Very nice stay, very friendly & welcoming staff and the room we had had the view on the garden which is beautiful! The common area is nice for sitting down for a drink with friends!

It wasn't the most pleasant experience considering that the males n females had to share toilets and that some other rooms had private toilets n bath instead. And also the fact that the walls are super thin hence whomever is connected to your room if their loud or they don't like your voice volume than you might get kicked to the curb. It's a very frustrating experience for sure since it tests one's patience n ability to let go. It's training for the customers n monks alike. I met a Japanese friend here whom shared with me how rude the monks and the staff were to one another n I think that shows the quality of this place however we were pretty lucky as there was a male who spoke mandarin n a male who spoke English both quite well in this place n though the mandarin speaker was quite condescending towards the other monks, the English speaker was really nice n patient overall. He helped me out a lot since we couldn't communicate with the others n seemed to be the only customers that spoke English whom booked this place by ourselves, the others around seemed to have a guide n were usually in groups. It's a unique experience n I recommend just staying for one night or going to the other temples. I went for the ajikan meditation at eko in temple n the service n cleanliness was on another level for sure. The food here was also really simple. Also a must see are the tomb area n the walk to kobold daishi temple. As a sensitive person, I felt the overwhelming love n presence and the cleanse of my heart of this amazing soul over there. To me, that was worth it. Remember to clean yourself with the water out front before going in.... and of course to the amazing fateful friendship that occurred for us with the jap-********* couple we met. It was the next fav of mine after the time spent in nara visitor center. That was truly magickal n how I wished we stayed longer there. But all was good cause the way I planned this trip made it so that we would have this fateful encounter to the end of our trip.

十分有趣的體驗 房間十分舒適第一次住寺院的感覺不錯 環境清幽 第一次品嘗日式素菜 食物雖然普通但有着不一樣的味道

Thank you very much! 是我想要的！十分感謝赤松院的一切！参加了早課丶許了願丶還買了（請了）好多三鈷松的葉！ Check in 時又收到五色手绳作為禮物！ 一切都超級開心😄 不要以城市酒店去比較，因爲完全不同的。 房很大，因爲在地下，連接至庭園，好開心呀。 厠所和浴室分開，乾丶濕分開，好。 睡得很安穩。在外面酒店經常睡不好。的確是聖地！ 吃飯的地方很珍貴，有珍貴的擺設和屏風畫！但是可惜似乎有些住客沒注意到這份珍貴。 還有一份意外喜悅，風筒是Panasonic 負離子系列的！吹完頭髮不乾燥❤️ 第一天山下落雨，山上就落雪，雖然很凍，但是很美！ 期望明年天氣回暖時可以再造訪這座神聖的高野山！希望那時可以再訂到赤松院的房間。

Templo ubicado al lado del cementerio de Okunoin, nos alojaron en el templo Shojoshin-in Temple (Pilgrim's Lodging), el personal muy amable y comunicativo , nos dieron un regalo y la posibilidad de participar en el ritual del fuego y los rezos matutinos. Hay baños onsen para utilizar. La comida y desayuno vegetariana buenísima, se ofrece en unas salas de tatami fuera de la habitación. La habitación acogedora.Perfecta.

住宿這設施的客房，人民幣要1千多有點貴

ツアー客などを詰め込み過ぎなのか、設置されているはずの部屋着(作務衣)の数が足らなくなり 私も含めて多くの宿泊客に行き届いていなかった。。。 (当日の宿泊客数は事前に把握できているはずなので赤松院の確信犯であり、事前に準備しておくべき。

トイレ付きで清潔な部屋でした。食事はまさに精進料理であり、豪華でも美味しくもなかったが、宿坊の食事という感覚を味わいました。

Bare and cold with arcane bathrooms No explanation of tradition for foreigners. No interaction with hotel staff or monks. Not the educational experience we were looking for. Better choices available near by
