ASAI Hotels, based in Thailand, has announced a partnership with Aiello to introduce the cutting-edge Aiello Voice Assistant (AVA) to ASAI Kyoto Shijo, located in the heart of historic Kyoto. The hotel welcomes guests from all over the world, offering a unique experience immersed in Japanese culture and aesthetics. ASAI Kyoto Shijo and Aiello aim to enhance the fusion of Thai hospitality and Japanese regional culture, while featuring innovative technology.
The functional and modern guest rooms at ASAI Kyoto Shijo incorporate local culture and aesthetic sensibilities, allowing guests to experience the traditional elegance of Kyoto. With the introduction of AVA and its latest amenities, the hotel enriches the guest experience even further.
The communal area of the hotel, which includes dining and bar areas, is frequented by the local community and provides opportunities for the hotel guests to interact with Kyoto residents. Through various activities involving the local community, guests can experience firsthand the concept of ASAI, which is to “LIVE LOCAL”.
ASAI Kyoto Shijo combines traditional Japanese aesthetics with technological innovation to provide guests with an unique and memorable stay. AVA, which answers guest questions and delivers timely information, has been introduced in selected rooms, transforming the guest experience and streamlining hotel operations through a voice-controlled interface.
“At Aiello, we believe that technology should enhance the guest experience rather than hinder it, maximizing its value,” said the CEO of Aiello Vic Shen. “With ASAI Kyoto Shijo hotel’s incorporation of AVA, we have been able to achieve a perfect harmony of tradition and innovation in the guest experience.”
ASAI Kyoto Shijo, which continuously offers unique experiences that immerse guests in local culture, will further advance the guest experience through the seamless integration of innovative technology.
