Four Points Flex by Sheraton Osaka Shinsaibashi

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the DoubleTree by Hilton near Kyoto Station, and it truly exceeded all my expectations! Among the two DoubleTree hotels in the city, this one’s close proximity to the station makes it incredibly appealing, and its modern appearance suggests it's one of the newer options available. After a steaming hot walk from Kyoto Station—which is only about ten minutes if you know the way—I immediately fell in love with this hotel at first sight! The ambiance and aesthetic were so inviting that I impulsively decided to cancel my hotel booking in Osaka and extend my stay here—a little rebellious decision, but one I do not regret! However, navigating from Kyoto Station to the hotel can be a bit of a challenge, much like maneuvering through a maze. It would be fantastic if the hotel could provide a clear guide for guests after booking so that everyone can easily find their way. The interior design of the hotel beautifully blends Japanese elements, reflecting the charm and heritage of Kyoto. Walking through the lobby felt like stepping into a traditional Japanese art piece, perfectly in tune with the city's ancient spirit. Convenience is another highlight! With a 7-11 right next door, it’s as easy as pie to grab a late-night snack. It’s almost like having a personal convenience store just a stone's throw away—perfect for satisfying those midnight cravings! Moreover, the staff here are exceptionally trained and eager to assist. Every question was answered accurately, and the service was impressively speedy—truly a testament to their professionalism. To quote one staff member, “We aim to make every guest feel at home,” and they certainly lived up to that promise. Although I didn’t get to try the breakfast during my stay, as I had early excursions planned to avoid the crowds, I’m already looking forward to tasting it on my next visit. If the rest of my experience is any indication, I have no doubt it will be delicious! Overall, the DoubleTree by Hilton near Kyoto Station offers an incredible blend of comfort, convenience, and cultural richness. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone planning a visit to Kyoto!

Room is very small, good location, near to metro. Do not waste extra money on the breakfast, it's not worth it.

Location is very good and easy to access. Lots of shopping mall and restaurants outside hotel. Can go out to have night meal even after 11pm. Only drawback is no parking at hotel.

this budget hotel is located in prime location. very easy to anywhere including to kyoto nara or kobe. it is clean and friendly service. i will stay again here when i come to osaka

Service at counter isn't the best. One day we can asked for sugar and the lady gave. Next day our parents requested they said no. Applies for shower cap too. They have a corner for you to take daily essentials but it's not comprehensive. No shaving cream, shower cap etc. Not the best hotel imo. Bed is pretty small (smaller than Queen), and room is small as well. (Only able to have 1 opened luggage) Location is fantastic. Just 1 min walk to nearest Metro inlet. Just right below hotel there is Family Mart on the left, and 7-eleven on the right. Rooms are not very sound proof, able to hear noises from the road. We are staying at level 02 and 03. Final verdict - we won't revisit this hotel. Nikko is still the best!

For the budget and location, this hotel is great! It's super convenient and about 5 mins walk away from the station too. It's comfortable, clean, the staff were nice, and their breakfast is also pretty decent. I highly recommend it to all travelers.
