Hotel in zona Kurama Station, Kyoto

From the moment we arrived at Roku Kyoto, we felt completely taken care of. From the warm greetings we received as we got out of the taxi to the genuine smiles and hospitality given to us at Reception. There is a pride that exudes from everyone at Roku Kyoto, and for good reason. It is an absolutely extraordinary hotel. But it's not just the beautiful accommodations and the incredibly thoughtful design throughout the property. Nor is it just the sumptuous food stunningly presented at every meal. It is the people who work there and represent the true heart and soul of what the Roku Kyoto experience is all about. My wife and I have traveled all around the globe and we have rarely encountered such a level of excellence. The architectural design, the interior design, the facilities and the grounds are all stunning. In fact, the photos from their website do not do it justice. The room we had on the 4th floor was gorgeous and the bed was perhaps the most comfortable bed we have ever encountered (and we travel often!). The tranquility, the views, the attention to detail throughout the hotel are are not just glorious but absolutely inspiring. The gorgeous pool is filled with water from the natural hot springs that abound in that area of Kyoto. It is a sumptuous experience to swim in that very special pool. We only had breakfast at the hotel, but it was the best we encountered in Japan. The food was beautifully prepared , the choices were extensive and stunningly displayed and the service was impeccable. In fact, service is another thing that sets this extraordinary hotel apart. It's not just well done, there is a pride and a joy that emanates from every member of the staff, no matter what their position. It's what gives this place true heart and soul and it's what elevates the experience. We will never forget our stay at Roku Kyoto and cannot wait to return! We would like to especially thank Kayo Naskagawa. Her attention to detail, her inherent ability to go the extra mile for a guest. Her sweetness and ease. Her ability to listen and use that information to heighten the Roku experience for a guest. Kayo, for us, represents everything we love about Roku Kyoto and why we cannot wait to return.

- Cosa? Pulizia Bene servizio

Un tipico hotel giovanile, la sala di studio del secondo piano del ristorante con cucina, bagno e bagno al terzo piano, la posizione geografica è vicina al delta del fiume Yangtze, e è molto conveniente scendere al tempio di Yangtze.

Reservations offered a better direct booking rate including breakfast and airport limo. New place with smart home amenities and gut service. I had to work some, my laptop mouse broke, front desk went to get me a new one in no time while I had lunch. Really appreciate their attention. Quiet, yet lively neighbourhood. Artistic and galleries nearby. Dining reservations were out of this world. 360 degrees of happiness.

Hotel di grande valore. Rimarrei qui di nuovo e di nuovo. Ci sono buone comunicazioni al centro, una bella casa di tè e un buon caffè francese vicino, così come ristoranti. L'hotel è pulito, confortevole, ben attrezzato.Solo un miglioramento immagino sia in grado di aprire completamente la finestra della stanza.

We spent 2 nights in mid-December. Summary: Room was nice/OK but the front desk staff was unhelpful and with minimal English or Japanese language skills. Despite all of the pictures of food/restaurant on the website - there is no longer a restaurant and that area is now storage, just past the check-in desk. They really should update the site to reflect the amenities and options they provide. The room was nice and we enjoyed the outdoor tub during our 2 night stay. Given the nightly price of this hotel, the front desk staff was completely useless! Perhaps the property is under new ownership because when we were there, it appeared to be staffed by a Nepali family/group and the gentleman at the front desk had very limited English skills and was unable or unwilling to help us with the most basic questions. Breakfast options are limited and it was like pulling teeth to find out those options from the front desk. There is no longer a restaurant on-site so any food they provide is from an offsite restaurant. The front desk staff have to take your order in their very limited language skills and then place the oder for the next day. Good luck finding out the options or changing your mind. We tried to change breakfast for our 2nd morning at 11:30 AM, the day before and we were told it was already too late.

Hotel tradizionale. Se prenoti la stanza tatami, noti che non c'è doccia in quel tipo di stanza. È condivisa con un altro ospite, ma il tatuaggio non è consentito. Ho il tatuaggio, è bello che l'hotel mi ha aggiornato alla stanza con letti, tatami e doccia per me. Grazie all'hotel!

Sarò molto sincero, le nostre prime impressioni quando siamo arrivati (da Coach di Kobe) sono che era sottomarino, timido e non ispirante, né quanto ci aspettavamo, e in un'area residenziale piuttosto insignificante. Kyoto era dopotutto la capitale del Giappone (dove l'imperatore viveva da 794 a 1868) e si è salvato il peggio degli attentati durante la seconda guerra mondiale, a causa della sua storia, grandezza e splendore. All'interno c'era una storia molto diversa – moderna, aria, atrio massiccio dominato il centro con camere, su ciascun lato. Le camere erano abbastanza grandi, letti gemelli spinti insieme per formare un letto matrimoniale. Pulizia ben attrezzata e attrezzata, e abbiamo dormito molto bene. La colazione era buona, ma in un’area piuttosto piccola e piena di gente, quindi il Buffet chiese un sacco di manovra tra di loro e il personale, che non poteva sopportare le cose rinfrescanti che erano uscite. Il centro del piano era un salone dove servivano anche bevande e snack. Ci sedevamo lì (4/5) mentre aspettava che arrivassero i nostri 40+ Coach. “Nessuna bevanda, nessun cibo, nessun sedile” - ci erano stati ordinati in modo non ceremoniale. Non è un buon movimento – per allontanarsi 40 Ospiti in un solo movimento. Un boicottaggio improvviso seguito L'hotel è dovuto a Ovest del Palazzo Imperiale, così grande posizione per questo, ma il loro cortese autobus è stato ben usato per le persone che volevano entrare nella città, o prendere autobus per visitare attrazioni turistiche ecc, o ovviamente uno potrebbe prendere a Taxi. Non c'era quasi niente in sua vicinanza, attraverso i supermercati, i ristoranti o i bar. Mangiamo altrove ogni notte, ma IN il Centro della Città proper – vedi sopra. Aveva ristoranti, ma erano troppo costosi per i nostri gusti/bilanci, quindi non potevamo commentarli/revisarli. Ci siamo ripresi a Kyoto (la nostra città giapponese preferita) quasi quattro settimane dopo, ma questa volta siamo rimasti in un altro hotel, proprio nel cuore della città, dove abbiamo trascorso decine di migliaia di yen in una notte nel loro bar.

京都御所のすぐ西側にある、5階建てのホテル。地下駐車場（料金千円）あり。荷物を駐車場から部屋まで運んでもらえたのが嬉しい。泊ったのは４階の部屋。ダブルなのでやや広め。WiFiは速度が速い。エアコンは集中制御で風量のみ調節可。窓側が三角形になっているのは珍しい。二人がけソファあり。加湿清浄機は使いやすいタイプ。バスルームはユニット式、やや古い。カードキーではなく、鍵そのもの。４階に自販機、アイスサーバー、電子レンジあり。コインランドリーはない。夕食・朝食付き　夕食は弁当、朝食は、和か洋のセットメニュー。南禅寺蒸しが京都らしい。味が薄いので醤油を少しかける。茶碗蒸しのように周りに玉子が入り、豆腐の上にあんがかかっている。ご飯のおかわり可能。チェックアウトは午後１時まで、ホテルでゆったりできるのがいい。
