Great family hotel

This was a nice, warm place to stay for our journey. The space itself was clean, efficient and comfortable and the people at reception were wonderful. The bathroom was particularly spacious and comfy. My son loved the free game rentals. The location is a bit out of the way for downtown but any easy walk to stores and restaurants.

Amazing hotel in Kyoto

The Mimaru Kyoto Nijo Castle is an excellent hotel. It's in a very convenient location in Kyoto. Very close to multiple subway stations. The hotel is very modern with everything you need to make your stay amazing such as microwave, stove, fridge, washer and dryer, etc as well as all the high tech Japanese controls. But what made the stay even more forgettable was the front desk staff. Very accommodating and their hospitality went above and beyond. From check in, to assisting us with luggage transfer to the check out. They were amazing. Thank you so much.
