Pros: It’s right next to Kyoto station and they held our luggage for us before check-in and after check-out. I liked how breakfast was an individual meal instead of buffet due to COVID-19. The bed was comfortable, the room was classy and wifi worked great. There is some free coffee and bottle of water in the room. They can give you some take away coffee to your room after breakfast. I would stay there again if I were to visit Kyoto.

Pros: So central and the rooms were quiet even though above the railway station 9 restaurants within the complex though very expensive- they did not tell me at check in that there were some offers and discounts for some of the restaurants and I found the vouchers hidden amongst other pamphlets on our last morning

Pros: All was perfect! Best hotel in Kyoto

Pros: New establishment of sophisticated taste. Rate is reasonable during off season. Great location. A walk to kiyomizudera and back was merry. Persimmon served with welcome tea is ridicuously palatable. I bought 6 packs as souvenir.

Pros: We had a spacious room with a very comfortable bed. The Cafe in the lobby served a delicious Green Tea Puff Pastry There is a beautiful view of Kyoto from the Restaurant on the top floor. The breakfast/brunch was amazing.

Pros: Location was excellent, close to making shopping area. Big room for Japanese standard.

Pros: The Hotel is located close to Downtown Kyoto and Pontocho street and we got the top floor room which faced the river and had a beautiful view of the city The staff were very helpful and kind especially the concierge who helped us with taxi bookings and guided us to places to see

Pros: We loved staying here. My only complaint is that it cost additional money to use the pool, if you chose to use the pool, and more importantly, that you had to be 18 years old to use the pool at all. My wife and I were traveling with our 9-year-old daughter, so none of used the pool because our daughter was too young. This was a huge downer, because Kyoto is very hot in August and we would have welcomed being able to cool off in the pool. By contrast, the hotel we stayed at in Tokyo (The Park Hyatt) had no age restrictions on pool usage (or usage fees) and we used the pool twice a day. Other than the disappointment about the pool, the Kyoto Hotel Okura was a total delight and perfectly located and the staff couldn't have been more accommodating, and the free shuttle too and from Kyoto Station was a welcome surprise.

Pros: We spent two periods at the Hotel Okura, a week at the beginning of our Japan trip and then another five nights at the end. For us (my wife and I), it turned out to be the perfect choice of hotel for a number of reasons. We were in two different rooms for our two stays, firstly a room on the seventh floor and then subsequently a room on the eleventh floor. Both rooms were excellent with wonderful views out in the direction of the Kamo River. The location of the hotel is excellent, being near to the Kawaramachi-dori shopping area where there are many excellent stores and restaurants. It is also just a short walk from Pontocho-dori which may seem dull during the day but comes alive at night, when it is wonderful experience just to walk along and enjoy the lights. Again, the hotel is just a 10-15 minute walk to Gion which is totally magical, particularly in the evening and at night. (And, yes, we did see real geisha/maiko both in Gion and on the Pontocho-dori). Finally, I should add that the hotel buffet breakfast (included in the cost of the room for us) was outstanding, being a wide mixture of delicious Japanese, Chinese and Western foods.

Pros: Why?

Pros: Property was very clean, and everything looked new and well kept. Staff was welcoming, polite and really helpful. Great location too! Will come back to hotel when in Kyoto again!

Pros: Lovely staff, very helpful. Hotel seemed oriented towards the business traveller and more for the older Japanese population. That said, it was a very good, very comfortable hotel. Good value!

Pros: Location

Pros: Location

Pros: Excellent hotel in a great location. Would definitely stay here again!

Pros: Location was perfect . Breakfast was delightful. Staff / Personnel were very gracious, very kind, very helpful! Free noodles every night! We had a great time!

Pros: Even though the room was extremely small, it was very well designed and extremely clean. Staff were very friendly! Location was excellent. Kyoto Station is a hub in itself with lots of restaurant choices, shopping etc. and served as a great starting point for the bus, subway and trains!

Pros: The breakfast is good, especially the Tampura Ebbi! The spa is great! The staffs are kind and friendly. To our surprise, guests can get free cup noodle at 9pm every night in the Lobby. Only 5 min walk from the Kyoto JR station and very close to all the city buses and tour bus. Really good!

Pros: Great hotel for the price paid. The room is tiny like pretty much every 3-star hotel in Japan, but the bed was very comfy, it actually had a view and the table was spacious enough for using the laptop while having room for extra stuff. The free cup-noodles from 9pm - 11pm was a nice touch, Absolutely loved their onsen, the "pool" (have no idea what to call it) is quite large. The location is absolutely fantastic, you are literally right next to the station, giving you access to both JR and Subway.

Pros: The room we stayed has just renovated and everything nice and clean. The public bath is great for Japanese people. The location was great! You can see the sign of the hotel name once you have got outside of Kyoto station. Great staff there as well.

Pros: breakfast

Pros: Great location, right across the street from Kyoto Station on the back side. Easy access to all train lines, lots of nearby shopping. There is a small shopping center located next door with underground access to the station for when the weather isn't so great. Just down the road there is an Aeon Mall with lots of stores and a great food court. The station itself is packed with tons of shops and restaurants both above and below. The hotel staff also gave us free samples of sake when checking in, as well as nightly instant udon to take to our rooms and enjoy.

Pros: Location was good, 1 mins walk to JR station. 2 mins walk to shopping mall. Hotel desk staffs is knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommended hotel to stay. Will be back again.
