The hotel was absolutely stunning! Service was spot on, happy hour for beer and sake was a bonus! Loved the free calligraphy session too. Perhaps next time to place families with kids on lower level as we had kids stomping up and down their room from upstairs and it was a little frustrating to hear this for the 4 nights at various times throughout the day. It compromised the zen feeling and vibe we were looking for during our stay.

Enjoyed our stay.
Great location and large rooms with plenty of amenities. The staff were super helpful. My only suggestion is the check how many beds are in your room. We had 6 people in a 2 bedroom suite, but only 4 beds, we were able to upgrade to a larger 3 bedroom suite with 6 beds, but could be a problem if they don’t have any upgrades available.

This was a great place to stay. The service was impeccable. I asked somebody about the luggage delivery service and two days later when I left, they had already filled out the paperwork (I hadn't even committed to it yet). It's a small thing, but it saved me 20 minutes of figuring it out with somebody. The room was a nice 2 bed / 2 bad apartment. It was clean and nice. The free beer and sake and juices at happy hour was a plus. After long days of hiking around kyoto having a nice refreshing and free beer was awesome. The location is not convenient for any particular popular destination in the kyoto area, but it was central, so getting to most places was rather easy. Overall it was an enjoyable stay that exceeded expectations for me, my wife and two kids.

Fantastic property and staff
This is a phenomenal apartment-hotel. The apartment was clean, spacious and well appointed. Bonus, everyday there is a happy hour with complementary drinks and sake. Better, there is free proper coffee all day and into the evening. The staff is phenomenal as well. English speaking, providing great recommendations, and making arrangements for our specific needs. They are friendly and took care of all of our luggage arrival shipping needs. The location is a hidden gem. It's on a quiet street, next to a beautiful temple, and literally 10 yards/meters from the #5 bus, which services direct access to the shopping district. It's a 5 minute walk to a small and easy to manage subway stop, which is only 2 stops from the Kyoto rail station. Our family absolutely loved this place and we will be back!

I booked a 2 room suite for the second leg of my Japan trip. I couldn't have been more pleased with our accommodations. It was clean and so spacious! It was basically an apartment. The washing machine was easy to use, and kitchen amenities were great. The staff is courteous and helpful. It was also walking distance from Kyoto's shopping district. The beer and wine happy hour in the lobby was also a plus. Book this property if you are travelling with a family, don't want to feel cramped and need some "home-like" amenities.

We stayed at Mimaru Suites Kyoto Shijo for four nights. The hotel is in a great location across a beautiful temple and walking distance to Nijo castle, Imperial Palace, Nishiki market, temples, shrines and old Kyoto. We walked mostly everywhere and had a great experience at the hotel with happy hour each day. Our suite was 2 bedroom, 2 bathrooms which was perfect for our family of four. The room was clean and spacious with a kitchenette. The staff was helpful and kind. They also helped us to book taxis! Overall, we had a wonderful experience staying at Mimaru suites. We look forward to visiting again in the future and staying at Mimaru Suites! Thank you to the wonderful staff!

Love this property! We stayed for 4 nights in a 2-bedroom/2-bathroom unit with our two teenage sons. As this was the last leg of our Japan trip, having a kitchen and sofa was so great. This hotel has the best and most accommodating and friendly staff of any place we stayed in Japan. Loved the happy hour and there were many American tourists as well. I would suggest using the washing machine setting only and hanging clothes to dry, as using the combo washer/dryer either shrunk our clothes or just did not work even after a 3 hour cycle. I don't think dryers are big in Japan so I don't fault the hotel at all. My only complaint is that the beds were a bit chintzy and not super comfortable.
