Mimaru Kyoto Station is popular for several reasons. Located a mere 2 minutes away from JR Kyoto Station (Hachijo East Exit), it makes the perfect base for your trip. It is designed to feel less like a hotel, and more like a "home away from home."

Their modern Japanese rooms are spacious (over 40 square meters), non-smoking, and have a fully-equipped kitchen with dishes and cooking utensils.

Since meals are not included in the accommodation plan, you can buy some local Kyoto ingredients at the market and prepare your own favorite meals! Free WiFi is available throughout the building, and laundry is available at an extra cost. It's the perfect hotel for a long-term stay, and it's got great access to Kyoto sightseeing spots!

As soon as you enter the Pokemon Room, you will be greeted by your lovable roommate - a giant snorlax doll! The dining room and bedroom are decorated with Pokeball-themed wallpaper, and the dishes in the kitchen sport a matching Pokeball design.

Pokemon and Pokeballs are hidden in just about every detail of this room. Can you find your favorite?

Prices for the Pokemon Room begin at 22,000 yen per night.

Guests who stay at this Pokemon Room in Kyoto will also receive original limited-edition Pokemon goods! Souvenirs include one original drawstring purse, one welcome card, and two original hand towels (per room).

You won't find these goodies anywhere else. That's just another reason why fans will love staying here!

The City View room looks over the Kyoto cityscape and the railway. The Garden View room looks out on the veranda and its Japanese garden. Finally, the Connecting Room, as its name suggests, connects two rooms together, and can accommodate up to 10 people.
