Ctrip's service is really good. I called to ask how to get there. The lady responded to me within two hours. The reply was very accurate! There are also weather and check-in reminder text messages before check-in. Compared with the same period last year, when I booked a hotel on the IHG official website, I had to write emails to the hotel myself for all questions. There was absolutely no service at all. After getting off the Koyasan Cable Car at the Koyasan Cable Car, take bus No. 21 and get off at the 8th stop, which is less than 50 meters away. Various temples here are on both sides of the main street, and transportation is very convenient. Even walking to all attractions is not impossible. The vegetarian meal is relatively simple but quite grand. You can experience it in morning classes. It's definitely a different experience. We brought our seven year old and everything was very friendly. You can soak in the hot spring in the hotel at night before sleeping. There is a 9 o'clock curfew! Go to bed early and get up early. The old monk was particularly kind and sang sutras like a baritone. He used a translator on his mobile phone to explain what he said in Japanese and what he said on his mobile phone was in English. Modern technology brings us closer to Buddha.

There are many temples in Koyasan, and Panzhao Temple has the same name as my gymnasium, so I chose it. Although I belong to the Fengshan school, it is still a great experience. From the furnishings in the house to the refined cuisine, and then to the morning class, it is a great experience. Although I encountered bad weather, landslides, and was stranded on the mountain, I decided to go down the mountain to the nearest The train station, (although it is not open to traffic) spent more than 4,000 yen to carpool with the Japanese guy back to Osaka, but the whole Koyasan trip, including the experience at Panshoin, is still great, and I will go again next time! I still haven't covered a pile of royal seals😙

The room is not bad compared to others! Maybe because of the epidemic, the hotel looked like no one had been there for a long time except for the accommodation.

It was a visit to Koyasan for two families. One family came from Tokyo on the day of the event, and one of them was in a train accident and was unable to move until the afternoon. It was after 9:00 pm when we arrived. I couldn't eat, but I was allowed to use the bath even though it was out of time. I was really grateful. I thought that the next morning's service would be to experience Zen meditation, but unfortunately it was only a visit and a guide to the main hall. The corridors at night are too dark, so I wanted only the passages to be brightened. I would like to ask for a fan in each room.

Facilities: Older Shukubo Hygiene: The room has a musty smell due to the ventilation, the sanitary conditions are average, and the bathing is public Environment: The main road of Koyasan is at the entrance. Koyasan is not big, so you can go shopping all in one day Service: OK, let us check in early

An experience of accommodation in a traditional Buddhist temple, and less hotel than the fudo-in where we also stayed, more authentic perhaps. The room is renovated, with a sink. Shared bathroom, single-sex, with a hot water bath. No English translation in this temple but participation in prayer is more authentic. You are seated directly around the hotel.
