The room was a masterpiece of minimalist, warm design, with serene views. Waking up to the sound of birdsong instead of city noise was a true luxury. However, the crown jewel of ROKU KYOTO is undoubtedly the thermal pool. It is simply breathtaking. Floating in the warm, onsen-fed water while surrounded by nature was a deeply rejuvenating experience, both during the sunny day and under the stars at night. What truly elevated our stay was the impeccable service. Every staff member was warm, attentive, and intuitive, anticipating our needs without ever being intrusive. The dining experience at TENJIN was also exceptional, featuring exquisite dishes that celebrated local ingredients. If you are looking for a true escape to recharge your mind, body, and soul, look no further. ROKU KYOTO is an unforgettable experience, and we are already planning our return.

“A Masterpiece of Serenity in Northern Kyoto”

ROKU KYOTO is a masterfully planned retreat. I used this stay as a strategic "break" in the middle of a busy Kyoto trip, and it was the perfect decision.

ROKU KYOTO is a masterfully planned retreat. I used this stay as a strategic "break" in the middle of a busy Kyoto trip, and it was the perfect decision. Located in the quiet Takagamine area, you feel completely removed from the city's crowds, yet you’re still within a 10-minute stroll of the Golden Pavilion (Kinkaku-ji). The Private Onsen Experience I stayed in a ground-floor room featuring a private garden and onsen. The design is striking—the stone tub and the flow of natural hot spring water provide a level of privacy and relaxation that is hard to find in a standard hotel setting. It turns the room into a personal spa. Winter Wellness The wellness facilities here are top-tier. The outdoor thermal pool is open year-round, and experiencing it during the winter was unforgettable. Watching the snow fall while submerged in the warmth of the natural spring water is a core memory of the trip. The fitness center is equally impressive, offering a clean, modern space for a proper workout. A Culinary Deep-Dive at TENJIN The dining at TENJIN was so impressive that after my first meal, I kept returning until I had sampled nearly the entire menu. The chefs are doing incredible work—the flavor profiles and presentation of the "small plates" feel like they belong in a Michelin-starred kitchen. The only thing keeping it from that star is likely the service; while the staff is professional and attentive, it lacks that ultra-proactive, seamless intuition found in the world's top-ranked restaurants. ROKU KYOTO offers a rare combination: the amenities of a massive luxury resort with the quiet, understated elegance of a boutique property. If you’re looking for a place to recharge between sightseeing days, this is the definitive choice.

“Worth a flight to Kyoto from anywhere”

This may be my very favorite hotel of all time. And I only say may to allow for the fact that I may be forgetting something. I can’t imagine, forgetting this.

This may be my very favorite hotel of all time. And I only say may to allow for the fact that I may be forgetting something. I can’t imagine, forgetting this. From the moment we arrived from the train station to the moment we sadly departed, every detail was thought of and accounted for. The staff are helpful and discreet, responding to every request as though we had simply asked them the time. This is the only unobtrusive turndown service I’ve ever experienced. . From calling taxis to arranging a Kintsugi experience, to deftly navigating a request to help retrieve some items left in a Tokyo hotel room, everything was absolutely seamless. . Bed was huge and comfortable, pajamas and robes lush, toilet, separate from the shower and private, and an in-room onsen built for two. . The pool is warm and mineral-fed, the grounds are breathtaking, and walking distance to Kinkakuji and some delicious sushi. . If I were forced to make a note, it would be that the Western items on the à la carte breakfast menu were not my favorite. But the buffet was great. . I would come back to Kyoto just to stay here.

The hotel is beautiful and the staff is outstanding and kind. The rooms are spacious, clean and the beds are so comfortable! The only few complaints I have are #1 location. It is far away from the train station and shopping f area. About a 30 minute taxi ride. The surrounding neighborhood is all residential so you can not venture out once you get to the hotel. #2 the crowded pool full of children. We wanted to enjoy a quiet time at the pool but it is required to make a reservation for the pool for a 1 hour a lot. Many kids yelling and screaming. #3 breakfast. There is a very small section of foods and on the weekend we had to wait 30 minutes to be seated. Other than that it is a beautiful resort.
