Kyoto Station is far off many sights, but has great places to eat within the station.
Higashiyama one is also not really in Higashiyama central (about 30 min walk to Ninenzaka). Shijo one is also not ideal.

I’d say stay that’s the case for most hotels in Kyoto unless you’re prepared to pay a lot of money. So any would do. Shijo one is probably the closest to what you’ll need. Sights are dispersed, transport slow and it’s very crowded apart from February.
