MIMARU Kyoto Nishinotoin Takatsuji

While a little bit of a walk from the subway, the hotel was centrally located and most Kyoto attractions, including the Kyoto Tower, the Gion District and the Yasaka Pagoda were easily reachable on foot or via a short subway ride. The multilingual staff at the front desk were very kind and helpful, and never failed to greet us with a warm, welcoming style. Overall we were very impressed by the hotel itself. Our family of two adults and two teens had a one bedroom unit which was incredibly spacious, clean, ultra-modern and well-equipped. It was also handy to have an onsite coin laundry and dryer!

We stayed in a one bedroom apartment room which was more than enough room for our family of 4. We had 4 beds and a separate living area. Having two toilets was a great bonus. The hotel was exceptionally clean and had great facilities. The coin laundry was good value and easy to use. The staff were welcoming and helpful. The hotel was well located about a 5 mins walk from the subway station which was only 2 stops from Kyoto station. We walked to Nishiki Market which took about 20 minutes. I would highly recommend this hotel especially for families wanting space and comfort.

Big enough room for 4 pax. Although the hotel didn’t provide bed room slippers and toothbrushes, etc., they basically provided everything else! You could loan things like an airfryer, leg massager, toaster, steamer and many more! They provide coffee/tea sachets and even baby diapers and adult sanitary pads. Location was really convenient too. Very friendly and helpful staff. They even have free luggage delivery to other Mimaru hotel outlets. If I’d known sooner, I’d have booked the same hotel chain in Osaka, so i can just send my luggages over for free.

Like the other Mimaru hotel locations, staff were very friendly and helpful. They spoke fluent English. The location was a short bus ride away from Kyoto Station. However, it was quite a distance from other JR stations. We liked that it had a few good places to eat close to the hotel and there were convenience stores and 2 supermarkets a short walk away to purchase things to eat inside the room. All the kitchen utensils you need were available in the room.

Great rooms, outstandingly helpful staff... No wonder everyone says this is the place to bring a family. It's nice to have a kitchen with a good-sized fridge to store conbini hauls, hahahaha. The large dining area with comfortable seating was a huge plus. Even our room, just behind the front desk, was very quiet at night. The bath could use an automated tap shutoff, but the rain shower head is an outstanding addition. Just a great place to stay.
