Perfect location, a few blocks from Hondori and all the shops/restaurants/Peace Park. Staff speaks English and was very nice. We stayed in a private room with a bunk bed and it was great even though the room is very small (it's a hostel and Japan). One bed was medium firm and the other medium soft so they seem to vary. There's luggage storage on site. Would absolutely recommend, especially considering the price.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The room was clean and silent (considering a hostel). The bed was comfortable and the wifi worked well. The location was perfect and they let me leave my luggage there after check out. It was super easy and safe to walk around. The cost-benefit was great!

    Great location, very spacious, great amenities, easy check in. AC was cold and the unit was well appointed in terms of the necessities. Area was safe and convenient to lots of food, stores, and right next to train station. Easy 30 min walk to the major sights in Hiroshima.

    Great location and very comfortable apartment. Close to shops, restaurants and electric tram. Safe place where teens went on a shopping exploration by themselves and close enough to the peace park to walk. Loved this place immensely. Right down to the nightwear and slippers for all.

    Great location in easy walking distance from the main station but also downtown. We had one of the cheaper rooms. It was very clean and personal was great. The room felt a bit dark due to its location/view, small window and interior design. The bathroom was a standard wet room unit, which was fine, but requires some getting used to. We ordered massage (clothed) to the room, which was good.

    The bunk beds were especially spacious. If you took the top bunk. The facilities were clean. The reception was extremely helpful. One of the places you'd want to visit in Hiroshima is Miyajima (Deer Island). If you didn't get the JR pass, you can buy a cheap day pass at the front. You can use it for both the ferry (Not the JR) and the rail cars. The lounge area is spacious and homey. Met some wonderful people here. The hostel is close to a railcar stop, and it's really close to the Peace Park.

    Cheap and cheerful capsule hostel with a great location - right next to the Peace Memorial Park so you can roll out of bed and get straight into sightseeing. They also let you leave your bags there after check-out!

    Overall a good stay, and definitely good value for money. Location-wise, the guest house is at walking distance from Hiroshima main attractions. The room had a lot of bunk beds, it was reasonably clean given the amount of people sleeping in the room. Many showers and toilets around. I would recommend if you are traveling on a budget and are used to hostels.

    One of the best hostels I have stayed at. Staff is suuuper nice, helpful, welcoming... Everything is so clean! Beds are comfortable. Big common area that's great for meeting people, there's always someone hanging out. Great for solo travellers. Nice rooftop. Location is really good, close to shopping street, bar street, convi's... But no noise in the hostel.
