Noisy street racing motorcycle sounds most nights and police cars - drunk people yelling
Miscommunication with night staff around checkout and no flexibility by morning staff
Will charge you 2000 yen if you are late to check out
Location is great, bed isn’t very comfortable, very thin mattress. There is a horrible smell from the toilet which caused my partner and I to become ill and having to leave early. After reading more reviews I see this is a common problem. I would not recommend this place for comfort, but would recommend it for location.
We booked this hotel last minute as our previous accommodations were incredibly uncleanly upon arrival. The staff at Hotel Musse were kind and helpful. Our room & the rest of the hotel was clean & beautiful! Lots of amenities as well.
A lovely spacious room, very clean and staff are lovely. It's also a wonderfully convenient location for trains, busses and walking
Laundry services are very good but be aware if you choose wash and dry you'll also have to pay extra for more drying because one lot of drying won't actually fully dry anything. There are only 2 machines on the floor I stayed on so it's hard to get access. It would be nice if they had a little clothes line in the bathrooms so you can hang dresses to dry but they have a lot of amenities such as irons, steamers, trouser presses and ironing boards which is fantastic
A beautiful and modern style hotel! The rooms are spacious and stunningly decorated. The staff were lovely and welcoming. The location is super convenient for catching trains, buses or even walking to local sites.
The location was perfect for us . We loved that we were within a few blocks to the Nishiki market, Takoyakushi-dōri and walking distance to Gion and the train station. You walked out of the building to lots of stores, restaurants and activity but our room backed onto a temple so was very quiet at night . The facility was clean and the reception very helpful. The room had linoleum not carpet easy cleaning. Room size was decent. We had a twin room and would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Clean room. Staff are friendly and helpful. The lounge is cozy and spacious. They provide free snacks at certain times. The hotel location is walkable to two subway stations.
