Hotell i Kyoto

Minus: They woke us up at 7:50 to tell us about a restaurant we asked for breakfast recommendation. The room is too small, with to storage space for a couple, a view of "the city" looks like a slam, lack of a 5-star quality, yet the service was good.

Plus: So much of your experience of Kyoto is where you are staying. I am so glad I changed hotels to stay at the Ritz one night. The service is outstanding, the location is incredible, and I had one of the nicest spa experiences of my whole life. Staying here will be one of my top memories of my lifetime. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Plus: The swimming pool.

Minus: The price to value was very high and the hotel billed me twice accidentally.

Plus: Very nice hotel. Highly recommended from a world traveler.

Plus: Great location! Easy access to bus lines and subways. The bathroom is quite large relative to the room size. Effective use of space. They can store your luggage for you free of charge if you arrive early. I did this and it was a huge lifesaver.

Minus: No minibar, but I never use that stuff anyway.

Plus: It's fine for a three star, but you are paying for five star which it doesn't live up to.

Minus: It's tricky one hostess was very helpful and another one yelled at us for canceling a cab, it was very strange. The beds are so hard, it was terrible. Also they don't have a bag room so the lobby is absolutely filled with bags because of all the tour groups. Also bar extremely overpriced. Overall it is extremely overpriced for what you get. Use that same amount and go stay in one of the traditional hotels in the cute part of town.

Plus: Mycket trevligt hotell. Rekommenderas starkt från en världsresenär

Plus: Rooms were excellent quality amenities

Plus: Rummen var utmärkt kvalitet bekvämligheter

Plus: Favorite hotel we stayed at in Japan. Staff was really nice and helpful. The japenese style room was great, set up so nicely. Did not feel like a hotel, very comfortable. Clean room, bathroom was nice, mini fridge in the room, vending machines and coin laundry in the hallway. Public baths were a fun experience.

Minus: Location is good, lots of shopping near by. Finding the hotel entrance was a little tricky, you need to go down the alley.

Plus: This hotel is part of the JR hotel group the hotel has very helpful staff who speak English well. The location can't be beat. It is central and easy to go any where from this location. Rooms are quiet and well serviced.

Plus: close to kyoto station, clean, helpfull staff can speaking english

Minus: such a expensive room rate but doesn't include breakfast or dinner ?

Plus: Everything!

Minus: Pricy dinner

Plus: Allt!

Minus: Dyrt middag

Plus: Excellent hotel, clean, modern. Concierge was very helpful. Internet was free and reasonably fast. Location is a little away from the main sites to see but relatively close to Kyoto station. Overall, excellent place to stay. Please do not bring your kids here.

Minus: The entire hotel was generally excellent for adults, business travelers, solo travelers, romantic getaways. Exception was that there was one family with possibly the only children in the hotel running/stomping around. Not appropriate. Please don't bring your children, this is not Disneyland, or at least keep your children under better control.

Plus: Rooms nice modern and spacious. Great bathroom and shower. Staff all spoke English and extremely nice and helpful

Minus: Everything

Plus: This is a great hotel for a good price. The room was very spacious. There were a lot of perks like included coffee and adult beverages. There is limited parking in the back that the front desk staff helped us get into (parking is on risers). Staff speaks great English. Huge shower and bathroom. Lots of amenities like laundry and onsite Onsen. I would stay again.

Minus: It was a little bit challenging to turn the air conditioner on (remote in Japanese) but we figured it out no problem.

Plus: Location

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

Minus: Staff not very friendly. Limited English with some staff. Concierge overwhelmed with people. Perhaps 2 at the desk would help. Very strict check out policy. Was not given a copy of my bill because I made the reservation over KAyak.

Plus: Why?

Plus: 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!

Plus: Location

Minus: The air conditioner in our room was broken. They couldn't fix it and offered no compensation for it. The rooms and main hallways were stuffy and filled with smoke.

Plus: 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.

Minus: The pool cost money to use. And you need to be at least 18 to use it. This was a huge disappointment since we were traveling with our daughter, who is 9.

Plus: Great service that can be expected from the Okura brand. Was unexpectedly upgraded to a large room. Good location.

Minus: Nothing.

Plus: We loved almost everything about the Okura! Staff were very attentive and helpful with navigating for non-Japanese speaking guests. Facilities were in great shape. Insure dining had both local and international options. Subway access via basement connection and hotel shuttle to/from train station. So many amazing sites to see from there and tour company picked up at hotel.

Minus: Much of dining, as seems common in Good hotels in Japan, is fixed price. We found two good options, Merry Island(Italian) and a noodle house that I do not remember the name of, in easy walking distance.

Plus: Läge

Plus: Varför?

Plus: location was good.

Minus: Ceanliness was poor. Toilet was leaking on the floor and it was obvious the floor wasn't cleaned daily. We were out all day and upon returning, we saw the bathroom wasn't cleaned. Also, we got a cab to take us to a nearby laundromat and then Kyoto station. We showed them the map the hotel passes out to guests. The taxi driver said he knew how to get there. He took us the opposite direction. After driving for about 8 min, I stopped him and told him he's going the wrong way. Thank goodness for GPS and smartphones. He had one too but couldn't figure how to get us to where we wanted. He ended up taking us back to the hotel and asking us to pay him the $11 on the meter. I told him it wasn't fair since he never took us where we wanted to go. He called the porter who insisted we pay the taxi. Even though I explained the situation, the porter took the taxi's story that I never gave the address. He heard my story and took the taxi's. We told him he picked us up from the hotel too and he still said we should pay. I told him I'm not paying and that I would walk to my destination. He insisted I give my name and room number. That was the worst hotel experience I've ever had. Sad...

Plus: Simple. Clean. Very good access to JR Station. Fast wifi connection.

Plus: very clean and cozy hotel, convenient location

Plus: Hotel location is close to Kyoto train station and the new Aeon Shopping Mall.

Minus: The mattress is as firm as it gets. I had difficulty sleeping on my side or back. The hotel configuration is not suitable if your room is situated far from the elevator. It seems the elevator is at one end of hotel and our room at the opposite end. Hotel is U-shaped and we walked liked 200 meters to the elevators.

Plus: Convenient location to Tokyo station and airport bus right at the entrance to the hotel.

Minus: I wish there could be more hanging hooks for towels/clothes in the bathroom. Having only one is not as functional for two people in the room.

Plus: The location can't be beat! It is right by the JR line and makes it easy for navigating the city and having a base to get back to before going out and exploring more! The staff was extremely nice and attentive and spoke relative good English.

Minus: It was a bit dusty in certain places, also the bed was very hard.

Plus: Enkelt. Rent. Mycket bra tillgång till JR Station. Snabbt wifi-anslutning.

Plus: Mycket rent och mysigt hotell, bra läge
