2025 Kyoto Accommodation Picks: DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Kyoto Station
If you plan to visit Kyoto, I highly recommend the "DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Station" located near Kyoto Station. This hotel officially opened on March 29, 2024, so everything is very new. It is only about a 5-minute walk from the Hachijo Exit of JR Kyoto Station. Whether it is a business trip or sightseeing, the transportation is extremely convenient. There is a convenience store within a one-minute walk!   
Hotel Design and Room Experience
DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Station has a total of 266 rooms, located on the 2nd to 9th floors. The design concept combines Kyoto's traditional craftsmanship with modern aesthetics. The guest room interiors feature traditional Kyoto elements such as Kiyomizu-yaki ceramics, Kitayama cedar wood, and Japanese-style patterned carpets, creating a warm and local atmosphere. It is particularly worth mentioning that the hotel provides Tatami Executive Suites, allowing guests to experience traditional Japanese style in modern facilities.  
Executive Lounge Exclusive Enjoyment
Since we have Hilton Gold Card, the front desk upgraded us to the executive floor (7th to 9th floors) or suite, and we also have exclusive access to the executive lounge on the 9th floor. This is the first executive lounge established by the Hilton Garden Inn in Japan. The interior decoration incorporates traditional Kyoto crafts such as bonsai and kumiko art to create a quiet and elegant space. Here, guests can enjoy breakfast, all-day refreshments, and evening cocktail hour while enjoying beautiful views of downtown Kyoto and even watching the Shinkansen trains pass by in the distance. There is construction going on next door so there will be noise in the morning!    
Dining facilities
The hotel has an all-day dining restaurant "Harvest Kitchen", which offers a variety of dishes that incorporate local ingredients, such as Oyakodon made with Tanba local chicken, and a limited-edition teppanyaki set menu. In addition, the cafe and bar "Globe Lounge" serves a variety of drinks, including Kyoto craft beer, Japanese sake, and liqueurs from all over the world. It also offers light meals such as the signature double burger and the limited edition "Bonzo Tiramisu", which is very delicious.
Amenities and Services
In addition to comfortable accommodation and rich dining options, the hotel also has a 24-hour fitness center, meeting rooms, and self-service laundry facilities to meet the diverse needs of business and leisure travelers. In addition, the hotel provides paid parking for self-driving travelers, and we would like to tell you that the hair dryer in the room is a Dyson, so there is no need to worry about insufficient air volume.
Conclusion
Overall, DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Station provides a comfortable and Kyoto-style accommodation experience with its convenient location, design that blends tradition and modernity, distinguished executive lounge services, and diverse dining options. Whether it is your first visit to Kyoto or a return visit, this hotel will be an ideal choice for accommodation!
