Kyoto Higashi Honganji Temple Hotels

"The perfect hotel for Kyoto. Amazing breakfast and coffee and room rooms and location and super clean. Would absolutely stay there again."

"I've stayed at many Smile hotels in the past. This one has much smaller rooms! Other than great, it has a GREAT staff, very friendly and helpful! It's near the Kyoto Station. It's very easy to find, as it is in the direction where the Kyoto Tower is. When you get out of Kyoto Station's main/central entrance FACING the Kyoto Tower, with the station behind you, walk straight up for 4-5 minutes on the left side of the street/boulevard. You should be passing the huge temple on your left hand, and you should be on the same side of the street as the temple is. The hotel is literally right after the metro exit, like 5 steps after the metro exit of the Gojo stop. You can take the metro back and forth between the hotel and Kyoto Station. It's just ONE stop! Get off the Gojo stop and remember to take the correct exit to end up next to the hotel! Say "Hi!" to the staff member and mention "Anime Power!" to the staff members. They will know what it means :-) Thanks, Smile Hotel!"

"clean room, nice staff. however the concierge didn't speak english well. convenient as it is a block from the train station and was the hub of all transportation. the shopping and food area in kyoto station was very convenient."

"This hotel was not only convenient but it was a truly world class stay from professionalism, charm and formal yet quite comfortable. The breakfast was top notch and the staff were such lovely people! Book here because the price is incredible for the service!"

"Everything was perfect. The staff there were very nice and helpful"

"The best value for Kyoto station hotels. Property closing Jan 2027. Great hotel for Kyoto access by train, bus or subway."

"It is a very good location to explore Kyoto"

"Ok so let me start, the location of this hotel is accent and I don’t think it can be beat, the breakfast was top notch and actually the best hotel breakfast we had on our trip. There’s really nothing bad can say about this hotel, staff was very friendly and tried to help with any question I had.. so pretty much 10/10"

"Stayed at the Blossom for five nights. Great location. Hotel was comfortable and clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. Especially enjoyed the amenities (onsen, laundry facilities, and coffee/tea available in the basement lounge) "
