Great family hotel
This was a nice, warm place to stay for our journey. The space itself was clean, efficient and comfortable and the people at reception were wonderful. The bathroom was particularly spacious and comfy. My son loved the free game rentals. The location is a bit out of the way for downtown but any easy walk to stores and restaurants.

Great place to stay. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Property in great condition, room was spacious and very clean. From the property it was easy to get around Kyoto on the public transport system.

Great hospitality and staff are always willing to help, despite language barrier. They do speak basic English. Very personal since it’s a one way entry and you’d have to pass front desk as you’re leaving and entering. Feels homey.. washer as dryer in unit was extremely convenient and useful, however, do plan ahead. It holds a very small load, extremely small, and takes hours to complete a super small load.. we made it work. Pretty close to Nishiki market and super close to Nijo castle.

Our favorite hotel
This hotel was so clean, and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and wished we stayed at different mimaru in Japan. Zun at the front desk is truly amazing. He went above and beyond to make our trip to Kyoto memorable. It was my sons and my nieces bday week and surprised them with candy and a card. Also, we almost missed our Shinkansen to tokyo but Zun order is a taxi and told the driver exactly where we should be dropped of at the train station. Just wow. We ended up being 10 mins early and was able to grab some snacks for our ride. Chefs kiss!

We recently stayed for two weeks as we explored Kyoto and environs and had a fantastic experience. Clean, well-appointed room, laundry and kitchenette invaluable, shower and soaking tub terrific. Very helpful staff called taxis, recommended a karaoke spot for English speakers, and were exceptionally friendly, helpful, and responsive. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.

Very helpful staff. Gave us a great recommendation for dinner (okonomiyaki). Loved that they have a washer/dryer in the room as I did a load of laundry every night. Would stay here again when we are back in Kyoto! Going to another Mimaru in Tokyo today. Thank you so much, Mimaru!! We will miss Kyoto!
