RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima
Thank you for your good service! Very clean room and good amenities. The pyjamas is a bit disappointing because it is a one piece top and a bit translucent.

HOTEL LiVEMAX Hiroshima Funairimachi Riverside
The room was clean and they provided all the toiletries needed for my stay. The staff were friendly and respectful. There was only on elevator which was a bit inconvenient if you were in a rush. The area around the hotel at night was a bit dark.
