Map & Location

8 rooms from £356 per night

“Experience temple living at an upmarket 'Shukubo' on the edge of Koyasan. Take part in prayers, meditation and sutra copying with the monastic community. Guestrooms are a modern take on traditional style, with garden views and the 'Shojin Ryori' (Buddhist cuisine) menu is served in-room. Wonderful.”
