Hotels near Horikoshi Shaku-Kannon Temple, Katsuragi

I used it on a day trip, but it is a very conscientious and good facility that uses several hot water sources, which also has accommodation facilities. The management changed and was reopened. There are several source baths, so you can enjoy different spring quality hot water. Since we use an old sake brewery, it is a quaint building. The large communal bath is a little small, but it's fun because you can enjoy several spring-quality hot water. There are sauna, bedrock baths, in-house clothes, towels and bath towels, and １０００ yen on weekdays is a great deal. There are restaurants, souvenir corners, reclining, body care, footbaths, etc., so you can enjoy it slowly. The accommodation has an open-air bath in the room, so I'm glad that the price is reasonable. I think it would be nice if the restaurant had a little larger space for day trip users. But it's a very good hot bath facility.

We stayed for one night. The location really is magic, our room was comfortable and it was nice to attend the early morning ceremony before breakfast. The time for dinner was really early and strict (17:45!) but it's recommended to eat in because everything around there closes early. Even if the curfew was at 21, the staff sent as away from the common spaces where we were quietly enjoying the night view at 20:20, while they let a loud group in the entrance disturb everyone until 21:30, so I was a bit upset for this. I enjoyed the onsen but it was very small, I was lucky it wasn't crowded because no more than 4 people can fit in. I personally liked the vegan dinner and breakfast, beautifully presented, but it's not for every stomach and nobody tells you what you are eating (they only told us ”this is rice, tea and watermelon”, we could guess ourselves lol). In the complex, the experience was good and I recommend it, but it's a bit too expensive for what they offer.

Sufang is the most anticipated part of the formation of Koyasan. The so-called Sufang is actually living in a temple to experience the practice. There are more than 100 temples in Koyasan, and dozens of them are open to tourists. It is different from the small Japanese-style houses in ordinary hotels. In addition to being located in the mountains, there are also practice experiences such as eating fast, morning classes, and copying scriptures. In the morning class starting at 6:00, the sky was still dark. In December, Koyasan was already very cold. When I saw the girls next to me, they were very cold. The monk's chanting calmed the mood. Around the lobby of the morning class, this temple is dedicated to the spiritual position of the people. Compared with the mysterious sense of religious rituals in Japan, and Japan with frequent natural disasters, religion seems more secular to ordinary people. It is noticed that when monks recite scriptures, the instruments used to make sounds are used quite frequently. This is probably why there is music such as Buddhist electronic sounds in Japan. Zhaifan is quite exquisite. The combination of ingredients also takes a lot of effort. The monks do not eat meat and rely on soy products to supplement protein. The tofu made by Koyasan has also become a local famous thing. After breakfast, dinner is not wasted. There is a public bathroom that can be used for soup, there is a public smoking area on the first floor, and a wine list is optional. Unlike the imagination before the visit, the monk who received our English communication was ok, warm and gentle. Although Sufang's experience was more secular than expected, living in the headquarters held a good memory of the trip to Koyasan.

It was a twin room, but it was good that the desk was not facing the wall. １ There was a person-clothing sofa, a square table and a seat, and ２ I was impressed that people could sit and eat and drink facing each other. The bath is also a unit bath, but the bathtub is large and I can stretch my legs and soak it, so I was able to relax. Breakfast was also delicious with many side dishes and I was full. The only thing that wasn't good was my room clothes. It was hard and rugged, and it didn't feel good and I couldn't sleep, so I couldn't stand it and took off and went to bed. It's common to route-in, but ... it's hard for a nightwear. The sound of the train is a little noisy because it is behind the station, but it is a range that can be tolerated.

This is the most cost-effective hotel I have stayed in Japan. Our family of five booked a room for five people, but it turned out to be two connected rooms, which is very suitable for family travel. The hotel is right next to Kumatori Station, which is very suitable for passengers who will fly to Kansai Airport the next day. It takes 15 minutes to get to the airport by subway. The hotel has artificial carbonated hot springs for free. You can drink all kinds of wine and drinks for free in the lobby from 6 to 8 pm. The service is also very good. The poster at the door shows that it has been the hotel with the highest customer satisfaction for nine consecutive years. The service is the best. I highly recommend it.

After booking a room with a bathroom, a monk took us to a semi-underground room. It was so cold. He showed us the shower and bathroom in the corridor. We told him that we paid more to book a room with a bathroom, and he took us to find an old monk. Unless we were mistaken, none of their rooms had a bathroom. I obviously spent hundreds more just to have a bathroom in the room, and it was clearly written on the order. He asked me to contact Ctrip at his expense, and he also contacted the agent. It took about an hour and a half to figure this out. He took us back to the original room and opened the locked door (at first we asked him what the small door was, and he said it was a maintenance room). There was a dirty toilet and a sink that couldn't be smaller. Anyway, there are no hotels on Mount Koya. If you want to stay, it’s a shukubo in the temple. They are expensive and have poor conditions, so think twice.

Hotel is new and modern. Stayed a night after a late night flight at Kansai airport. 2 stations away from airport and hotel is directly outside Izumisano station. There’s 7-11, drugstore and restaurants around. Very convenience.

Location is convenience, 7 mins walking from metro and 15 - 20 minutes to the outlet. We just stayed for a short while as we got a red eyes flight and like to have a place to refresh. The room is comfort and well equipped and the hotel lobby is stylish. Lawson is just next to the hotel and easy to grab a fast breakfast there.

kansai washington hotel was near the train station and it’s about a 17mins train ride to the airport, rinkun town outlets are walkable too and there’s a huge super market opposite called trial where you can get snacks and goodies back before you fly we didn’t manage to use the hotel shuttle airport service and that’s disappointing apparently they only do services in the morning and after 4pm any time between them they don’t have it so that was the downside room was decent and comfy the 3rd bed was a lot smaller than the other 2 beds

I do not often write reviews but this one deserves a comment. It’s quite spacious as for Osaka standard, with good view and all necessary facilities. We could easily access this hotel from train station through link bridge. Lifts are fast, which I appreciate. It does not provide pickup service but they do have morning shuttle to the airport. I booked this for both early flight and a brief shop at outlets nearby, where food is also a variety. Will come back next time when fly to Kansai airport.
