Hiroshima Station Universal Hotel Shinkansen Exit Right
"People were unable to check in earlier, so there were many people in the lobby. We waited for about half an hour there. A reasonable price for a room including dinner and breakfast. If you are a woman, you should bring your own conditioner."

APA Hotel Hiroshima Ekimae Shinkansenguchi
"Clean room, but not very roomy. Close to a 7-Eleven and Hiroshima Station. However, the washer and dryer didn't work properly. We added extra time for drying, but our clothes still didn't dry. Other than that, the hotel was comfortable for short stays."

Trust Hotel
"Spent one night. Loved the layout of the small room. Wasn't going to use onsen, but couldn't get the shower to work. While onsen was small, it was nice. Hotel is on the quieter, less touristy, side of Hiroshima station. Very easy access to train station. Breakfast was just okay, but a nice perk. ..."
