Mitarai Holidays from AU$821

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

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.

Close to all the amenities that I enjoy while in Japan period

Expedia / Hotel staff did not share the entry code on my email. I had to call them and ask for it. They were very helpful and confirmed my reservation. But there was a momentary panic.

This is not a standard hotel. If you are looking for a clean, quiet apartment type space with a kitchenette and laundry, this is PERFECT. If you are looking for traditional hotel services, reception, support services etc., this is not what you want. The check in is kiosk type and tedious for a large group. A 15 min walk from Hiroshima Station but very direct. Excellent TV and WiFi.
