Etajimacho Miyanohara Holidays from NZ$2,152

Size of room better than Apa. Lovely

Weird hotel. Reception’s nearly at the top of the building as is breakfast. Apparently there’s some sort of group bath (ick!) on the top floor. There’s open discrimination against males with tattoos using it though. First the negatives. The room has no storage space so all your clothing is staying in your suitcases. You can’t open the windows so smells will linger. Slightly confusing room cleaning model. Graffiti adorns the entrance to the building. Checkout involves posting your key in a box on the ground floor. On the plus side the hotel is conveniently located for the A-bomb monuments/Museum, castle and Hiroshima Station which are all within walking distance. Also, The room was clean, quiet and the hotel staff were polite. The smart toilet is great! Nothing special and nothing terrible.

I very much enjoyed the breakfast. It's great for the price. The hotel room is around average.

Absolutely beautiful waterfront property. The ferry to Miyajima picks you from the back of the hotel. Unfortunately, the pool was closed during the month of June, which was regrettable as the weather was quite hot. The onsen is beautiful. The gym is clean and spacious with a sample of equipment . The breakfast buffet provided a large assortement of options. We opted for an upgrade to the executive level which offered us access to a lovely lounge with water front views available throughout different periods of the day. Service was lovely.

Next to Hiroshima Airport and a beautiful Japanese garden
