Our third stay at Mimaru Kyoto Station, a four-night escape, was nothing short of magical—a true homecoming. The room was a perfect haven for our trio, spacious and equipped with every amenity, just steps from Kyoto’s vibrant train station. Yet, it’s your extraordinary team that transforms this hotel into something truly special, setting it apart from anywhere else in the world we’ve stayed. From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in warmth, making us feel like cherished friends rather than just guests. Zun, Yuko, Ahn, Mei, Sei, Tengo, Nico, and Kotomi—your hospitality wove unforgettable memories. The late-night chats, shared laughter, and genuine connections felt like reuniting with family. Mimaru Kyoto Station is blessed with a team whose kindness and dedication shine brightly in a fast-paced world. They didn’t just provide a place to stay—they gifted us moments we’ll treasure forever. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making this trip unforgettable.

This was a great place to stay with the family. The room was large enough we didn't feel like we were on top of each other. We had a small kitchen to fix meals or heat up something from the 7/11 around the corner. The staff were friendly and helpful. The closeness to Kyoto Station was a big plus. There are so many places to shop and eat nearby.

Excellent hotel. The staff were very helpful with reserving restaurants and karaoke. The also made good suggestions and we ate the best meals at good prices with their help. The room is convenient for a family with two children. I wish that the room had Netflix smart tv. I also wish that there was more privacy between the kids and adults. Fantastic staff. Very useful.

I stayed with our family of four (two teenagers) and there was more than enough space for all of us. There was a bunk bed and two twin beds, but you could also set up the kitchen couch as a bed too. The location is perfect. It’s right across the street from Kyoto station and it was easy to get to places in Kyoto as well as day trips to Nara, Uji and Lake Biwa. We were able to walk (about 20 minutes) to some of the major sights as well. There are 7/11s on both sides, so we picked up coffee and snacks from there. The front desk helped us deal with a dental situation and was amazingly helpful. They saved the trip!
