MIMARU SUITES Kyoto Shijo

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.

Very clean and spacious hotel. Nice staff. Will stay here again.

Excellent quiet location, staff was very attentive and respectful, the staff spent time with us to ensure they clearly explained things pertaining to the accommodations and answer our questions, very close to trains and bus service, breakfast buffet option was excellent

It war a right place to stay

Amazing staff and location

Such a great property. Super helpful staff at the front desk. Enjoyed their saki samples during the happy hours as well! Will definitely go back!

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

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.

Friendly staff and convenient location. Highly recommended.

The front desk was fantastic and very helpful!
Love the “Bridge” cafe for breakfast and the proximity to attractions and shopping areas.

Amazing property

Love this apartment hotel chain!

Great apartment for families. Very spacious. Easy and beautiful 15-20 min walk to Gino street or main tourist area. Close to subway. Temple right outside hotel. Beautiful. Free happy hour of beer and sake everyday. I would stay here again and I’m very picky.

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.

We stayed for four nights, with two kids. The stay was great, the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The room was also great, plenty of space and very well maintained. Much recommended!!

Great staff and they were very helpful. 2 bedroom was great for a whole family. The kids loved it. The amenities downstairs were great and the drinks for happy hour were excellent. We havo no complaints and will come again. Room was well kept and very comfortable. A+++++

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.

We didn't get to stay here long but it was a very pleasant stay. We got one of the suites and it was well worth it. The kids had their own room and it was nice to spread out. They had a washwr and dryer with detergent provided.

The free water, coffee and drinks were very nice touch.

Would come back again.

One of the best places we stayed at. They thought of everything. The happy hour was a happy surprise!

Excellent room with plenty of space. Convinent location within easy walking distance to bus stops, subway station, and Nishiki market. Very friendly and helpful staff. I needed to search for a place to rent a wheelchair for my mother. The hotel staff offered one to us for free to use for the entire duration of our stay.
