Extremely satisfied with our stay.
Room was clean and spacious, perfect for 3 pax. Water pressure was strong too. Hotel is within walking distance to Kyoto Station (5-7mins).
The hotel also very kindly provided free bfast at the exec lounge for our room tier. Variety is the same throughout but hey, no complaints considering how it’s complimentary.

The quality & the service does not represent the Hilton brand. Location was not so close with station & you'll need to walk ~10 mins to/ from the station, which is hard especially if you have a lot of luggage. Staff was not welcoming and not helpful, even after check out they refuse to give me a bottle of water. It did not represent the friendly city of Kyoto that I love. The lobby was not nice and felt very cramped for a 5 star hotel, it felt like a 3 star hotel which was disappointing considering how much I paid for my stay.
Response from Property: Mr./Mrs. Eva Siahaan Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay with us. I sincerely regret that your experience did not meet the high standards that Hilton represents.We understand that the location and accessibility of a hotel can significantly impact the convenience of travel, and I apologize if the distance from the station was challenging, especially with luggage. Additionally, I deeply regret that you did not find our staff welcoming or helpful. Providing warm, attentive service is a fundamental priority for us, and I sincerely apologize that this was not reflected during your visit.Regarding the request for bottled water after checkout, I am sorry that we were unable to accommodate your request. Your feedback is invaluable, and we will review our service policies to ensure they align better with guest expectations. Kyoto is a city known for its hospitality and warmth, and I truly regret that your stay did not reflect that experience.Furthermore, I understand that the lobby space and overall atmosphere did not meet your expectations for a five-star property. We appreciate your observations and will take them into account as we continually seek to improve our guest experience.Your concerns have been shared with our team for careful review, and we greatly appreciate the opportunity to learn from your experience. Should you choose to return in the future, we would love the opportunity to provide you with a more comfortable and welcoming stay.

Special thanks to Mina who help us on travel in Japan, she is very nice and patience. We stayed in Kyoto 4 days and Shirakawa-go village one day, she introduced us every single tips and wrote down the railway/bus transport details since the Japan railway/Shinkansen/bus/subway system is a little bit complicated for us. Appreciate her warm help again, hope everything goes well with her.
Response from Property: Thank you so much for your kind words!It is our greatest pleasure to know that you have enjoyed your stay. We all appreciate your kind comments about our staff. This will be shared amongst all the management and the staff. We truly appreciate your feedback and will make sure to share your compliments with Mina.

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for three nights and had a pleasant experience. It’s conveniently located about a 7-10 minute walk from Kyoto Station, surrounded by a few other hotels and a 7-11 convenience store.
The room was somewhat compact, but this didn’t bother us since we spent most of our time exploring the city. One highlight of our stay was the gym, which is well-equipped with essential facilities. We also appreciated the laundry services, which were incredibly easy to use; you can even check the availability of machines on your in-room TV screen.
Overall, I would recommend this hotel to newcomers visiting Kyoto. It offers a comfortable stay in a great location.
Response from Property: Thank you for sharing your experience with us!We are delighted to hear that you and your husband had a pleasant stay and found our location convenient for exploring Kyoto. We strive to provide our guests with all the essentials for a comfortable stay.Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back on your next visit to Kyoto!

Breakfast limited variety. Limited fresh fruit and mostly canned fruit rather than fresh fruit totally unhealthy food.
Chef didn’t have clue how the omelet is made it was difficult to make them understand because language barrier.
We were 5 people for two rooms lone room had 3 people and two people for second room. There was extra sofa bed hidden under the bed.
We asked for the sofa bed which they brought and charge us £50 rather than informing us that there is sofa bed in one room. I consider this as a fraudulent practice.
Response from Property: Thank you very much for staying with us at the DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Station.We sincerely apologize for the experience you had during your stay. We are sorry to hear that our service and facilities did not meet your expectation. Rest assured your comments will be definitely shared with in our management team for further improvement to maximize our guest experiences.Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention.

The hotel's location is great - walking distance from Kyoto Station.
Hotel staff is very friendly and helpful to recommend restaurants and things to do.
The room is extremely small - we don't believe it's accurate to its advertised size. The property seems to be renovated from an older building as the room ceilings are low and room structure feels "temporary" especially the bathroom.
For the size, it's very overpriced.
Response from Property: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed our convenient location and found our staff to be friendly and helpful. However, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced regarding the room size and structure. Your comments are valuable to us, and we will certainly take them into consideration as we strive to improve our guest experience.We appreciate your insights and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for a more comfortable stay.

We stayed at four hotels in Japan, and this was my favorite and most satisfying one. Although it’s not very big, it perfectly captures the Kyoto style and has a Zen atmosphere. There’s a supermarket nearby, and it’s easy to get a taxi.
Thank you, DoubleTree, for giving us such a wonderful memory!

The hotel is 7-8 mins on foot from Kyoto Station. Parking is limited but there are another 1 which is 1 min away. Breakfast is fine but lunch and dinner options are a bit limited. The hotel is new and the rooms are clean. In general we are happy with our stay.

Very clean hotel, friendly staff, great service. Location is fantastic, right next to a central railway station, so it’s easy to travel around Kyoto.
The only downside is about laundry room, it is there, however only 2 washing machines are there. For 3 days I was not able to use those. People get in the cue 1 hour (!!!) in beforehand to get the spot which I consider a disaster.
Smoking room is near the entrance outside. Clean and convenient too. Wi-fi fast and easy to use.
Response from Property: Thank you very much for staying at DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Station and for spending your time sharing your experience with other travelers.We are excited to hear that you found many of the services and facilities of the hotel to your satisfaction and we are always available to assist you at any time.We look forward to welcoming you back to our hotel in the not so distant future.
