fav HIROSHIMA STADIUM

The hotel is located about 10min slow walk from Hiroshima station which was fun for us as we could see how people live on the way to and from the hotel. We had our suitcases with us and were fine to walk to and from the hotel with them in tow. The rooms have a separate toilet which is a bonus and very clean and modern. The bathrooms were one of the biggest amongst the hotels we stayed in Japan. The washing machine was a bonus too but we struggled with a dryer function and once figured it out, it really crinkled our clothes, but this is a minor issue. The rooms didn’t have all mattresses made, only the base mattress in one room and we had to make tatamis ourselves for the rest of the family, we weren’t sure if it’s normal or not but didn’t raise it with staff. There’s no view, all windows are blocked with stained glass but you can open a window a crack for fresh air. Rooms don’t have balconies. Overall, a great small hotel with great staff and Ok coffee, thank you favHiroshima Stadium!

The room upon arrival was as represented by pictures beforehand. A very comfortable room with a good bathroom and shower, it even included a washing machine. For Western visitors, there is no dryer, so unless you're staying for several days to dry your clothes, not much point in using the washing machine.

What a fabulous location! We were within a short walking distance to the baseball stadium and we enjoyed walking to the game with all the local people. The traditional Japanese-style room with tatami mats and futons we set up ourselves added to the joy of experiencing this culture. This location was excellent for accessing the streetcar to historic sites in Hiroshima, including the Peace Museum.

We had an Art Quadruple room, which was large and well equipped - particularly liked having a washing machine in the room. The kitchen was reasonably equipped so you could do the basics. It has the feel of a motel since room access is via open walkways. Breakfast was basic - yogurt and granola or an egg sandwich. Staff were friendly and helpful. Location was good for us since we were travelling by train, with the station and access to buses 10 minutes walk away. Overall, we were pleased with our stay.

The staff went above and beyond to help us, especially when the two taxis we used to get us and our luggage to the hotel incorrectly took us to a different hotel in their chain. I loved the cafe and the outdoor area that was a perfect place to sit and relax. They project a fireside video onto the courtyard wall at night, which was always a welcoming sight when we were returning from our explorations each day.
