av deras rum hade badrum. Jag hade uppenbarligen betalat flera hundra extra för ett badrum på rummet, och det stod tydligt angivet på beställningen. Han fortsatte säga åt mig att kontakta Ctrip, och han hade också kontaktat en agent. Det tog ungefär en och en halv timme att reda ut saker och ting innan de ledde oss tillbaka till vårt ursprungliga rum. De öppnade en liten, låst dörr (vi hade frågat vad det var, och han sa att det var ett servicerum), och inuti fanns en smutsig toalett och ett litet handfat. Hur som helst, det finns inga hotell på Mount Koya; om du vill bo måste du åka till tempellogi, som är dyra och i dåligt skick. Tänk dig för innan du köper något."

"The location is very close to Okunoin Cemetery, so you could take an evening walk and easily return before the doors close at 9 PM. It felt safe and convenient, and the atmosphere in the evening was beautiful. The bus runs frequently, so getting to the station the next day was no problem at all. The temple offers a Goma (fire) ritual in the afternoon, and one prayer stick is included. The morning meditation was also a wonderful experience, very impressive. The staff were genuinely positive, friendly and helpful. Some of them speak very good English, they explain everything clearly, and they let me leave my luggage when I arrived early. I highly recommend this place, but a few practical things worth mentioning: – The stairs to the guest rooms are very steep, and the temple slippers are slippery. If you have trouble with stairs or simply want to avoid the risk, I recommend asking for a room on the first floor. – I visited in early December, and it was really (really!) cold as the corridors are unheated. You absolutely need very warm socks for meditation and the fire ritual. I was completely frozen. – My room took a long time to warm up, but the kotatsu made a huge difference once it heated up, and there was also a gas heater + a tea set with hot water. – Having a sink in the room was a very convenient bonus, but the water in mine was cold though. In the bathroom hot water is available."

"We didn’t expect it’s not a hostel but Buddhist temple) it was a nice experience to live here. It’s very clean inside and rooms look like typical Japanese minkas inside. The place is very picturesque around and it’s easy to get there."

"Esperienza fantastica in questo monastero in cui è possibile accedere alle cerimonie di meditazione. La cena e la colazione serviti sono fantastici. Si trova vicino alla fermata del bus e a 15 minuti a piedi dal cimitero di Okuno-in (uno dei luoghi di interesse di Koya-San). Gli ambienti sono freddi ma è normale essendo in un monastero, le camere e dove si mangia comunque sono ben riscaldati."

"住宿和寺院不在同一下隔開20米，寺院非常安靜漂亮古樸，住宿完全日式，設施齊全，早晨6：30開始的早課儀式感滿滿，停車方便。"
