The 4-star Asai Kyoto Shijo Hotel is situated right in the centre of Kyoto about 800 metres from such shopping venues as Nishiki Market. Boasting a location just around the corner from the 1300s Bukko-ji Temple, this Kyoto hotel features 114 rooms as well as a restaurant.

“Asai Kyoto Shijo surprised me with its cultural mix; Thai restaurant, European-style bathrooms, and a distinct Japanese design. The hotel's location is superb for exploring Kyoto, though be prepared for a short walk from the subway. It's a modern space with some quirks that make it memorable.”

this hotel was a gem during my travels. the location was perfect, near multiple train stations. the staff was friendly and able to answer all questions (i had many!). the bed was very comfortable and i appreciated the well-designed space with all the usual amenities.
the breakfast options, though adequate, could perhaps benefit from a slightly wider variety.
