B&B in Ito

Our stay in the temple was a really special way to end our trip in Japan. We really appreciated the serenity of the location and the grounds. The interaction with the monks was lovely. This type of stay is not for everyone please have you expectations set to get the most out of this experience. Check in closes at 5pm. This is because dinner (include in half board) is served at 5.30pm. The meal consists of a traditional Japanese Buddhist meal of about 10 dishes including tofo, rice, soup,...

We really enjoyed the typical dinner in a private room, and the morning breakfast. In-house onsen was a nice additional amenities.

Amazing experience, really got to get into the ceremonies that make up these monks' daily lives. Food was great too, nice baths, room was the nicest I've ever had in Japan, was well worth it

We were so pleased we booked this hotel for the night before our very early flight. Not only was the hotel incredibly convenient for the airport, it provided a bit of luxury before our flight home. We had a large and beautiful room and everything we could have needed, including complimentary toiletries and drinks and a wonderful view for plane nerds! The staff were polite and helpful. Highly recommended.

Staying in Eko-in is an experience not to be missed. Our room was amazing, in the annex building, which felt brand new. The night cemetery tour has been the highlight of our Japan trip and the morning prayer and fire ritual were also great. Food was amazing and plentiful although Japanese breakfast wasn't a hit for us. We bought some pastries from Family Mart to have as backup, which came in handy. Free parking is provided too. The monks were all very welcoming and spoke good English.

The 'staff' (monks) were excellent, from start to finish, and really added to the experience. They were attentive, warm, and friendly. The room had a typical ryokan layout and was comfortable. The (vegan) food was excellently presented, plentiful, and tasted good in the main. My only gripe is the beanbag style pillows which were pretty solid and tough to sleep on. As it was so warm I rolled up the duvet and used that as a pillow instead which meant I slept well. The opportunity to attend morning...

Kind and attentive staff, relaxing baths, delicious vegetarian food and an enlightening meditation session

Good hotel and good staff

Room was beautiful and clean, staff were super friendly and accommodating. Hot springs were so refreshing and the gardens were beautiful. Was so fun to stay in such a traditional place and enjoy the surroundings.

Very professional staff, well-equipped rooms, and excellent breakfast. Nice extra touches, such as being able to check how busy the restaurant is from the room.

Very beautiful place. The rooms are impeccable. The food was superb.

Great location near airport, plenty of things to buy and eat. Delicious breakfast and helpful staff
