The breakfast was amazing, we stayed for 3 nights and every morning it was something different, nutritious and delicious! Staying with Paulo was amazing, she really goes above and beyond to make sure you feel welcome and have everything you need. The space itself is traditional Japanese and was beautiful to relax in, highly recommend! Koyasan is a very special place, if I was to ever return I would stay again at koyasan space as it fitted the vibe of the whole village.

The temple is just a stone throw away from 奥の院 一の橋. And within reasonable walking distance to the town centre.

Own comfortable private floor upstairs. Included: dining room with a mini fridge, toilet and bedroom with two single beds and an AC. Beds were hardish in a very good way, felt well rested in the morning. Shared bathroom and kitchen downstairs. Everything was perfectly clean and working as they should. Hosts were exceptionally caring. We missed our train station and they came and picked us up from 4km away with their car without us asking. Nice couple, showed us the apartment and gave us clear instructions on everything. Pro tip if you are walking to Koyasan from Jison-In: ask the hosts to order you a taxi beforehand for the morning. Trip from this accommodation to Jison-in was less than 10mins with a taxi and cost us 1600 yen.

Our stay at Fuki Juku was undeniably a highlight of our trip to Japan! The charming hosts picked us up at the Hashimoto Train Station and drove the 30 minutes to their guesthouse, with a stop at a beautiful view for pictures. The pick up and drop off is included in their rate. We were fortunate in that our family of four were the only guests that night and we had the whole floor to ourselves. At 6:30pm the most amazing dinner was ready and presented artistically with a touch of folk art and nostalgia to create a memorable atmosphere. After dinner we had fireworks (sparklers) and then walked through the peaceful village. Breakfast was equally delightful and then they brought us to Koya for photos and dropped us off at the information centre in Koyasan. The service and hospitality was above and beyond and was a wonderful way to get started on our Kohechi Trail in Kumano Kodo!! This was a truly unique Japanese experience away from the tourist areas. We highly recommend it!

    Great hosts, good location, very clean and comfortable. Lucky to have their restaurant on site for dinner - one of nicest meals we had in Japan - that is, home cooked by Guest House owner, an outstanding chef.

    Comfortable room and great hosts. Incredibly helpful to us even after we checked out and returned to collect our left bags soaking wet after getting caught in the rain. Our host provided towels and heating for us to dry out and warm up. The restaurant was great as well. Highly recommend.
