Possibly the best beef I have tasted in my life. Great experience and great food. You probably cannot get a better ryokan experience anywhere else in Japan than here. Super cozy.

It was about a 30 minute drive from the Koyasan Okunoin parking lot. The room has a nostalgic design that makes you feel like you're back at home, and you can spend a relaxing time listening to the sounds of bell insects. The welcome drink, soba tea, was so delicious that I had to get a second helping lol.The food was delicious, with local specialties such as amago, sesame tofu, and mackerel! Also, the tempura made with lots of fresh vegetables made by the landlady and the deer bean salad were very delicious! I was very satisfied with the luxurious menu!The lights go out at 10pm, so after dinner, we went for a walk around Okunoin Temple at night. I was able to experience a fantastic world!It was a wonderful inn where you could sightsee Mt. Koya, stay at a cheaper price than a guesthouse, have delicious food and drinks, a friendly hostess, and if the timing was right, you could even see a sea of ​​clouds!I would like to take care of you again when you go to Koyasan! thank you very much!

We stayed here at the end of June with a group of 5 girls.Enter from Mt. Koya to watch fireflies and attack the sea of ​​clouds!Experience the thrill of dancing fireflies and a fantastic sea of ​​clouds in the garden!It was a very memorable trip!The inn is filled with the heartfelt care of the hostess Kaako...Dinner is game food and delicious drinks.The room has been renovated and is comfortable to sit around a large table...It was quiet, cool and comfortable!You can also enjoy the cherry blossoms in spring and the autumn leaves (^^)This is a place I would definitely like to visit again.

If you want to experience the traditional & more rural side of Japan, stay here! We were very warmly welcomed by Kaako, a fun and caring woman. Her family home lies in a beautiful and quiet environment. She cooks delicious meals with veggies straight from her garden. About 20 mins scenic drive from Koya. Highly recommended!
