Conveniently located. It's a simple room, but if you're staying on a business trip, you don't need anything more. For breakfast, there is Komeda Coffee on the 1st floor.

We enjoyed our stay at the ASAI hotel. The staff was friendly and the room was very clean. The room is on the small side, but we found it cozy and loved the minimalistic design. The pillows and the bed were also heavenly! We would definitely recommend this hotel!

The room was small, but it was enough as I mostly just went to sleep. I'm glad the shower curtain didn't stink. Most other business hotels are smelly. It was really helpful that they kept my suitcase for me after checking out. The lady at the front desk had a wonderful smile.

We had a cheap stay. I used it on a business trip, but due to the typhoon I had to leave early, so I wasn't able to enjoy much of Kyoto. I would like to use it again the next time I visit.
