Excellent hotel and services !!”
Staying at the Kyoto Hotel Okura from 3/17-21, 2019. This hotel really presented itself a A+ quality starting from the doorman, reception, concierge, bell captain, room cleaning, etc. I can only say the performances of the hotel staff all exceeded my expectations...the kind of Japanese elegant services which you don't easily feel nowadays. The hotel rooms is quite spacious and also provide wonderful views of the city or river. Very easy access to lots of nearby commercial districts. Therefore, I highly recommend Kyoto Hotel Okura to anyone interested in enjoying Japanese high-class hospitality !!!

Excellent hotel for not much moneh”
This is a luxury hotel at far-below-luxury prices, smack in the middle of Kyoto, ten seconds from a train station. The only downside is we didn’t know what kind of deal we had gotten, so we only stayed one night.

First Class Service”
Can not say enough good things about this hotel. From the Welcome Centre at Kyoto Station, Shuttle to the hotel, welcoming and attentive Bell staff, reception, concierge and housekeeping, all provided amazing service and made us feel like VIPs. Room views of Kyoto amazing, looking out towards Kyoto Tower. Connected underground to subway and Zest shopping mall which came in handy the day it rained. Will be returning next year!

Exceptional”
Loved the hotel. Great reception, very helpful and friendly. Missed the shuttle and was given clear, detailed instructions on how to catch the bus. Room was beautiful but a little dusty. Would have loved to be shown the sightseeing brochures which were tucked away from the reception. Location was great, near restaurants and train stations, subway and bus

Best hotel to get Taxi. Kyoto is a busy city with travellers, difficult to go around without taxi. I booked hotel for mother 82 yo, solo traveller. Always problem to find the taxi with different hotel. Stay with Okura for more than 50 years.

wonderful view during breakfast buffet”
what astonish me most is the wonderful view at the restaurant during our morning buffet. it happens to snow a little, so the top of most houses are white. so with the wide glass panel, get to see an astonishing view.

Value for money”
It has everything that a five start hotel should have - at a good rate. The only improvement that can be done, is more English speaking staff and some more restaurant options.

Not worthy of the Okura name”
Charged me extra charge for a bed and only supplied a small fold out sofa which they really should state and that’s it’s not in fact a bed. Also toilet facilities didn’t work fully property/ fully. Further the concierge is more concerned about her standing with restaurants about town than the clients needs.

Sweet and warm place to stay”
hotel okura is very near to kamokawa, it takes about 5 minutes to the river. kawaramachi and shijo and sanjo are in its neighborhood, with department stores and good for shopping. the hotel is connected to the subway station kyoto shiyakusho mae and there are restaurants, cafes, and convenient stores outside the subway entrance. the single room is small as other hotels in kyoto but the room is clean and heart-warming. breakfast is good. i would stay here again next time i come to visit kyoto.

My favorite hotel in Japan”
During my trip to Japan I stayed at six different hotels. The Kyoto Hotel Okura was my favorite. Cons: The indoor pool, although very nice, cost 2,100 Yen (approximately $25 US). This could be seen as either a PRO or a CON. It's a CON because for the price I paid for the room, this amenity should be included. It's a PRO because the extra cost reduced the amount of people using it. There was only one other person in the pool when I went. Pros: The one thing that stood out was the service. Most of the hotel staff spoke English (some more than others), and all of them were very courteous. Every morning an English newspaper was delivered to my door (unexpected but appreciated). The room was quite spacious; it was the biggest one out of the six hotels I stayed at. The view from the room was very nice as I was on the 15th floor and got to see the city with no obstructions. The room was clean and seemed very modern. It had a nice flat screen tv; most of the channels were in Japanese, I think there was only one English channel. It had wired internet which was free and fast. An ethernet cable was provided in the desk drawer, which was good because I didn't think to bring one. The location of the hotel was excellent, right next to a bus stop and within very close walking distance to three shopping arcades which probably had over 100 different shops. All in all I would highly recommend this hotel. It's a little on the pricier side but well worth it in my opinion.

Best hotel in Kyoto”
I stayed in Kyoto Hotel Okura 3 nights. Location was excellent. Close to everything. Walking distance to best spots in Kyoto. Rooms sizes compare to other hotels in Japan or specially in Europe are really big. Rooms have everything you can possibly need during your stay. Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. I stayed in many hotels around the world four and five stars and never seen service like in this hotel. I would rate this hotel full five stars. For the price that i booked this hotel through agoda it was just unbelievable. I will recommend this hotel to everyone.
