Pros

Eight diverse dining options within 1640.4 ft of the hotel

Strategic location between Gion Shijo Station and Pontocho

Separate bathtub and shower facilities in each room

Common area equipped with microwave for guest use

Cons

No on-site restaurant

“Hotel Meldia Shijo Kawaramachi Annex struck me as a practical choice in central Kyoto, near enough to Gion and key transport links; the air-conditioned rooms and larger-than-average beds (by Japanese standards) certainly add to the appeal after a day of sightseeing. Its location in Shimogyo Ward makes it easy to explore attractions like Sanjusangen-do Temple and Nishiki Market. A solid, no-frills base for exploring the city.”
