Hotele niedaleko Miyajima, Hatsukaichi

Good points: 1. Location is amazing since it’s right on the island and everything is within walking distance. 2. We had breakfast and supper included in the stay. Food was varied and plentiful for most palates. Plenty of fruit and veg too. 3. Staff for 98% of the time was great. Language barriers are expected. Google translate is a perfect alternative to the translation issue. The front desk staff were awesome and was extremely helpful. 4. Room is spacious for a traditional Japanese hotel. We had our own onsen which was delightful. The beds were mostly comfortable and we had two full mattresses pushed together creating a massive king! 5. Once you enter the hotel you must take off your shoes and the hotel provides house slippers which generally fit most people. The lobby has shoe cubbies for your shoes. They do not lock, but Japan has very little petty theft so you don’t need to fret over potential thievery. Negative points: 1. This is of no fault of the hotel, rather it’s a Google maps problem. Be aware Google maps will basically have you climb the mountain and drag your suitcase through a dirt path. Instead put in the Miyajima post office and with the water to your right, turn up to the small road with the post office to your back. Keep going straight for about 2.5 city blocks and you’ll walk right into the hotel. Much easier than the 40 minute hike we took. 2. Restaurant staff on the whole were great. Only issue was this morning when we went to breakfast this morning and tried to sit in our usual table, the staff tried to sit us with some other people. I asked if we could sit at a different table and the individual said no and walked away. We didn’t know these people they tried to sit us with. However, they were tourists like us. I was frustrated because the staff member just walked away from us when I was still speaking to him. Very rude! 3. The toilet room smelled really bad. It was a combination of mold and chemicals.

It is a modern hotel with a rebranded feeling. The interior is also renovated beautifully, but I was also worried that it was sacrificed by several concept priorities. The front desk is on the top floor, but there are few elevators, so people who go to the front desk and people who go to the room are always waiting. There is no front desk staff in the midnight zone, and when I checked out at AM5 to catch an early morning flight, there is no key recovery box that I heard that it was installed in 1F, and it is wasted to the front desk on the top floor and back in the back I was excused by the sleeping staff who would have been sleeping, and I couldn't feel it from the morning. 1F is a fashionable Italian restaurant, and there are many uses other than hotel users, but there is no accommodation privilege, and there are a large number of insects in the plant near the open table outside.

Fantastic hotel, opened just 9 months ago, still smells new. Located 10 minute bus trip from Hiroshima station and 15 minute walk from the peace museum/park. Stayed in beautiful one bedroom suite on 21st floor (second highest). Great view of the city through panoramic windows. Staff very friendly, engaging in small talk, specially when they see you are wait for example at the reception. Great breakfast choice, egg station. You can order to table some extra drinks like mango juice and waffles. Executive lounge located on 22nd floor, also great views. Lounge looking nice, with tables quite cramped. As far as food is concerned, I think one of the best Hilton lounges I recall. Choice of number of small sandwiches, cheese, cold meats, salads, beef stew, sweets etc. Swimming pool, dry sauna and large jacuzzi available.

I made a plan to walk Suo-Oshima during the four consecutive holidays in September. Accommodations on the island are fully booked on some days, and nearby Yanai City is also fully booked. So I made it to Iwakuni. I was able to stay very cheaply during the Go To campaign. It was a few minutes walk from Iwakuni station, but I was happy that the parking lot was free. The room is on the 6th floor with 11 floors and has a little view. The area is about 14m2, so there is no problem if you are alone. The hotel is not new, but it was clean. The faucet in the bath was old-fashioned and I felt a little nostalgic. I was happy that breakfast started at 6 o'clock. The content is pretty good. The price is kept low, and I think that it is a passing level enough for a local business hotel.

If you stay at a business hotel with three families, there are many places to add extra beds to the twin room, but this hotel has an adjacent twin room and a double room in the room connectivity There was a connecting room connected by the gingdoor, so it was very comfortable to stay with family 3 people. The bathroom used a large twin room and the toilet used both. Breakfast buffet was not luxurious, but it was a good content for the price. The hotel parking lot is on the 4th floor ～ 8th floor of EKI City Hiroshima opposite the hotel. Going to 1F by B elevator from the parking lot and going out in front of the hotel. Parking fee is 1,200 yen per night and will be paid at the hotel front desk at check-in. It is not a luxurious hotel, but it is located in a good location to access the station, there is also a parking lot, and the accommodation fee and breakfast fee were cheap, and it was able to stay in a clean and relaxing room. I thought it was a very good hotel considering the cost performance.

金額はかなり高いものの、このエリアでは最も高級なホテルだし、部屋も広い。 広島空港からくるバスの呉駅前バス停も、ホテルの目の前にある。 コンビニもすぐ近くにある。 ただ、買い物に行く場所や食事に行く場所が全くないのは、どうしてなのか。 駅の反対側、海側が中心部なのかもしれない。 ヤマト博物館も海側だし、多くのドッグももちろん海側。 海まではすぐなのだ。 坂が続く部分が多くて、神戸よりももっと平地が少ない。 長崎もそうだが、港がある地区は、傾斜がある地形が良いのだな。 陸上の斜面がそのまま続いていて、海面下も急に水深が深くなっているのだろう。 山の斜面にも家々が広がっている。 部屋は７０９号室。 東側を向いている部屋で海が見えないのが残念。 部屋は広くて、設備も充実している。 仕事用の机が独立しているのが良い。 高級ホテルという感じが良く出ているが、これで価格が手ごろだったら問題ないのだが。欠点のないホテルだ。

A direct bus from Hiroshima Airport to Kure arrives opposite to the hotel. There is a hotel in front of you, but you will go up to the second floor of the station and get off by the elevator of the communication passage. The return was more difficult, and there was no down escalator at Kure station, and I lifted my suitcase and got off the stairs. This is not a hotel side problem, Kure station is bad, but there is a problem with access. The hotel has a meaningless automatic check-in machine depending on the example, and it takes a lot of time. The shower is difficult to adjust the temperature, and it feels strangely cold even if hot water is put in the bathtub. However, the free breakfast is very good, betraying the expectation. There are many guests, including foreigners, whether the evaluation becomes good because the breakfast is good. I think it is the best location for Yamato Museum.

Really great! In addition to the location is a little bit off. There is also a swimming pool to play in summer. There are also gyms and bakeries, but there are a few types of bread. It is recommended to eat which is expensive for breakfast, if it is impossible to not eat enough.

I liked this hotel, friendly staff all round with English speaking staff at the reception.
