HOTEL CLA-SS HIROSHIMA TOKAICHI — Hotel in Hiroshima

Stayed 4 nights here at Hotel CLA-SS TOKAICHI. Location was good - about 15 minutes to Hiroshima Bus Station and restaurants, and Peace Park. Good base to see the O-Tori and shrine in Miyashima island and the rabbit island. Checking in was quick and pleasant using a translator. The Staff was always helpful.

We had Room 403 which was a 3 full beds, a living room, kitchenette, and a tatami tea room. They had all the bath towels for the whole stay at the ready and did not come into the room during our stay- as forewarned.

Their free coffee station was very helpful for coffee drinkers like us. Also, they had a vending machine that was dispensed necessities such as 1 LITER water bottles, ¥200 umbrellas, diapers even. In this same lounge, you could also lock up your luggage for a quick run for lunch and dash back for luggage on your way out. Check out was very quick and easy as well. Really enjoyed our stay here! 💕

These rooms were HUGE and well equipped with everything you'd ever need.

Smart locks for the room doors and keypad entry into the hotel (safe and secure).

Upon check out, hotel staff allowed me to store my luggage (free of charge for a few hours). They affixed a security camera photo of me (checking out) to my luggage to confirm that it belongs to me. Maybe a bit creepy, but it worked! I appreciated this.

This is a small selfservice hotel located about 15 min walk from peace Memorial museum, opposite direction of the center of town. There is no service staff on site, so no receiving of Yamato service, booking of anything etc. The focus here is"value" and the 5 stars are clearly nonsense and false advertising. Rooms are fairly big and clean for the category and cost. Things generally work. The area is a bit boring compared to what else Hiroshima has to offer. The tone in communications could be more welcoming, " strictly prohibited" from entering rooms with shoes, " out by 10.00 am, or else we will charge you", luckily there's no one around to sneer at you but it does not help the feeling that guests are not all that welcome. All in all, it's a value proposition, so take it as that and you may not be...
