Hotel Okura di Kyoto

Excellent service with decent room. There is enough room under the bed for our opened luggage. The breakfast bar is free with some limited choices (it’s free after all) of bread and coffee. The room is very clean and they provide clean towel every morning. Convenient location. About 15 minutes walk to Kiyomizu temple. Less than 30 minutes walk to most of the main transportation stations. If you take the bus, it takes less than 15mins. But the walk along the way is very comfortable and chill especially during winter so we preferred the walk. With this price, there’s no thing to pick on. Would definitely book this hotel again if I go to Kyoto again.

I am absolutely glad we booked this hotel. The main reason we booked this is because there is a washer/dryer in every room. We booked the family room and they are all located at the Anex building. The main building and Anex building are seperated by about 3 blocks. It is just a few seconds walk from the main building to the Anex building. There are no hotel staffs stationed at the Anex building though, so if you need assistance you need to phone them or walk to the main building. There are free coffee machine, tea, ice, hot water and various amenities located at the lobbies of both building. The location of this hotel is a short 5mins walk to the subway station and a 2mins walk to 7-11 convenient storeand 6mins walk to McDonald's and Lawson convenient store. The hotel is beautifully furnished with modern touch to the rustic buidling of Kyoto. The family room that we chose consist of Futons and Modern Beds. There is a humidifier in the room Shower water pressure is very strong Wifi signals are fantastic. TV is at least 46 inch wide Multiple charging ports available even at the headboard section of the beds. Just like other hotels in Japan, you need to stay over a certain number of nights for them to do daily house keeping. However, they do provide changing of towels Daily as long as you stick the magnet label outside your room door before you head off for the day. They just dont make your bed or wash your toilet, etc. The shower, conditioner, etc are of the famous Polar brand. The only thing that i wish to criticise is that the staffs don't speak good English, and i am fully aware that i am in Japan and Japanese don't speak good english, but the hotel staffs being in this industry should at least have a certain degree of basic understanding of English language. I will give an example, I am requesting for new bottle of Shower Soap, they do not understand and had to send a personnel to my room to see what i meant. I am requesting that they change the battery of the safe box in my room due to low battery and they had to transfer the phone call 2 times to finally get what i meant. Just take note that you will need to be patient when speaking to them to get them to understand what your inquiries are. Every staff holds a handheld device for translation purposes though. Besides the slight annoyance due to language barrier, this hotel deserves way more than 3 stars hotel ranking, it felt more like a 4 stars hotel. Absolutely fantastic and deserved praise. I would definitely stay here again in future.

Hotel pertama yang saya tinggal di Kyoto. Lokasinya sangat mudah. ​​Ia sangat dekat dengan Stesen Kyoto. Sangat mudah untuk menaiki bas dan kereta bawah tanah. Terdapat juga banyak restoran yang lazat berhampiran hotel. Betul-betul bertentangan dengan hotel adalah restoran barbeku terkenal Hiro. Bilik hotel agak besar untuk Jepun, dan kemudahan hotel juga sangat baru. Lobinya ringkas dan bergaya. Tiada peralatan mandi pakai buang di dalam bilik. Ia diletakkan di atas meja di lobi dan anda boleh membawanya mengikut permintaan . Terdapat kolam air panas di tingkat atas. Jika anda penat membeli-belah di siang hari, anda boleh pergi berehat. Sarapan pagi Jepun dan Barat, yang lebih sesuai untuk orang Cina. Saya menginap di Kyoto selama empat malam dan memilih dua hotel. Yang kedua ialah hotel mata air panas di seberang hotel ini. Sarapan pagi lebih kaya daripada Hotel Ara, tetapi jika anda menganggap keberkesanan kos, saya cadangkan Hotel Ara.

Very close to the Kyoto station.It is easy to find,mins of walk after exit the west gate to Kyoto station.The staff there are very nice and friendly.They even provide us with a booklet introducing what to visit in Kyoto. What can be done better is the lighting of the room is not bright enough.Also,the pillows are not comfortable enough.Overall speaking, It is still a great place for tourist to stay in Kyoto

Very clean, pleasant. Best part by far: unlimited free use of their two onsen public baths (men’s & women’s alternate daily—look for blue flag for men, red for women) each with shower area, hot bath, warm bath with jets. Upstairs cold bath, sauna with TV, and outdoor bath. Silly me couldn’t open door and thought bath was shut -forgot they slide like a barn door! Wash first in the station-bring nothing in with you, baskets in changing area and lock box do room key before entryway. Baths open 6 am to 11 pm. Great after long day sightseeing. Ryokan provides bathrobes and obi sash, slippers and towels in your room. Quintessential Japanese guest rooms with tatami rice straw mats, futon, and cushion for low table. Hot pot in room for the complimentary green tea and sweet. Staff very friendly and helpful. Massages reservations available after 1 PM to 9. $60/hour. M Checkout 7-10. Cool little neighborhood. 15 minute walk to Kyoto station. Walking distance to UNESCO Toji Temple and several other temples. Easy to catch bus nearby.

Saya melawat untuk tujuan kolam bersama rakan-rakan saya. Kolam renangnya besar dan terpelihara, jadi saya boleh menggunakannya dengan yakin. Kemudahan adalah minimum yang diperlukan, jadi saya fikir anda harus membawa losyen anda sendiri.

Did’t fail to disappoint. 3rd time staying at Kyoto Hachijoguchi in less than a year. Clean, comfortable, good amenities and excellent price point for location. Kyoto main station, subway, bus stop, mall and 24 hr food joint are all within 8 min walking distance.
