MIMARU SUITES Kyoto Central

We cannot thank the staff at MIMARU Kyoto Central enough for making our short stay in Kyoto so wonderful. From the moment we stepped into the lobby, all of the staff were welcoming and answered all of our queries, no matter how big or small. The two-bedroom apartment was super spacious and clean, with great amenities and we would highly recommend. The bedrooms were a great size, especially the master bedroom which had an ensuite and walk in robe, which were great additions The apartment also had a washer and dryer which was super convenient for our group as we were able to launder our clothes without the stress of finding a laundromat. The apartments are super close to the Karasuma Oike subway stop (3-minute walk) which is three stops from Kyoto Station and a 20 minute bus trip to Yasaka Shrine. MIMARU Kyoto Central also had a drinks station in the lobby which was a lovely touch. The staff were also kind enough to organise for our bags to be transported to our next hotel in Tokyo to save us the hassle of moving our luggage with us of the Shinkansen and through the subway stations. Finding out if restaurants were open and available was also not a problem for the staff, who kindly rang around for us to ensure we could enjoy some local cuisine. A big thanks to all staff (including Seth, Chiara, Roy, Jungmin, George and Shiei) for making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable!

We wanted a 2 bedroom for our family of 4, in case jet lag affected our kids. They like to wake everyone up in the room if they are awake, so this worked perfectly. It is spacious and the washer/dryer machine in our room came in handy. Please note that it is a combo machine, and despite running the dryer for 2 hours, the clothes were not dry. We hung the wet clothes and they dried easily within a day. Complimentary coffee/tea machine, beer, sake, and body products were downstairs. It was expensive but worth the stay for lots of room. You must visit Flip Up Bakery down the street! It's delicious!

We loved this hotel! It's in a great location with lots of local restaurants and a choice of small supermarkets nearby and just a few minutes' walk to the subway. The Nakagyo area is really attractive and a quiet and peaceful place to stay. Our apartment was very spacious, well-laid out, comfortable, well-equipped, stylish and quiet. It felt like a home from home and we were really sad to leave. We would have liked to have stayed much longer, both to enjoy our apartment and to explore more of Kyoto - an amazing city! A big thank you to the staff who were all very friendly and helpful. We will definitely choose the Mimaru Suites for our next visit.

We stayed 8 nights and appreciated the space available in the apartment - 2 bedrooms, plus living space and tatami room made our stay as a family of 4 with teen children very comfortable. The kitchen facilities was also helpful and it felt like a bonus to get free beer, sake and other drinks in the lobby area. The staff are very friendly and helpful- one even ran a couple of blocks to bring mittens my daughter had left in the lobby when waiting to checkout.

apartment located on the 3rd floor was 85 sqm in size; 2 separate bathrooms and toilet and 2 TV's; washing machine inside the unit with laundry detergent provided; layout and space was well laid out and comfortable; free flow of beer and sake up to 9 pm whilst hot drinks are available around the clock. charming walk around the neighbourhood with enjoyable views all the way to Sanjo and Gion area.
