Iwanogawa Hotellit

”Just know that the futons are only about 10cm deep so not super comfy if used to sleeping on a bed. Room was clean but the carpet on the hallway to the bathroom was really stained. The staff was super kind. Convenient to walk around the little town and the mausoleum.”

”It was truly an amazing experience. At first please note that this is not a traditional hotel, but a active temple which hosts travellers. My room was traditional room with a tatami floor and shared bathroom. Room and bathroom were both clean and nice. The atmosphere in the temple was calm and quiet throughout my whole stay. Food that was served was amazing. It was also interesting to follow the morning service and the fire ritual. ”

”Excelente atención por parte de todos los monjes del templo y el staff.”

”部屋もきれいで、接客もよかった。 ロードバイクを持っていたが、EVのドア操作をフロントの方してくれた”

”レストランの２階にある５部屋続きのワンフロアを１日１組（最大１０名）に提供すると言う少々変則的なホテルです。 オーナーは茶道の師匠で、奥の院に毎日献茶をされているとのことです。オーナーを含め、スタッフの皆様共に気配り、サービスが良いです。 小生は、一人で宿泊しましたが、ツインの部屋に＋和室が、襖で区切ることにより、４室作れるので、５人以上での宿泊に適していると思います。”

”Clean room, helpful staff, great location, delicious dinner and breakfast.”

”Definitely accessible via train and walking, but I recommend taking a taxi from the station just because there’s not a lot of room for pedestrians. As far as the hotel goes, the staff are very kind and accommodating, there are several shops on the bottom floor, you’re able to purchase local goods at the front desk and there is an amazing kimono shop one block away called Aridayagofuku where you can buy very high-quality textiles, local jewelry, and seasonal kimono. It’s a great place to stay...

”Great location in the center of town so very convenient to visit the temples and cemetery.”

”金峰山寺から高野山への旅に利用しました。 よかったです。”

”We enjoyed this authentically Japanese hotel. The front desk were very efficient and explained everything to us. The clerk was able to speak English and we were pleasantly surprised with this countryside hotel. We took off our shoes and left them in a locker in the lobby. We were given slippers to wear throughout the hotel. Due to this no shoe policy, the floors and carpeting were very clean! The room was very small, eventhough, it was a “comfort double” room. Suitcases would have been...

”The experience of staying there was deeply meaningful. I am so grateful to have been given the opportunity to learn about Esoteric Buddhism from the monks there.”

”受付のスタッフのおばちゃんの愛想が良かった”

”Bella struttura comoda vicino al centro. Si dorme in una struttura accanto al tempio. Il tempio chiude le porte alle 17.00. Bisogna arrivare prima altrimenti si rimane fuori. Cena alle 17.30 in una grande stanza insiemi agli altri ospiti. La mattina alle 6.30 la preghiera e subito dopo verso le 7.30 la cilazione. Bel posto per rilassarsi. Al check in ci ha assistito una signora gentile che ci ha spiegato tutto e sapeva anche qualche parola in italiano. Buona cena e colazione.”
