Stayed with my husband and two 20-something kids. The space worked well for us, the kitchenette was great, and loved having a washer/dryer in the bathroom. The location was also fabulous, walking distance to many sites and short taxi and train rides to others. Staff was so friendly and helpful.
Only a few *small* inconveniences, notable mostly because of the contrast to another Mimaru location we stayed at in Tokyo. We would have preferred four beds instead of having to fold up futons to use the “living space.” The traditional short and small table was challenging to use. A frosted shower door would have created a bit more privacy in the bathroom. Still, loved our stay and would return for subsequent visits!

Helpful staff. Walkable location. Close to 7eleven. Spacy. There are places to put your luggage in the room. Somehow the room was easy to tidy up. Washing machine was a really good one.
Beds were too firm for scoliosis-kiphosis backs. There was a scent smell after they cleaned the rooms. Hot water was not as hot.

Loved our stay! The family apartment is huge and it was so nice closing the door between the living room and bedroom. There's a decent size kitchenette and living room, and a huge shower room and bathroom/laundry area combination. The entryway was the biggest we had in Japan which is helpful when you have four people going in and out, and there's a decent amount of storage for clothing including hangers and drawers, as well as a cupboard under the TV. The in-room laundry worked like a charm and we used it nearly every day. We also used luggage forwarding and it was easy and smooth. The staff were wonderful, always helpful, cheerful and friendly, and provided lots of information for whatever we needed. I was leery about taking the bus but it was so easy and there are several routes that are just outside the hotel, so getting to and from was not a hassle. Bonus was the water station (with options for different temperatures) by the front desk for guests to fill up their water bottles.
The mattresses were pretty creaky and lumpy. The vacuuming wasn't overly thorough; removing the carpet would have been better for cleanliness. It's a bit of a walk from any grocery store and the corner market, and about 15 minutes to walk to Nishiki Market, but I'd stay here again.

We are a family of 2 adults and 2 kids. Staying at Mimaru for 4 nights really goes very well.
They have a really clean room with complete kitchen appliance, and the most important is a washing machine in the room that could wash & dry.
Actually, Mimaru hotel is one of my wishlist for staying at Japan. Really happy it came true.
As for the staff, they are so nice and very helpful. They have staff from indonesia, so we dont have a difficulty in communicating.
Really hope we could came back again to Mimaru hotel.

We loved our room ? super comfortable and there's plenty of space for our family (and it has everything you'll ever need!). The location is ok, close to Nijo Castle but a bit of a walk going to Kawaramachi area. There's a bus stop at the corner so it's a plus too. The staff are all friendly and accommodating and we didn't have any problems communicating with them. Overall, highly recommended!
the location is a bit far from downtown but it's walkable as the area is really peaceful and quiet. It would have been a bonus too if they do daily overall cleaning (other days are eco-clean only), but it's okay because they do have a schedule to follow.

The concierge was very polite and helpful. The room was spacious and the beds were comfortable. The kids loved the bunk beds! Everything in the room was immaculate. The washer/dryer was easy to use and helpful to have in the room.

We were surprised that four of us (parents plus teenagers) managed to co-exist in this room for a week without too many issues. The bathroom arrangement worked well enough even though only one toilet between four and it was very convenient to have a washer dryer. Bath and shower in a combined room but separate (ie not a shower over bath) was nice. Kitchen was manageable with large enough fridge. Supermarket just around the corner and convenience stores all around. Nice location, walkable and easy access to great public transport options.
No real complaints.

Very Good
Like: room was clean and tidy, liked daily cleaning, had washing machine and basic essentials for a comfortable stay for our family of five. Kitchen was rather a small bench but we rarely used as we mostly ate outside. Really helpful staff at reception that helped us with directions, catching bus or train, and luggage forwarding services and really polite and friendly. Has a bus stop in front so quite handy and distance to train station was relatively short walk.
They need to have few handy rails and more hooks in bathroom to make hanging few things easier. Did not like the sliding wooden doors that blocks the access to wardrobe or fridge. Also, maybe have tea/coffee bags in the room instead of at reception.

Amazing facilities in the heart of Kyoto. Lovely, friendly and accommodating staff and great size apartments for a family of four. The big plus is the in-unit washer/dryer combo. The staff really go out of their way to make guests comfortable and our kids had a fabulous time there. We were so sad to leave but we will be back!

I liked that it was very easy to find and just a short bus ride from Kyoto station to the hotel.
There wasn’t anything I didn’t like.
