Opened in June 2017, Hiroshima Hostel EN is a hostel combined with an on-site restaurant. Located in the centre of Hiroshima, the property is a 3-minute walk away from JR Yokogawa Station, while JR Hiroshima Station is 2 stops away via train.

The vibe was really friendly. At night the guests got together and chatted, and they seem to have lots of events where you can meet locals, too. The lodgings are simple but very clean, and I felt like my stuff was totally safe.

Looking for a luxury tent?

For travellers who love being in nature with an added sense of luxury. Also called glamping, tented camps provide full or limited services, while surrounded by the wilderness. Typically in permanent or semi-permanent camps, these private tents/yurts are a great way to rough it while staying glamorous.

    Great location. Very close (5-10 min) walk to the Peace Park and the shopping mall. 5 star customer service. Very good breakfast. The room size are average, very clean and very comfortable beds. Quiet location all provide a safe in an area to lock up luggage. I would stay here again, and I recommend this hotel. We booked 2 rooms and stayed for 3 nights at a very good price, great value for your money.

    Such a wonderful, comfortable room! The staff were lovely. SUper clean and a great location. We loved the little apartment-style setup. Beds were fantastically comfortable and huge -- with two bunk beds suspended over them via ladders. Couldn't be beaten for comfort, cleanliness and value for money!

    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.
