Fudenosato Kobo

The hotel was ideally placed as we were visiting to see the peace park and museum and we also had a day on miyijima island, and were able to catch the boat from the peace park which was convenient. There was a drinks machine in the lobby, and the hotel was surrounded by restaurants and bars, we visited a lovely American bar just behind the hotel and had a meal while they had an open mike session on. The room was for 3 adults and the two double beds were together with no space between them, this wasn't an issue for us but may have been for some people. The bathroom was adequate and shower worked well. We had a kettle and was able to make a hot drink in the room. My only issue was the room stunk of cigarette smoke which made me feel quite sick, there was an air purifier in the room but it couldn't do anything for the smoke smell I'm afraid. The hotel was reasonably priced however I wouldn't rebook personally due to the smell of smoke in the room.

Amazing hotel. Categorized as 3-star but lives up to 5-star reputation. Brand new. Elegant Japanese design. Big rooms. Comfortable beds. Excellent service. Just across from the ferry port that takes you to Miyajima island. Might be a bit far from central Hiroshima, but its advantages outweigh this single disadvantage. Very much recommend!

The location was great but the parking was full. We got directed to the D parking lot just across the road. It turned out to be cheaper and really close. The rooms were clean but smaller beds than usual. We would still recommend this accommodation. Value for money.
