DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Station to Open in March 2024®️

In front of the hotel

DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Station , which opened in March 2024, is conveniently located about a 5-minute walk from the Hachijo Exit of JR Kyoto Station.

This 266-room hotel is a rebranded version of the Daiwa Roynet Hotel Kyoto Grande, and features a design that blends Kyoto tradition with modernity. It has a restaurant, cafe, fitness center, and an executive lounge on the top 9th floor.

As of 2025, there are only two DoubleTree hotels in Japan with executive lounges: one at Kyoto Station and one at Osaka Castle.

This time, I booked a queen guest room through HPCJ for 13,452 yen and stayed there.


1. Access from the station

  • From JR Kyoto Station, exit the Hachijo exit, turn left and cross the traffic lights. 
  • There is no parking lot, but you can get a discount ticket for the Times Parking Lot next door at the front desk for 1,000 yen/24 hours after parking.

⭐️

The DoubleTree has an executive lounge and a wide variety of breakfast options. Parking is available for 1,000 yen, but due to construction nearby, there were no spaces available until after 5pm, which was a challenge.

😄 A wide variety of breakfast options and an executive lounge 😄 The restaurant on the first floor offers great deals during happy hour 😄 Bathroom with a washing area

😢 I'd be happy if it was a one-piece dress.
