MIMARU, Japan’s leading apartment-style hotel brand designed for families and groups, has officially announced the renovation and expansion of its beloved Pokémon Rooms. Operated by Cosmos Hotel Management Co., Ltd., these refreshed accommodations bring an even deeper level of immersion, transforming hotel stays into unforgettable Pokémon adventures. Reservations are now open through November 2026, welcoming travelers from around the world.
Originally launched in 2019, MIMARU’s Pokémon Rooms quickly became a favorite among families, Pokémon enthusiasts, and travelers looking for a stay that goes beyond the ordinary. The newly renovated rooms build on that success with two guiding principles: more Pokémon and more fun for the whole family. The result is a lively, thoughtfully designed space where Pokémon feel like they’ve leapt straight from their Poké Balls and into everyday life.
A Pokémon-Filled Experience From Floor to Ceiling
Each renovated Pokémon Room features over 100 Pokémon integrated throughout the space. From walls and ceilings to furniture, kitchens, and bathrooms, the environment is designed to feel fully alive with familiar faces from across generations.
The rooms are thoughtfully divided into themed zones. Bathrooms are adorned with calming Water-type Pokémon, creating a tranquil atmosphere, while kitchens highlight food-loving Pokémon that add charm to meal preparation. One of the most beloved features remains the giant Snorlax plushie, sprawled comfortably across the bed and serving as a perfect photo opportunity for guests of all ages.
Poké Ball-inspired details extend the theme even further, with custom dining tables, themed tableware, mugs, and bed linens ensuring that every moment—from meals to rest—feels connected to the Pokémon world. Children are encouraged to explore through hidden Pokémon details, while adults enjoy nostalgic nods to both classic and modern generations.
Designed for Families, Built for Comfort
Unlike traditional Japanese hotel rooms, MIMARU’s apartment-style accommodations are built with space and comfort in mind. Guests enjoy fully equipped kitchens, separate sleeping areas, and dedicated dining spaces, making them ideal for multigenerational families or groups traveling together.
This home-like setup is especially popular with international visitors who appreciate the ability to cook their own meals and relax in a spacious environment after a full day of sightseeing. It’s a balance of playful immersion and practical comfort that sets MIMARU apart.
Locations Across Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka
The renovated Pokémon Rooms are now available at 10 MIMARU properties across Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka, including new additions such as MIMARU TOKYO HATCHOBORI and MIMARU TOKYO IKEBUKURO.
Travelers looking to book a stay at specific Tokyo locations can explore the following properties:

Each property is conveniently located near major tourist attractions, shopping districts, and transportation hubs, making it easy to explore Japan by day and return to a Pokémon-filled sanctuary at night.
Exclusive Merchandise and Lasting Memories
As an exclusive perk, every Pokémon Room stay includes special-edition MIMARU-original merchandise, such as themed fabric bags and collectible items. These souvenirs serve as lasting reminders of a stay that feels more like living inside the Pokémon world than simply visiting it.
Guest feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with families, young couples, and longtime Pokémon fans praising the experience. Many describe it as “living in the Pokémon world,” a sentiment that reflects MIMARU’s success in turning themed accommodations into meaningful memories.
For families planning a trip to Japan, Pokémon fans seeking something special, or travelers looking for comfort without sacrificing fun, MIMARU’s renovated Pokémon Rooms offer a unique way to experience the journey—one Poké Ball at a time.
A Missed Opportunity… That Doesn’t Have to Be
We’ve also reached out directly to MIMARU’s PR team with a suggestion that feels like the next obvious step. If you’re already creating Pokémon-themed rooms that feel like living inside the Pokémon world, why stop there?
Exclusive tournaments, themed play areas, or scheduled Pokémon nights would turn these hotels into community hubs instead of just themed accommodations. That’s how you elevate an already strong idea into something people talk about long after the trip is over.
If the goal is to create lasting memories, this is how you do it.
