      Welcome to MIMARU, Japan’s first urban area apartment hotel.

      “Can we create a hotel that elevates travelers’ stays into a fulfilling time with friends and family?”
      The first time this idea crossed our mind was when we noticed a family from overseas carrying a number of large suitcases entering a budget hotel. At that time, there were only hotels with tiny single or twin rooms available in Japan’s urban areas. Travelers might have had trouble finding space for their luggage or ended up booking multiple rooms otherwise they couldn’t unwind in their cramped rooms. We wanted travelers to be able to spend their precious vacation time together, stress-free.
      We finally came up with an apartment-style hotel, which was uncommon in Japan at that time. After relaxing in their spacious, accommodating rooms, we hope our guests encounter more fulfilling experiences during their trips.
      MIMARU strives to become your “travel partner” in Japan’s three major cities and hopes to enrich your travel experiences, rather than simply providing accommodation. Everyone at MIMARU is here for your support and is looking forward to welcoming you.
