The staff is extremely nice and accommodating. They speak English fluently as well. The rooms are well appointed and very comfortable. It’s a great hotel for large families for sure. I’ve stayed at a couple other Mimaru locations, and have enjoyed my stay at every one of them.

Loved the room layout and amenities ( kitchenette, utensils, washer/dryer, bunk beds for the kids). Location is 10 mins walking from Nijo castle and 5 mins from Sanjo market for casual evening stroll and dinner. Not that close to any station particularly but we used 'go' app for the tourist spots and so enjoyed more laid back location.

We loved this hotel. The front desk staff was lovely and friendly. The room was perfect for four people and the kids were very comfortable on the futon beds. The shower water pressure was excellent. It was great having laundry in the room although it took a while to actually dry everything. We were walking distance to Nijo Castle and many other areas were walkable too. We would stay there again.
