Roku Hostel Hiroshima, a property with a garden and a terrace, is set in Hiroshima, 2.5 km from Myoei-ji Temple, 2.6 km from Atomic Bomb Dome, as well as 2.9 km from Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park. The air-conditioned accommodation is 1.7 km from Hiroshima Station. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen and luggage storage space for guests.

This is the best hostel we've stayed in during all of our Japan trip. Staff/hosts are exceptional, absolutely welcoming people. They speak English pretty well (which is rare in Japan). The bar is super nice and a great place to meet travellers or chat with the staff. The rooms are very comfortable. The owner's recommendations of where to go and what to do are SUPERB, this is worth gold. We absolutely loved it here. Thank you Mako & crew for having us! :-)

Located just a 2-minute walk from Tokaichi-Machi Tram Station, 36hostel offers accommodation with free WiFi. JR Hiroshima Station is 20 minutes by tram, and Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is an 8-minute walk.

The location was great. Near to the station(not covered by JR pass though) and the Atomic Bomb Dome, Peace Memorial Park. Small and cozy place with shared space to eat or drink. The kitchenette has microwave, fridge and other cooking utensils. The room has AC and the double bed was bigger than I thought.

Opened in February 2017, Hiroshima Guesthouse HARU is situated in Hiroshima, a 15-minute walk from JR Hiroshima Station.

Each bed comes with a power outlet, reading lamp and curtain to ensure privacy. For guest's comfort, there is a small fan for ventilation.

Haru is warm and she trust me a lot. The position of the hotel could be found as Haru Hotel on Google Map, and Haru's hotel has washing machine, bath room and toilet as all others hostels do. The weather in Hiroshima is dry and clothes are dried easily. The light in the bath room would be down and it is easy to use at night for not too shining.

    Lovely hostel with such a homey / community feel. The host creates a lovely, sociable environment in the common area that becomes a bar later in the evening. But everything is quiet after 10pm. A great environment.

    Hostel is located 5 mins by foot away from Shin-hakushima station (1 stop from Hiroshima). Owner was really lovely and warm, and provided a welcome drink and snacks upon check-in. Sadly I was only able to spend a night but I'd highly recommend anyone looking for a great hostel to spend the night here.

    The house is beautiful. Set next to a river in a really quiet area and only 30 mins by bus to the centre of Hiroshima. I stayed in a traditional styled room with tatami floors looking out to the yard and river. Kengo is such a great host and I really enjoyed chatting with him during my stay! Highly recommend.

    Great hostel! Such a comfortable vibe, the only place I stayed in Japan that truely felt like a hostel. The welcome drink each night was very inviting and created space to meet all the hostel guests and have a fun night! Both nights I stayed, we all arrived as solo travellers but went out to dinners/drinks together! The host and her daughter are a delight and it feels like your a guest at their home. A highlight for my trip in Japan for sure.

    We loved the design of it - modern with a scandi twist! We were in a dorm room which worked well and had lots of space. The bathroom/shower areas were brilliant - so clean with very smart hairdryers! The location was great - right by Peace Memorial Park, with a tram stop conveniently at the end of the road. We also had a bite to eat at Columbo, right on the corner by the hostel which was delicious and buzzing with locals.
