MIMARU Opens New Property in Osaka Namba
On October 1, 2026, MIMARU, Japan's prominent brand specializing in apartment hotels for families and groups, proudly inaugurated its latest property, MIMARU Osaka Namba Station Annex, located in the bustling Namba district. This newly opened hotel comprises 68 guest accommodations, tailored specifically for larger groups, with half of the rooms designed to host six guests and the other half accommodating four guests.
Each apartment-style accommodation comes fully equipped with essential amenities, including a kitchen, a dining area, and an in-room washer-dryer, merging comfort with convenience for family travelers. Among its offerings, the standout feature is the lavish Sky Garden Three-Bedroom Suite, which spans 100 square meters and can house up to six people in a luxurious environment that includes a private outdoor terrace overlooking the vibrant cityscape of Osaka.
Designed for Family Dynamics
Addressing the complexities often faced during family getaways, MIMARU has reimagined the family travel experience. The primary goal is to provide a space that allows family members to engage at their own pace. The unique layout recognizes that, within a shared accommodation, one family member may wish to rest while another prepares for the day, while others manage laundry or gather around the dining table. This design encourages an environment where family members can coexist in harmony without the need to reserve individual rooms.
The Sky Garden Three-Bedroom Suite reflects this innovative spirit and features six single beds, three washbasins, two toilets, as well as a dedicated bathroom and shower area. The private terrace becomes a versatile space where guests can unwind, escape the city's hustle, or reconnect with each other amidst a tranquil outdoor setting, all while remaining immersed in the energy of Namba.
Mao Mochizuki, the International PR representative for Cosmos Hotel Management, expressed the brand's vision: "As group size increases, so do the logistical challenges – from handling luggage and laundry to coordinating shared bathroom use. Our hands-on experience with accommodating larger families has guided us to focus not only on how many beds we provide but also on how groups flow through a day in the same apartment. Having the freedom to pause and come together within one space is a truly luxurious experience for families."
