Great stay
It was a clean and beautiful hotel. Built only a year ago. However, the room was too small and a bit far from the major touristy areas. If that is not an issue for you and don’t mind walking fifteen minutes to the main area, it’ll be a wonderful stay. The staff are especially welcoming and friendly.

The Asai Kyoto Shijo Hotel was without a doubt, my favorite hotel we stayed in during our trip to Japan. Absolutely lovely design, comfortable beds, and amazing water pressure in the shower. The neighborhood was convenient and walkable, with options for sights, food, and coffee nearby! I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and recommend to friends traveling to Kyoto.

The hotel was nice and clean, albeit a little small. My only gripe is that it is quite a bit of a walk to the station, shopping street and coin laundry. The staff was friendly and helpful.

The hotel is totally clean, modern, and sleek. The rooms are small, but perfectly suitable for us as a home base. The beds were comfortable, and we never heard another person or sound during the night. The location is great for accessing the subway, huge shopping districts, and quaint streets. The pet temple is one block away and a must visit!
