Hotel Hokke Club Hiroshima — Hotel in Hiroshima

The photographs shown by other reviewers definitely portray the rooms accurately. They are fairly small, and if one has more than one large suitcase, space will be tight. I had a large suitcase and a backpack so I had just enough space. But the room itself was sufficient: the bed was comfortable, the fridge was the same size one sees in hotels elsewhere, and the bathroom was quite good, with a decently sized shower. ||The breakfast was very good. Some western offerings but it's basically an all-Japan affair. The bacon was sublime: barely any salt and yet very flavorful. Frankly, were the same dishes offered during lunch, Japanese diners would be content: rice, miso soup, side dishes of many different kinds. Grilled salmon and shisamo (smelt fish). Rice. Curry (one of the best curry I've ever had). As well as fruit, yogurt, and Japanese confections for dessert.||Getting to the shopping areas such as Hondori Street as well as to the Atomic Bomb Dome and the Peace Memorial park are doable by foot. Even Hiroshima Castle can be reached by foot. But for those who wish to walk less, a stop of the city's light rail system is one block away. The same light rail can be used to reach Hiroshima Station as well as the ferry which takes travelers to and from Miyajima.||I don't know when I'll get a chance to return to Hiroshima, but if I ever do return and do so alone, I would absolutely stay at the Hokke Club Hiroshima. Definitely very good value. Not to forget as well that the front desk staff were courteous...

I wasn't anticipating much out of this last-minute booking of a hotel, just a place to stay the night while I explored Hiroshima. But it turned out to be a pretty convenient spot.

The location is great if you're planning on visiting the A-bomb dome and Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park since you can walk there in about 10 minutes, and a tram station roughly the same distance. It's also next to a shopping district, including Hondori Shopping street.

Breakfast was the biggest surprise; the buffet menu had an amazing variety of options ranging from a salad bar to various meats, noodles, fruits, even a few snacks including cheesecake bits. Definitely worth the value.

Only complaints I have is that the single bedroom I booked was usual cramped Japanese business-hotel design, including the bathtub, which while deep, doesn't give any space to stretch out one's legs. And the room annoyingly only had 2 power outlets - something I realize a great deal of other hotels also suffer from, but in this day and age with everyone carrying around several pieces of electronics you'd think they'd start catching up with the times. Oh, and the room window was facing a wall, so no beautiful...

I used it on a family trip with elementary school children.I decided here because I focused on the large communal bath and breakfast!The building feels historical, but has the large public bath and the breakfast venue been renovated? I didn't feel old at all.The public bath is a hot spring, so I used it twice, and the breakfast had a menu unique to Hiroshima.The room didn't have a view and there weren't enough outlets, and the bed was soft and fluffy, so I'm almost satisfied.All the staff are very kind.The train station is reasonably close, so access is good, and there is a delicious yakitori restaurant nearby, and the children say they want to stay again.It was a long trip, but I was able to spend it very...
