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.

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.

Our family's favorite hotel in Japan!
A family of five spending two weeks in Japan staying in five different hotels, and this one was the best! The staff were all very professional, courteous, extremely helpful, and spoke good English. On more than a few occasions expectations were exceeded. Very happy with this choice.

It is kind of a shared space condo with a laundry room (the machines are not very well cleaned and the dryer needs an upgrade) . We lived there for four nights, and got no room cleaning at all, only change of towels and that is basically it. Unfortunately I can’t recommend it as a value for money choice.

This was an excellent property to stay for a family of 5. The staff was friendly and helpful (especially with arranging a couple of taxi's to the correct drop off area at the JR line). We would definitely stay here again. The room was very clean and had a lot of space.

Perfect hotel for families
Mimaru is an excellent choice for families. The rooms are well-organized and modern. My teen-age grandkids loved the bunk beds. The location is walkable to Gion and Nishiki market, also train stops.
My grandson left his camera in the room when we checked out, and we were already on the train to Tokyo when we found out. The front desk staff went well beyond expectations to help me get it shipped back home. Everyone was patient, kind and helpful from the moment we checked in. I would recommend Mimaru to anyone looking for a comfortable, clean and modern place to stay.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. The location of the property is not very close to main shopping or sight seeing area, but within 15 to 20 minutes walking distance. The bus stop is close by and only talk 2 to 3 stops to the main tourist area. The room is spacious and can accommodate 4 people. It has 24 hours convenience store next to it and has a 24 hours restaurant just across the street to provide food with reasonable price. Overall, I will recommend this hotel for those who visit Kyoto.
