We really liked the guest house hachi hachi. The host is extremely nice and gave us great information about the temples and hiking tours. The rooms are large and the mattresses are comfortable. Everything in the house is very well maintained and clean. The bus stop is only 100 meters from the guest house. It is easy to explore Koyasan on foot from the guest house. It is only about 5 minutes to the Famili Mart.

Everyone was very friendly here and welcoming. The temple was easy to find and short was short walk from Okunoin cemetery. Food prepared with care and lovely to try traditional meals. Very quiet and peaceful stay. It was an honour to participate in the ceremonies, the fire ceremony felt very special. The rooms were cold initially but the heater worked well and we were comfortable throughout our stay. Thank you very much for an exceptional experience.

We loved everything. We stayed 4 nights and had an amazing time. Our room was big and comfy, dinners and breakfast were outstanding. Our hosts were the most incredible couple we met. Super friendly and helpfull. Place is located in a small mountain village, away from big city, close to Koyasan. Perfect spot to get away from loud cities. Also recommend Himalaya caffe.

    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.
