About ASAI Kyoto Shijo
ASAI Kyoto Shijo is for travelers who want to feel part of the city rather than just pass through it. Just steps from Nishiki Market and a short walk to Gion, this compact, design-focused hotel keeps things simple but stylish, like streamlined rooms, smart storage, and good coffee in the lobby. There is a warm community feel here, thanks to the hotel's local ambassadors and a ground-floor bar that pulls in both guests and Kyotoites. It is low-key, well-located, and conveniently connected to the city around it.
