Oakwood Hotel Oike Kyoto

8/10 Good
"Staff helpful and luggage transfer service from Osaka to this hotel in Kyoto arrived same day and Kyoto- Tokyo Disney the next day . Hotel clean and tidy and room was the biggest Iv had in Japan definitely suitable for two adults. Shower was very powerful and room cleaned daily . Beds soft and tv had Netflix. Buffet breakfast was okay and would probably skip if your given the option it’s basically just eggs and bacon, miso soup and some pastries/ coffee/ tea . Better food to be had away from the hotel . Very far from stations and convenience stores about 10-20 minute walks and as a female solo traveller, Kyoto is quite dark when walking of a night so be aware . Close to nishiki market about 10-15 minute walk and 25 minute walk across the river to gion area. Two closest stations were Kyoto Shiyakusho-mae Station for the Tozai line and Karasuma Oike Station for the karasuma line (direct to Kyoto station for Shinkansen) both stations are 15 minute walks. Overall hotel was good for price and had everything you needed but just a little bit out of the way for transportation."
