A Kyoto Gardens DoubleTree by Hilton Wedding
Kyoto Gardens, perched on the roof of Los Angeles’ luxurious DoubleTree by Hilton hotel, is a celebration of Japanese tradition and the wonders of nature. A replica of an ancient Japanese garden in Tokyo built for Samurai Lord Kiyomasa Kato that was in its day an escape from harried big-city life, Kyoto Gardens is likewise a serene haven from the hustle and bustle of LA. This half-acre venue is lush with winding stone pathways, vibrant flowers, flowing waterfalls and ponds. This urban getaway may be the perfect spot for your Los Angeles wedding.

And you and your bridal party can relax, prepare, and make memories together as you anticipate your big day in one of the hotel’s one- or two-bedroom suites, many of which have panoramic views of the Los Angeles skyline.
