The best available Japanese guest houses to stay near Hiroshima

May 11, 2023 Dorsey Hagwood

A trip to Hiroshima is best kicked off with a visit to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, which contains a museum, the remnants of buildings destroyed by the 1945 atomic bomb and monuments to the people killed by this nuclear attack. Understanding Hiroshima’s relatively recent devastation is key to fully appreciating its beauty and culture. Visit splendidly rebuilt historic sites like Hiroshima Castle and Shukkei-en Garden, and don’t miss the Itsukushima Shrine on the nearby island of Miyajima.

Very good modern hotel

Reviewed By ASkye

Very good modern hotel in an excellent location. Easy short walk to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum. Easy short bus from the JR station to the hotel. Surrounding streets have good food options, shops etc. Our room was comfy and cosy. Small but very clean and modern private toilet/shower room. Downstairs communal area was nice and spacious. Friendly staff and nice touches like origami instructions on the downstairs tables :). Also convenient luggage storage facility. Thanks for a great stay!

Great little budget hostel

Reviewed By Iris A

Quality budget hostel not too far from the main railway station, not hard to find if you have a map. The room we had was quite small with a bunk bed, but it served our need perfectly. Bathroom was tiny, but again it was fine by us for the price. Easy, no frills, cheap and safe accommodation.

Céntrico, muy cerca del parque memorial de la paz

Reviewed By Carlos L

Nos alojamos 2 noches en este hotel. La verdad es que al llegar nos costó mucho poder conseguir la llave de la habitación: al hacer la reserva te dan un código con el que tienes que abrir una pequeña caja en la entrada y ahí está la llave de la habitación (no hay recepción como tal). No acertábamos a poner bien el código. Pero por lo demás, estuvimos a gusto. Habitaciones muy buenas, la cama era comodísima. Aire acondicionado, televisión de pantalla plana. Teníamos balcón... Baño y duchas compartidos, pero muy limpios.

Cosy and homely little hostel, perfect for a 2 day stopover

Reviewed By ashems13

We loved our stay at J Hoppers! It wasn't as modern and tidy as other hostels we stayed in during our Japan travels but it was very homely and we felt comfortable hanging around in the lounge, watching tv, making our own food etc. There is everything you could possibly need inside and nearby the hostel so you won't want for anything!

Santiago Guesthouse Hiroshima

Value for money

Reviewed By AkshataRao

This is a pretty basic hostel close to the Peace Memorial Park. While the room was spacious, the lounge-and-kitchen is rather small and sits together with the reception. We didn't get towels on check-in and had a hard time finding the receptionist at their desk after that. The showers are on a different floor, and are okay-ish. The best part was the proximity to the Peace Park.

Perfectly Good Hostel

Reviewed By Grizinator

Spent one night here in the spring. Was a perfectly good hostel only steps from the train station. The beds were reasonably comfortable, with a privacy curtain. The staff spoke English well. Was about a 20 minute walk to the attractions in the centre of the city. A very good option if you are backpacking and on a budget.

Best hostel in Hiroshima

Reviewed By ChrisMacedoine

I stayed there with 2 other french friends. It is more than just a clean place. It has an atmosphere. You can play some old video games on the second floor and enjoy a great bar on first floor. The barman would do everything he can to help you talking with Japanese people. Great place to meet some locals ?
