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.

Double Tree by Hilton Kyoto Higashiyama was excellent choice, we felt welcome from the moment we walked into the lobby. Very well air conditioned property, and our room was spacious. We stayed only two nights this time, definitely will come back next trip for a longer stay!

Wonderful hotel in heart of Kyoto. The staff were incredibly nice and accomodating. The rooms, while modest (our king room was small, and faced a wall just feet away across a narrow alley; request a front facing room to at least get a street view) was very well appointed and comfortable. The Japanese cultural elements-- floor mats, shower room, onsen bath on main floor-- were great touches.

The overall hotel stay was wonderful, and the front desk staff was incredible helpful with suggestions. They also offer Yamato luggage service from the front desk but wished I’ve known earlier when I checked in, so I could’ve timed my delivery. Hotel condition was great, and location was great! However, during our stay, we didn’t receive room cleaning on time during any of the day. It was a bit inconvenient especially when we came back to our dirty room to relax a bit and not knowing when the maid would come knocking for cleaning. It was minor, but it was one of the little things. Bar service was slow but breakfast service was amazing.
