Okura Hotels & Resorts Shigaraki hotels

"This was seriously our favourite hotels we have stayed in for such a long time. It exceeded every expectation we had and our children DID NOT want to leave. They cried when we did. We considered day tripping to Osaka just to stay there longer. But alas 3 nights was all we could manage on this trip but we will be back! "

"Beautiful property and lovely, friendly staff. "

"Really good breakfast options - try Japanese or play it safe as you prefer. Big room, comfy beds, relaxing onsen. Good value. What more could you want?"

"Good property. Location is good - would stay again. "

"Excellent location!"

"Right next to the Kyoto Station. Breakfast had many options "

"This was the best hotel we stayed at in Japan and the most affordable. The rooms look brand new and the bathrooms are amazing. Our room on the second floor was also incredibly quiet. I took the advice of others and upgraded to a deluxe corner twin and I am glad I did because it was very spacious. I have learned in Japan that you get what you pay for so if you opt for the cheapest room it might be quite small. It is better to pay more and get more space/nicer accommodations. Keep in mind though that if you are on lower floors there is a privacy film on the windows. The concierge (S. Horio) was very helpful during our stay and helped us plan everything from sightseeing to calling a taxi that could fit all our luggage. The breakfast area was very nice with high tables that we prefer. This hotel is also extremely well located with lots of restaurants and shopping nearby. Also I had no problem using Expedia on this trip — I did so because most hotel websites were difficult to navigate but Expedia made it quite easy."

"The hotel is beautiful. Our room was spacious with a large bathroom. The hotel is in a perfect location being only a 15-minute walk from the train station, 50m from the amazing seafood markets and 5 minutes to the gardens. "

"This was one of my favorite hotels during my stay. Very convenient, clean. Staff was very helpful and welcoming. Room a bit on the smaller side but we worked with it. Breakfast was very different and full of choices. Station literally 2 min walk. Overall a nice hotel to stay while in Kyoto."
