Very nice Buddhist hotel
This hotel has a Buddhist theme. The rooms are Japanese style, clean & very comfortable Staff are very friendly. The only downside was I didn't think the breakfast was quite worth the price but it's good to do once. Finally it seems remote but it really isn't a number of great local places in under 10 mins walk and lots in 20 Recommended

Really special spot. The gentleman at the front desk opened up the zazen room for me to participate in a live program the evening I arrived. Tons of Buddhist literature and instructions if you are interested in that! Super cozy room, comfy beds and sleep attire. They give you the cutest slippers to take home and offer you a bag of silica to use to soak with in the bath. Truly a unique and special place. So grateful to have stayed there. I love the traditional tatami mat with all the added comforts (warm toilets).

Lovely Zazen meditation offered free for the hotel residents by monks in the temple nearby. Learnt how to do Zazen properly. Mind refreshed after days of sightseeing and touristic excitement. Rooms are spacious (compared to most city hotels), clean and reasonable price.

Beautiful hotel, and pleasantly smelled like incense; enjoyed attending morning services at nearby Aizen-do Shomanin temple with the staff and the shojin ryori breakfast they served (okayu rice porridge, tofu, miso soup with sweet potatoes, and various tsukemono pickles to choose from)

Beautiful hotel, super comfortable, with excellent breakfast. Location is perfect -- a 20 min walk from the chaos of Dotonburi, near Sinsekai, but an oasis of calm. Highly recommended.

The hotel was really nice, but it was in the middle of what seemed like a residential area. The closest convenience was at least a 5 min walk. The train stations were at least 7 min away. Other than that, the hotel room was very spacious and the staff and amenities were excellent.

Clean, neat, and quiet place. I also took part in the morning ceremony and meal and it was very interesting. Only me and another Japanese person went. Since I speak both English and Chinese, the tour guide from the hotel translated the service for me in Chinese. The meal was pretty good for a temple fare.
