Hilton Kyoto opened in September 2024, introducing Hilton Hotels & Resorts to the historic city of Kyoto, Japan. Located in the vibrant Kawaramachi Sanjo area, the hotel embodies the “Kyoto SYNAPSE” concept, seamlessly blending traditional culture with modern design to offer guests an immersive experience.
Following the opening of DoubleTree by Hilton at Kyoto Station in March of this year, which provides travelers with convenient access to transportation hubs, Hilton Kyoto expands the brand’s presence by offering a luxurious retreat in the city’s heart. Together, these openings signify Hilton’s commitment to catering to a diverse range of travelers in Kyoto.
The hotel features 313 guest rooms starting from 40 square meters, combining traditional aesthetics with modern comforts for a serene stay. The ninth-floor Executive Lounge, inspired by Kyoto’s traditional townhouses, offers exclusive services for Executive Room and Suite guests, including breakfast and afternoon tea with views of the cityscape and rooftop garden.
Guests can enjoy diverse culinary experiences across four dining venues: an all-day dining restaurant with an international menu, a specialty restaurant serving Mediterranean cuisine made with local Kyoto ingredients, a lobby café and bar inspired by Kyoto textiles, and a rooftop bar on the tenth floor. The rooftop bar provides panoramic views of the Kamo River and the Higashiyama mountains, making it an ideal spot for seasonal events like the Kyoto Gozan Okuribi fire festival.
Conveniently located just a two-minute walk from Kyoto Shiyakusho-mae Station, Hilton Kyoto offers easy access to local attractions. With its harmonious blend of tradition and modernity, the hotel invites guests to create unforgettable memories starting from its grand opening on September 12, 2024.
