We loved our stay at Mimaru Nijo Castle! Room is spacious. Although my kids are too small for the bunk beds, they loved the idea and the space we used for packing!
We love Kyoto and close proximity to Nijo Castle, bus stations and Sanjo walk make this stay memorable.
Ammenities are abundant and staff members were excellent. Overall, a stand out in our Japan's trip.

Nice hotel to stay with family. Location is not perfect but walkable to Nishiki market, Pokémon Centre and Daimaru.
We also able to find parking every night, so it’s not a bad idea to drive .
But compare to Osaka branch, this one is a bit small and only got limited family rooms so we have to sleep on the futon bad for 4 nights which is not that comfortable. They only make up and change the bed sheet on the 4th and 7th night, this is the only thing that I have a little bit complaint. The cleaning part can be improved.
Overall is a pleasant stay , staff are also nice .
Will definitely choose Mimaru for my stay in Japan!
Response from Property: Dear Hui Tang, Thank you for the wonderful feedback. It is a great reference for improving our facilities and services for our future guests. Especially about the cleaning service and futon. We will improve the cleaning service, especially the bed-making service to ensure a better staying experience for our future guests. Based on your reference, Family Apartment with Sofa Bed could meet your needs for a comfortable bed. It is quite a famous room type among guests because of its bunk beds and ability to fit five people in one room. We are looking forward to seeing everyone again. Best Wishes MIMARU Kyoto Nijo Castle Front Desk

What a pleasant stay! MIMARU Nijo Castle was beyond perfect. Fully equipped, with all amenities, super clean and convenient to transportation. The washing machine and the fully equipped kitchenette made our stay convenient. However, it’s the staff that makes this place special! Mention of honor to Louis, who welcomed us with warmth and kindness. He allowed us to check in earlier, that felt like a treat! Once he discovered what kind of travelers we are, he prepared a list of places of interest, complete with pictures, information and QR codes. The rest of the staff also helped with information and taxi (thank you, Kevin!) Highly recommended!

Daily Housekeeping is only for clearing of trash and changing of towels. Cleaning of the floors and making of bed is only once every three days. Cooking utensils are all provided and very convenient. Hotel is quite a distance away from the subway station. However we drove, no parking available at the hotel so we had to park at nearby public carpark. Staff were nice and well mannered. Enjoyed the stay at Mimaru Nijo Castle! Just wished the complete housekeeping is made daily. Would love to come back to a nicely made bed while we’re on a holiday. But overall it was a pleasant stay!

Suitable for family travel, can sleep at least 4 people. Simple cooking is also possible.
The luggage check-in service is very convenient, one suitcase costs 2400 yen and will be delivered to the hotel or airport in Osaka the next day.
There are 711 and Lawson at the door, and there is also a coffee shop for breakfast. Nijo Castle can be reached in a few minutes. The nearest subway is Nijo Castle, which is a few minutes walk away.

For family trips, you must find an apartment hotel with a kitchen and washing machine. The layout and size of the rooms at Meimanrujia exceeded our imagination. Although it is still not as clean as a hotel, it basically meets all the living needs of a short stay of half a month. The room can sleep up to five people, which is especially friendly to families with two children or elderly people. In addition, you can walk to Nijo Castle. There is an old pedestrian street nearby that is completely a living place for Japanese locals. Unlike the lively and expensive Nishiki Market and Shinkyogoku, Sanjokai Pedestrian Street has many traditional old shops for drinking coffee and eating eel rice, which is very cost-effective.

The pictures on the website are real. A family of five can live in one room. There are clothes dryers and washing machines, as well as kitchen pots and pans. It is very convenient and the space is not small. It is enough.
