This is a unique property style in Japan. You are staying in temple lodgings (宿坊, shukubō). We enjoyed our stay, we had a great, simple room with all we needed. The room was on a separate floor to the workings of the temple. It also offered a unique opportunity to learn and observe the practices of the monks and the temple.

We loved the attention to detail, especially the vintage record player with Japanese vinyls and how well stocked the kitchen was (oil, spices, rice, coffee etc. - the best we had in Japan!). Staff was very accommodating. Very spacious, perfect for our group. We had to change the group size due to a mistake of our own and it was very easy to resolve, thank you for that. We had a great time!

This was one of the best accommodations I have stayed during my extensive travelling through Japan. I have nothing but words of best recommendations. The location is great, very close to the main Garan complex and Kongobuji temple. It is a place where I would love to stay again. The rooms and bathrooms vere very clean and in top shape. It gave the impression of luxury eventhough the main feeling about the hotel is more homey and cozy. It's run by a lovely young couple and our host could speak exceptional English! He gave us many useful tips about the town and pilgrimage trails. He also helped us with luggages and order of taxi and train shedule. He was always very polite and helpful with anything we needed. The place has wonderful view from window and rooms are very tastefuly decorated in traditional japanese style. If you are looking for peaceful housing to stay and enjoy Japan, this is your place.

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for the truly outstanding experience I had during my recent stay at your hotel. Every aspect of my visit surpassed expectations, making it a memorable and delightful stay. First and foremost, the food at your establishment was nothing short of exceptional.The accommodations were equally impressive. My room was not only impeccably clean and well-maintained but also tastefully decorated, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The attention to detail did not go unnoticed, and it truly contributed to the overall sense of luxury and relaxation. Of course, what truly sets your hotel apart is the unparalleled hospitality extended by your staff. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism.

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.

Very friendly and accommodating hosts! The guest house was at a great location (very close to the bus stop and a convenience store) and the family room was very spacious and clean. Would definitely stay here again and I highly recommend it if you are not planning to do a temple stay at Koyasan! I also highly recommend visiting the cafe - great croissants and drinks!

Great location right in the heart of koyasan town. Very convenient to walk to any attractions nearby. Room facilities are up to bar with some 2-3 star hotel I have been to. Tommy is a super friendly host. He recommends a lot of great local experiences from places to have dinner to different trekking trails and temple rituals you can attend for free. Tommy and his wife run a cafe next door and it’s open from 8am which is a rare thing in koyasan (most shops open at 11am). You get a big discount if you stay at Tommy guest house too ❤️

Tommy Guest House is one of the few guesthouses in Koyasan and certainly the best. Our room was very well equipped as described and quite big. Everything was extremely clean, there were clean towels, new water and tea on the second day. The guesthouse is just a few steps away from the bus stop in the center of Koyasan. Tommy is such a warm and courteous host. The contact before our stay was always quick and super nice. A clear recommendation!

A wonderful Guesthouse in a quieter part of Koyasan but within easy walking distance to all the major attractions. Extremely clean and tidy with large shared living spaces. Conveniently located close to the only Family Mart in town, a bus stop and a little park. Nori, the host, is most helpful, friendly and knowledgeable about the local area. I highly recommend Hachi Hachi.
