The property & room were beautiful the problem was location. There are different locations for this hotel, but this one wasn't near anything within walking distance. Everything is a far- I would definitely stay again at this property just not this location. Very clean, & accomodating staff

This hotel was best hotel we stayed in during our Japan trip. The room was huge which so good when travelling with 3 teenagers, clothes washing and drying facilities, staff went above and beyond with helping us with any questions. Close to transport, markets, shopping, all key Kyoto sites. I cannot recommend it enough!

Great place!!! With family and friends

This is the best place for a family. It’s very roomy, clean, comfortable and the staffs are friendly and very helpful. They speak English very well. The location is walking distance to every where. There’s a grocery store right next to the hotel. We love it here and will definitely come back again. We booked 2bedroon stay and we love our room. HIGHLY RECOMMENDS this place.

I asked for a pitcher of water from one of the staff and they never returned with the pitcher. I waited for a long time and no one ever returned. Also the dryers do not work properly so unless you have a couple hours to spare I wouldn’t suggest trying to do a quick wash

The front desk staff was amazing at this apartment style hotel. I wasn't expecting first class service but we definitely got it! They provided us a dinner recommendation, booked the taxi and booked the table. It was one of the best dinners we had in Japan and was in Pontocho Alley, which is a pretty popular area! The room was beautiful, everything was comfortable. Had a great experience!

Everything was taken care of.

We enjoyed our stay very much. It is one or two blocks to the bus stop, but is convenient to walk to Pontocho and shopping as well as Gion across the Kamo River. The Fresco grocery store was next door. The room had a nice kitchen and a spacious table for dining. The room was very large and even had a set of bunk beds which we didn’t need. The bed was firm but comfortable. It was in good a quiet location but close to many sites and to the bus system.

Fantastic apartment-style room. We (2 adults, 2 kids - 8&10) had lots of space. The kitchenette allowed us to make our own beeakfast most days. The hotel had small appliances that we could borrow such as toaster and rice cooker. Laundry on site was quick and efficient. We could not have asked for a better hotel. The location was not ideal in that it was not very close to much of the shopping areas (eg. Nishiki market is about a 15-20 min walk). There is a grocery store across the street as well as a 7-11. The subway to Kyoto station was a 10 min walk. Overall a great experience and next time we are in Japan we will stay at a Mimaru in a more central location.

We booked a family room to accommodate three adults, two small kids, and a toddler. It was cozzy and confortable though we could have used a bit more space. Having a kitchenette to cook breakfast and snacks was very convenient considering that there is a Fresco grocery store is around the corner. They could use a few extra washing and drier machines since over the weekend they get very crowded. They had a fun treasure hunt activity for the kids with a nice price at the end, motivating visiting the main spots in Kyoto. Bus stations are a 2min walk and the main street markets Temarachi and Nishiki are about a 15min walk. The staff was very helpful and friendly.

We were travelling with 2 kids and the rooms were very spacious in comparison to other properties we stayed at during our Japan trip. While the cot was booked out the staff were able to provide us with a bed guard rail which made it really convenient for us. The staff were super helpful in guiding us with booking train tickets to Osaka (non Shinkansen option) so we were able to book a premium car seats for a comfortable journey with kids. There's a few transport options close by and a 24/7 Fresco right opposite. Kawaramachi main strip is about a 10-15 min walk and convenient. This property was a hit with kids and we would definitely be returning to Mimaru in the future.

We loved the Mimaru apartment we stayed at. Fabulous and close to Gion, transport, eateries and a supermarket. The rooms were large for Japan and comfortable for a family. Laundry and luggage storage available. The only disappointment was after arriving early, being charged 5000Y for an early check-in. Given we were staying 6 nights, I thought that was pretty steep. The staff were very friendly.
