Room was great for our family of five and within close walking distance to Nishiki market but also far enough away that it was very quiet.. We explored the market early one morning which was great. Host at the front desk made a great recommendation for a tonkatsu which we loved so much we visited twice during our stay!!

Everything about our stay was wonderful. It’s perfectly situated, away from the crowds but still close to the main shopping area and trains. You can also find a mixture of local and touristy restaurants. The staff is very kind and helpful and speak perfect English. I think this is now my favorite hotel in Kyoto.

Fantastic hotel and 2 bed suite was amazing. We wish we’d booked longer. The happy hour was exactly what we needed, too! The free sake tasting and craft beer was so nice. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Mimaru has a great set up and we’ll definitely use it again when we return to Japan.
