Hotel Muso

So many things to praise here: (1) the exceptional service by the English speaking staff; they were courteous but very accessible and super helpful; (2) cleanliness and general state of the facilities; (3) constant supply of bottled water and ice tea; (4) great location within walking distance to Gion and Nishiki Market and the main shopping drag.

Nothing!

A great place in a good location. Staff were polite and helpful.

Best location Best rooms Best service

I’ve stayed at many extraordinary hotels in Japan and experienced some truly wonderful hospitality, but Hotel Muso somehow managed to surpass them all. The location is fantastic, the design and planning of the hotel are thoughtful in every detail, and it feels like a true boutique hotel in the best possible sense. The level of comfort is exceptional — honestly, I have yet to stay at a five-star hotel that feels this comfortable. Breakfast being served in the room every morning was one of my favorite parts of the stay. Everything was prepared with such care and attention that it genuinely made us start the day happy. A very special thank you to Ryota-san. With his kindness, warm smile, wonderful recommendations and constant help, exploring Kyoto felt incredibly easy and effortless. We are also very grateful for the care and precision he showed in arranging the delivery of our luggage to our next hotel. There is no question where I will stay on every future trip to Kyoto: Hotel Muso. We will always remember you with great affection. Thank you for making our stay so special.
