(2) assume can take JR back to Osaka?
(3) does any JR Pass cover transportation between Osaka and Kyoto?
(4) if yes, which JR Pass should we buy?
Appreciate if any additional useful information can be provided. Many thanks.

You can take the train from Osaka airport to Shin Osaka station, and catch the Shinkansen (bullet train) from there. From Kyoto station, simply take a taxi to your Hotel. Kyoto is not a large city, the hotel is actually walking distance from the station (though a long walk), a taxi is easier if you are carrying bags.
You can get tickets for the train and bullet train at the train station in the airport. If you don't speak Japanese, they can understand English, and can help you buy the tickets you will need, as well as give you any more advice you might want.
I don't like to take the highway buses, trains are more convenient.
