"Lovely stay. Great location. Very clean and quiet. The staff is wonderful. The only issue I would mention is their restaurant has a very limited menu and it’s mostly Italian Pasta. They should look into offering a better variety for health conscious customers."

"Our family stayed at Oakwood Hotel Oike Kyoto and it was lovely! The rooms were clean and comfortable, the staff were helpful and accommodating, overall I would highly recommend anyone coming to Kyoto to stay here! :) I also had a little incident with the hair dryer and I told the staff when I was checking out. I told them to charge it to the room but they were not concerned about that, they asked me if I had burned myself. They were so thoughtful to this clumsy tourist!"
