We were very happy with our stay at the Hilton Garden Inn Kyoto. The room was extremely clean and comfortable with a huge king bed. We were quite satisfied with the quality and variety of the breakfast and we loved the free hot beverage dispenser in the lobby. It was great to return to a delicious hot chocolate after a day of sightseeing.

Great hotel to stay in Tokyo, we had the king bed room and it was very spacious, beautiful and comfortable, the bed was actually much larger than a standard US king size bed. Staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and made our stay easy. The hotel is well located in downtown with many restaurants, convenience stores, shops and a subway station connecting directly to the Kyoto train station. We took the hotel breakfast option and found the buffet and service excellent and the restaurant very pleasant, travelling with a young kid, it definitely set our day on the right pass
