Wonderful

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.
Able to getvthe room nice and cool for my hot blooded husband. Only downside this hotel was having a toom on the second floor is just about street level, make sure you keep curtains closed.
The highlight of our trip was our stay here, close proximoty to many sites such as Kiyomizu-dera temple & Gion district. Super family friendly, staff was very kind and welcoming.
I would recommend this hotel to anyone who needs a safe and ,clean environment .The staff is very attentive .The rooms are very clean .The bathroom has a nice tub and also a shower..There is also have separate female and male spa area..Whenever I return to Japan this place will always be our first choice.
Traditional Japanese room was very cute, beds very comfortable.
The gym is amazing!! It was the highlight of this hotel for me as well as the staffs willingness to help us with any issues. They helped with Yamato transport as well.
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.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
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.
Good value for the price. The lobby photos look more elegant online than in reality, since luggage storage near the entrance makes it feel a bit messy. It’s a bit inconvenient going down from street level to the lobby and then back through to the elevators, the room was a good size (though only twin beds were available when we booked). The gym and onsen were a nice perk, I didn’t try the food, the location is convenient—on a main street near the touristy geisha area, within walking distance to sights and close to a train station.
The staff was the best part. The storage area was limited for 2 people. And the bed area small. However the shower and toilet part of the room was great.
