Recensioni su Hotel Yuraku Kyo-Yasaka

My husband and I had a wonderful time there. We cannot wait to go back. First of all, the pictures on their website don’t do justice. The room was MUCH bigger and better in person. Semi-open bath tub was great. Food was excellent (only breakfast included in our plan). Beds were very comfortable after sleeping on futon on the floor in another hotel in Kyoto. One advice to the management- the taxi drivers are not familiar with this hotel Yuraku location, most likely because it’s very new. Please market the hotel to the taxi companies. Every time I rode a taxi (excerpt one occasion), I had to navigate the cabs.

We stayed 3 nights at DoubleB room on 3rd floor. Room: Much larger than we thought. Luggage area with dressers, separate toilet with sink by the entry room, huge king size bed and love sofa next to the bed. Bathroom is very luxurious and tons of amenities (face mask, facial toner, hair band, cotton but NO shower cap-beware). Separate large tub with natural stone was deep and large enough for 2 ppl, separate handheld shower and rain shower with treetop views from win and large. almost feel like outdoor bath. Room was unexpectedly nice and large. Breakfast: Amazing kaiseki breakfast and this was unexpected with all fresh cooked rice, fish, eggs, and nabe. Lounge area: Free coffee/teas throughout the day and free wine/whiskey from 5-7pm. Very good tea selections (Hojicha, Green tea, Camomille tea, Orange tea, Earl Grey) and several kind of juice available, which was unexpected too. Staff: Check in was at the lounge individually while you are sitting in the lounge area. Hotel lady gave us wet towels and welcome tea and sweets, very nice touch. Staff was very personable and kind, very personable. Location: Steps to Kodaiji and it's around the corner of Nene road which leads to Kiyomizu. Steps to Yasaka Jinjya and Shijo, amazing location. I got the great rates (I reserved 3 months before hotel opened in 12/2022) : I will be afraid rates will go much higher when I return. This hotel should be ranked top #1 in the area soon. This location is amazing for people who is coming with car (has parking), or people who'd enjoy serene walking in the mountain side of Kyoto. It'll takes about 13 min to Shijo/Gion area where buses and subway station are located. It contains some hills so I would not recommended for people who is not good with walking. We loved this hotel and walked around this beautiful Gion/Kiyomizu area, hoping to come back soon!
