DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Station

Stayed during a cold wave. With snow falling outside, we enjoyed a relaxing staycation in the lounge. Right after check-in, we headed to the lounge and spent time chatting over coffee and cookies. During cocktail time from 5 PM, we enjoyed various drinks and were very satisfied. The snacks were substantial enough that many might find them sufficient as dinner. In the morning, we used the breakfast buffet on the first floor as part of our breakfast-included plan. The selection of Japanese dishes was excellent, including freshly made omelets prepared right in front of us—very filling! Afterward, we visited the lounge again to find another breakfast buffet there! Despite being full, we couldn’t resist trying some unique menu items exclusive to this area.We fully utilized our time at the Hotel and had an incredibly satisfying staycation experience. If there’s one thing I’d suggest for improvement, it would be adding cakes or similar treats during tea time—it would make things perfect! Even now though, it’s already a great place to relax.The Room was comfortable as well; I’d love to stay here again!

Conveniently located within walking distance of Kyoto Station, with a convenience store nearby. It was also nice that the bathroom and toilet were separate. When we ran out of toilet paper, we called housekeeping but couldn’t get through, and when we went to the front desk in person, we were surprised to be handed the roll without even a paper bag. Breakfast was delicious, with plenty of Kyoto-style options.
