Book a hotel near Hokanji Temple, Higashiyama Ward

"This property is directly across from the train station so it’s a great location if you are on the go. It is further away from the main Kyoto strip that we spent most of our time. I wish I had known that before booking but otherwise it was a great stay."

"We stayed in the Kabuki room and it was so worth it! The room is so cool and very clean. Comes with a lot of amenities that they replenish each day! The hotel is within a shopping district which is so nice to walk around at night. Staff was friendly and welcoming!"

"Our stay was excellent from start to finish. We booked a Hollywood Double room and were pleasantly surprised by how spacious and immaculately clean it was—especially by Kyoto standards. The room felt modern with a touch of traditional decor, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed for travelers. The location was absolutely ideal: just a short walk to both Nishiki Market and Pontocho Alley, making it incredibly convenient for exploring the city, dining, and shopping. Breakfast each morning was a highlight of our stay. The buffet offered a delicious and extensive selection of both local Japanese dishes and Western options, with something for every taste. Even the little details stood out—the provided pyjamas were exceptionally comfortable and added a nice touch to the overall experience. We would gladly stay here again and would highly recommend Hotel Musse Kyoto to anyone visiting the city."

"Our stay here exceeded our expectations. Rooms were clean, decent size, but it was the staff and amenities that made this property truely shine. The staff was extremely helpful, we didn’t expect to eat breakfast here but after trying one day, we decided to get breakfast at hotel as much as possible. Having a warm bowl of ramen at end of day was a really nice touch. The onsen was well maintained and amazing after a long day of walking. And the little touch of having free ice cream for after using onsen was especially nice. Has free washers and coin operated dryers which we did utilize. Will definitely book again on our next visit."

"Clean and very well appointed room within walking distance of train station and shopping centre."

"The hotel was very clean and comfortable. The only thing we found was that the room size was too small for our family. The location of the hotel was super convenient."
