While many visitors to Japan travel with their families or in groups, hotels that offer the luxury of relaxation to such large groups are limited in most urban areas. Apartment Hotel MIMARU hotels are located in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto, offering excellent access. MIMARU accommodates large groups on extended stays, with spacious rooms (40 sq. meters and larger) furnished with stocked kitchens, a living/dining area, and laundromats in each hotel. The name MIMARU is a neologism from the Japanese phrase "MInna de toMARU" meaning "stay together." Many guests appreciate MIMARU's apartment-style hotels because they offer a comfortable home-away-from-home space to experience Japan, enabling guests to feel at home.
