Daiwa Roynet Hotel Hiroshima

The room is clean and quiet. We liked how easy it was to indicate if we needed our room cleaned or if we only needed new towels by using the magnets on the door. When we arrived at Hiroshima station, we took street car line #1 for about 15-minutes to the hotel. The hotel is about an 8-minute walk to the Peace Memorial Park. We enjoyed our stay. :)

The hotel’s central location near the Peace Memorial is undoubtedly one of its highlights. It made exploring the city convenient and added a layer of historical significance to the visit. Additionally, having Lawson, Family Mart, and 7-Eleven in the neighborhood was incredibly handy for quick snacks and essentials. The room itself was a pleasant surprise. It was spacious and well-furnished, with a proper desk, a chair, and even a mini sofa, making it comfortable for both work and relaxation. The bathroom was equally roomy, which added to the overall comfort. The staff also deserve special mention for their friendliness and willingness to assist, which enhanced the overall experience.

The rooms were relatively small but clean. Very bare-bones decor - you can tell this is a business hotel vs. a touristy hotel, which is why the cost is better. Loved the Family Mart in the lobby, and the hotel is located about a 3 min walk from the local streetcar station, which is what we ended up using as our primary mode of transport around Hiroshima. There are also 4 combo washer/dryer machines to use in the building - it was 500 yen per wash & dry cycle per load, and the machines automatically added their own laundry detergent. You also put in a 4 digit pin when you started the load so it would remain locked until you came back and put the pin in to unlock it. Also, in the lobby you can use the check in machines to exchange your coins for bills which came in extremely handy for us.

Perfectly located with tram and bus stops outside and only a short walk to the peace park and atomic bomb dome. The staff were helpful pre-arrival and throughout my stay; the requested bedding was in place in the room on arrival and a proper secure storage of luggage post checkout was available and worked well. This and the free loan umbrellas allowed maximum use of time in Hiroshima. The breakfast board showing when people were going for breakfast was a useful innovation to show the actual likely peak demand. Breakfast had just three choices (Japan/US/mixed) but was delivered swiftly and was good quality.

The staff was very professional and check in was easy despite my only being able to speak english. They were very accomodating and held our luggage for a few hours before check in. It is an easy 10-15 minute walk from everything. The price was phenomenal. I would definitely stay here again.
