This is more of a practical value stay than a standout hotel experience. The location is excellent—close to plenty of attractions and conveniences. The tatami room was spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room for luggage and a well-thought-out layout. However, I’d strongly recommend the hotel consider a no-kids policy for the onsen. During my last visit, the experience was unfortunately disrupted by a father and his two young sons shouting and splashing around, treating the bath more like a pool. I had just settled in but ended up leaving immediately, which was disappointing and completely broke the otherwise relaxing atmosphere.

Location was perfect. There are 2 Double Trees in Kyoto. The one near the train station is convenient but far from the sites. This Double Tree is a 10-min cab ride from train station but walkable to the sites of old Kyoto.

The location is great. The hotel is maintained well. Most of staff are friendly. However, I was struggling the traffic noise every night as my room was at the lower floor and facing the busy road. I asked for a quiet room at the counter specifically. It was very disappointing that the staff still assigned the room with the poorest location to us. I doubted whether it was because I booked the stay through expedia as the third agent. Anyway, I hope at least ear plugs are provided, or staff could be more responsive to customers request.

The room is really dark. I had to use a compact mirror by the window to put makeup on. Even the make up mirror was dim. Weird. There is only a hand held shower. Disappointing not to have an overhead shower like the other Hilton’s. The restaurant staff is over the top nice and attentive but I wish they served “real” coffee. Vending machines don’t cut it for me and their drip coffee was gross. The guy who makes the fried eggs was great too.
