MIMARU SHIJO was the best hotel we stayed at on our 3 weeks trip in Japan. Very convenient area to get around. Lots of restaurants and shopping close by. The two bedroom suite was perfect suite for my family so everyone could have their own space. In suite laundry was fantastic. The staff was extremely helpful and the MIMARU luggage delivery was the best service we experienced out of all hotels we stayed at. I would highly recommend this property to anyone, especially families.

A true home away from home in Kyoto

Our family (parents, 2 teenage boys and adult niece) spent 3 nights here in August 2025. It was our third hotel during our trip and by far our favorite! The 3 separate bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, spacious living room and washing machine were perfect for us. It allowed us additional privacy and less wait for showers after long days touring in the hot sun. The location made it easy to walk to shopping and restaurants, especially our twice daily convenience store visits. The staff and service are amazing with so many included perks like coffee, cold water, sake and beer. Staff is fluent in English which is very convenient for foreigners

Amazing room and food.

We were welcomed by friendly staff, and beautiful grounds. We do not speak Japanese and the staff could accommodate. We booked a room with a private onsen. The breakfast and dinner was amazing. Our waitress took the time to help us understand how to enjoy each course.

This hotel has a great location. This was our second stay and was a good as the first. The room has so much space. It comes with a microwave, fridge and a sink. The staff is very helpful and kind. We have no complaints and would highly advise families to stay here. They also have free rental items such as chargers, scales and other misc items someone may need during their travels. The happy hour of free beer, sake and coffee was awesome. We cant wait to come back again.

Had a good stay here. Rooms were comfortable though sometimes the doors got in the way. Would be better if they were all sliding doors. Location was pretty good. About a 25 minute walk from Kyoto station or 10 minutes from Shijo station. Taxi to and from Kyoto station average 1,000 yen. Staff was friendly, happy hour was nice.
