A clean, attractive, modern hotel in the heart of the city. It was equidistant between the peace museum and park and the modern art gallery. The room was very cool, stylish and comfortable. We stayed in a twin with tatami floors and this gave us a little seating area. We didn’t have breakfast at the hotel but we checked out the breakfast area and it was very chic. I would stay here again.

They made you use a machine to check in even though the staff were standing right there. It was weird and annoying to have to enter loads of details ourselves on a screen whilst staff just stood there watching us. Also we arrived before our room was ready and we left our bags at the hotel whilst we went out to see some sights, and when we arrived later, our bags were still sitting in reception and hadn’t been taken up to our room.

The location was fantastic, walking distance to shops and restaurants and also Peace Park Memorial. There was a great mens shop and restaurant next door. Check-in and out was easy and staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms were a good size and I found the bed very comfortable. I loved the lounge area and enjoyed breakfast there on our last morning. It has a very cool, hip feel about it and the building is awesome. I would definitely recommend this Hotel and would stay here next time I visited.

I didn't realize you needed to put a magnet sign on your door if you wanted fresh towels or have your room cleaned, they're located on the back of the door.

Central location in downtown Hiroshima with 3 rooms that could fit 9 of us. My dad was so happy to stay here vs at Hiroshima Station (our alternate choice) because it was nicer for him to walk everywhere. Modern renovation (used to be a hospital) with nice lounge in converted pool. We had breakfast there one morning (pricey but nice). Front Desk Staff were helpful, calling taxis for my parents (who didn't have the Go app). Best value of all our stays in Japan.

Rooms are small (intentionally), so you need to store most of your clothes in your suitcases. As others noted, the clothes dryer on the lounge floor takes a long time (I just did laundry at a local laundromat about 5 min walk away).

Location is central to all shops transport and amenities. Walk to trams and buses and just Y240 to the airport by bus or Y1300 by taxi. 15 minute stroll to Peace Dome and world heritage sites. Surrounded by value shopping and restaurants plus iconic high end shops and food outlets. A visit to You Me supermarket is a must for any food lover. Staff are attentive and very helpful. The building is understated and has a vibe of its own. It caters for couples and families and also those on a budget.

They take coffee pretty serious here…but only available from 9am and is available near reception. That might be general for Japanese guests but westerners and early risers often prefer the option of earlier availability. This takes nothing away from our overall experience.

The location is great- one block off from "downtown" with tons of restaurants, konbini close by, and it's and a 15 minute walk to Peace Park. If you happen to come the first weekend of June you will be one block from a VERY cool festival (Yukata Festival). The room size was small, but fine for our family of 4 with the loft beds. The rooms are basic (and so are we- so they were fine!) The bar/breakfast room on the 3rd floor has free juice/tea and alcohol for sale and we sat in there while waiting for laundry to finish. They also have a nice shared kitchen but we didn't use it.

Nothing

Great location, short ride from the train station and very short walk to the main shopping area and a 10 minute walk to the peace memorial. I liked the minimalist aesthetic of the hotel and free orange juice in the bar was a nice touch :)

For the price we paid I was expecting a bit more from this hotel. While the room is nice, our room was nothing like shown in the photos, there was almost no natural light since we only had a small window in the corner of our room as opposed to what was shown in the photo for the room. Room was of decent size but nothing special and one person had to sleep next to the wall. There is no spa or gym which is expected for a hotel of this price.

The aesthetics and the thoughtful touches like ceramic mugs and free iced tea. I also liked the care for the environment by using larger containers of shampoo etc and letting people choose to take extras like toothbrushes from the lobby if they really needed. The coffee was great from the lobby but would have been great to be able to but one before 9.

We would have loved to have been able to sit in the lounge area of the poolside space in the morning rather than the windowless kitchen or bunk room, but it was for people breakfasting only, even when there was plenty of space available.

This was my first time staying at KIRO Hiroshima Hotel and my face time in Hiroshima. I arrived in the late afternoon, as it was getting dark out, and was rather tired from my journey to the city. I mention this because my initial impressions of the location were more negative, but the location is not bad whatsoever. The hotel is near the rail line and a short walk from that station. I stayed for 4 nights and 5 days - the staff were very kind during check in, the facilities for laundry and water were nice.

My only concern during my stay was with the dryer. I did 2 loads of laundry and split each load between 2 dryers. I ended up having to dry my clothes multiple times in the dryer and they were still damp after 2 dries. However, even this is a stretch. My entire experience at the hotel was wonderful.

I loved the light-filled guest lounge in the reconstructed pool area (not for swimming), with complimentary drinks and a lovely little bar. As my son was quite unwell during our stay, having this extra space plus a guest kitchen and laundry was very convenient. The staff were very helpful and made it possible for us to stay in our room longer while he recovered. The vibe is very clean and sustainable, with echoes of the building's industrial past.

The room felt a little cramped with our luggage, it was OK for 2 people as a twin share but I wouldn't recommend squeezing in four unless you're travelling light (it's a quad room).

The guest lounge as per the main photo is amazing. Great place to hang out as it's very bright during the day and has a great atmosphere at night. Like the kitchen facilities so you can make your own breakfast as the offered breakfast seemed a bit limited for the price you pay. Excellent location, close to restaurants and public transport.

We couldn't use the lounge when enjoying our own breakfast time even though there were only a handful of guests present. The kitchen area doesn't get much sunlight. Small thing as all other things were excellent!
