Amazing 5-Day Stay

My stay at Mimaru Shinmachi Sanjo in Kyoto was wonderful. Our room was spacious and big enough for 2 people - could even fit a 3rd if we wanted. The air conditioner and laundry worked well, and the shower had great pressure. The toilet also had so many helpful settings - music for privacy, deodorizer, etc. The staff was kind and helpful - Harry gave us many tips! Their luggage storage room is also very helpful and we felt secure leaving our belongings there. I also encourage guests to try their luggage delivery service - you can avoid carrying your bags all over Kyoto when traveling elsewhere! My only feedback is I wish the mattresses were a bit more comfortable, but it really made no impact on our stay. Thank you, Mimaru!

Large spacious apart hotel, with all the amenities you'd want. Location is good although not at the busiest heart of the city, it is close to 2 stations and bus routes. Nishiki Market and Pontocho are in walking distance but you not near noisy crowds. Several breakfast options are nearby including chain restaurants, several coffee shops and bakeries. Family rooms are spacious and modern - nice big table to enjoy your konbini snacks. Staff are fluent in English and helpful. Good for families with kids.

We loved this hotel! It was clean and quiet and the hotel staff were very helpful. We felt very safe walking in the neighborhood in the evening. There were many restaurants close by as well as a pizza place, drug store and a grocery store. Despite having all these retail places, it maintained the vibe of a residential neighborhood. I would stay here again!

This hotel provided our family of four with a a great stay. The family apartment was reasonably priced and very large. The hotel is a 2minute walk from the main train station. There are buses that will take you to all the main sights leaving regularly from the station. There is a large shopping centre at the station and everything you need within walking distance of the hotel. Highly recommend this property for families.

The staff went above and beyond, helping with every request we had, which made our trip stress-free. Truly a wonderful experience for families visiting Kyoto.
