Good but average location.
Pros:

MIMARU are great reliable chain of hotels. The hotel was clean with good facilities.

Cons:

The location isn’t great. Anything worth visiting is a 15 minute walk away. The staff were nice but not as warm and friendly as other MIMARU hotels we stayed in

Good idea, but poor design execution.
Pros:

The room was clean and the hotel staff were excellent.

Cons:

We booked a room for 4. Two single beds were basic. The other two beds were Ikea level mats on the floor. I understand that there is a traditional element to this, but it was the poorest layout of the three Mimaru's we stayed at on this trip.

Great hotel near but not close to Shinjuku station
Pros:

A clean, modern apartment-style hotel that comfortably fit two adults and two teenagers. Simple and well-designed, with great amenities including slippers, toiletries, luggage forwarding, and reliable WiFi — same thoughtful touches as the Mimaru brand delivers elsewhere.
What we liked: Spacious enough for a family of four, spotlessly clean, and the in-room extras made the stay easy. Luggage forwarding handled on-site was a genuine convenience. Close to Shinjuku which is a transit hub to the rest of Tokyo, where there are a lot of shops and restaurants.

Cons:

What to know before you book: Beds and pillows are quite firm — worth knowing if you’re a light sleeper or have back sensitivities. Storage is minimal, just a small hanging rack at the entrance, so plan to live out of your suitcases.
The bigger consideration is location. The hotel is about a 15-minute walk from Shinjuku Station — which sounds manageable until you factor in that Shinjuku is one of the most complex train stations in the world, spanning several city blocks. Every outing requires building in extra time just to navigate the station itself. The surrounding area has little in terms of restaurants or attractions, so you’ll be relying on Shinjuku as your hub for almost everything. A 7-Eleven and nearby convenience stores help for essentials.
