Amazing care and hospitality in every aspect of our stay. Beautiful nature and approach to creating a welcoming atmosphere for all of my group. The nearby nature trails are the most spectacular I have seen in Japan.

What can I say about this magical mountain place that paints the right picture? It is very difficult to explain and this wasn't even during sakura season... First of all, I definitely had the best room by luck and an incredible view of the forest. This meant I was meeting an animal every day, just through my window. I saw a deer mum and her baby, briefly a tanuki and twice I saw a musasabi. Even if you don't see them, you will definitely hear the musasabi! As for the place itself, the room is very carefully decorated and well kept as is the whole property. I could've genuinely stayed inside the whole time, but the nature is a must. There are incredibly tall trees and a very charming street with restaurants and shops as well as the temple and more, but you need to walk uphill to it if you don't have a car. The host may be able to drive you as he is very welcoming and I must not forget to mention, the amazing food! Be ready to eat a lot and experience a variety of impressive flavours. Bonus: you can enjoy a calm garden if you don't want to go on adventures and there is a cute sleepy shiba inu mascot called Tetsu. I genuinely can't emphasise enough how much I enjoyed this place and area. It was a treat for myself, but it truly surprised me. Thank you to the whole team for making it so comfortable, this was especially appreciated as a solo traveller. Can't wait to be back, maybe with sakura blooming :)

I had so many expectations and Ekoin delivered everything. The temple itself is gorgeous, it is over 1.000 years, but so well kept, just impecable tatamis, garden, paintings, artwork. Also, it is so close to Okunoin cementery...i loved this part of town, so calm, feels like another time. The shared restrooms were a concern before getting there, but they ended up being one of the best of our entire trip - the bath is at the onsen, but is was ok for a day. Also, they provide a guide book to temple etiquette/schedules -just READ IT, do not go to morning service wearing yukata and do not arrive late. The monks are kind enough to let it go, but it is very disrespectful. The food is great, even though we are not vegetarians, we loved shojing ryori! And our favourite part was the morning service and the goma/fire ritual, do not miss it.

The experience is unique- from the evening meditation to the fire ceremony, the morning prayers and the vegetarian provate dining. Be prepared to be cold, especially in winter. But that’s part of the experience.
