Top hotels in Hashirano

Grandvrio Hotel Miyajima Wakura
Large room compared to other hotels in other cities. Very clean, beautiful ocean view with free drinks (only on certain hours). We only stayed for one night after touring around Miyajima, but was very impressed, and wished we stayed longer. There is a Shuttle Bus that takes you to and from the Miyajimaguchi ...

Front desk staff were GREAT!! The breakfast was definitely worth it. Walking distance to delicious restaurants and close to 7-11 for snacks. If I ever travel back to Iwakuni, I am definitely staying here again!!

Miyajima Seaside Hotel
Wonderful property. Listed as a hotel but definitely more a ryokan. Meal served in room…staff came in to set up bedding. Attentive and friendly staff, from greeters to front desk to housekeeping, restaurant and drivers. Arigato!
