Osaka to Hiroshima: Bullet Train, Costs & Day Trip Tips
Travelling from Osaka to Hiroshima is straightforward enough to fit into a day trip, although there’s plenty to keep you here overnight as well. For most travellers, the most convenient way to get from Osaka to Hiroshima is the Bullet Train from Shin-Osaka Station to Hiroshima Station. The faster bullet trains take around 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes. It’s a practical choice, and the one that I took myself when I made the trip. But, the bus is also worth comparing, as is a road trip if you've got more time to play with. Here’s how all the options of getting from Osaka to Hiroshima stack up.

Osaka to Hiroshima at a Glance
Transport | Approximate journey time | Price of one-way adult ticket | Best for |
Around 1 hr 20 min, 1 hr 30 min | Around ¥10,000 to ¥11,000 (roughly AUD $90 to 100) for a standard Ordinary Car ticket | Day trips and travellers who want more time in Hiroshima | |
Highway bus | Around 6 hours; check the individual daytime or overnight service | Around ¥4,000–¥9,000 (roughly AUD $40 to $70) | Travellers with a flexible schedule and a tighter budget |
Allow around 4 to 5 hours of driving for the direct journey, plus breaks and traffic | Rental quote per vehicle, plus fuel, tolls, and parking | A road trip with stops between Osaka and Hiroshima |
Like I said above, if it were me, I’d be taking the Shinkansen if you’re visiting Hiroshima for the day. Saving a few thousand yen on transport becomes less appealing when it uses up most of your sightseeing time. If I was planning on spending more than a day in Hiroshima, then I’d start to consider the cheaper bus or even turning the whole journey into a multi-day road trip.

Osaka to Hiroshima by Bullet Train
Catching the bullet train is the fastest and most convenient way to get from Osaka to Hiroshima.
Which Osaka Station Should You Use?
The departure station is Shin-Osaka (新大阪) and the arrival station is simply Hiroshima (広島). Note that Osaka Station and Shin-Osaka are separate stations; Shin-Osaka is the dedicated terminal for bullet trains.
Nozomi, Mizuho or Sakura Services: Which Should You Choose?
These are the main service names to look for when comparing direct departures:
Service | Japanese name | Nationwide Japan Rail Pass | Kansai–Hiroshima Area Pass |
Nozomi | のぞみ | Additional Nozomi/Mizuho ticket required | Included |
Mizuho | みずほ | Additional Nozomi/Mizuho ticket required | Included |
Sakura | さくら | Included | Included |
Image sourced from Unsplash.
The different services really don’t change a whole lot; arrival times and prices vary a little bit, but not so much that I’d focus on choosing one service over another.
As long as you’re finding a nice departure and arrival time that works with your plan, go for it. Do make sure to check the duration of the trip, though, as when searching there will be some slower services that show up.
If you’ve already booked a Nationwide JR Pass, you should note that Nozomi and Mizuho services aren’t covered, so you’ll need to book onto the Sakura service. If you’ve got the Kansai & Hiroshima Area Pass, it includes tickets on all three bullet train services.

Osaka to Hiroshima Train Tickets and Rail Passes
If you’re visiting Hiroshima and returning to Osaka within five days, the Kansai–Hiroshima Area Pass is worth checking before buying individual tickets. Add an airport transfer or another day trip, and the savings become easier to see.
Return Train Tickets vs the Five-Day Pass
Here’s the comparison for one adult travelling in Ordinary Car, Japan’s standard class:
Ticket option | Return-trip cost | What you get |
Two regular reserved-seat Shinkansen tickets | Approximately ¥20,000 to ¥22,000 (around AUD $178 to $196) | Your outward and return journeys |
¥17,000 (around AUD $150) | Five consecutive days of unlimited travel on covered routes, including the Hiroshima return journey |
Against a regular return ticket from Osaka to Hiroshima, the pass can cost as much as ¥5,000 less (around AUD $45). For me, it’s a no-brainer to get it, even if going between Osaka and Hiroshima is the only trip you make.
The only downside is that when you buy a JR Pass, you’ll have to collect it at the station, versus having the tickets on your phone ready to go. A minor inconvenience, not a big one.
What Else Can You Do With the Kansai–Hiroshima Area Pass?
The fact that the Kansai-Hiroshima Pass is better value than a return ticket from Osaka to Hiroshima also opens up some other possibilities for your Japan itinerary. Using Osaka as a base, you can do a day trip to Hiroshima, and then squeeze in a few more journeys as well:
Add to your itinerary | Covered transport |
Kansai Airport transfer | Haruka between the airport and Osaka, Shin-Osaka or Kyoto |
Himeji day trip | Shinkansen between Shin-Osaka and Himeji |
Miyajima visit | JR train from Hiroshima to Miyajimaguchi, followed by the JR West Miyajima Ferry |
Kyoto or Nara day trip | Covered conventional JR trains from Osaka |
All of these journeys fall within the official pass area, so with the one pass, you’ll be able to jump on these trains for free. The pass also includes ordinary reserved seats on Nozomiu, Mizuho, and Sakura services between Shin-Osaka and Hiroshima. And it covers a trip from Hiroshima to Miyajima, a worthy add-on.

For this trip to Western Japan, after buying the plane tickets, the best part was that buying a pass at the same time gave me a direct $50 discount! It was incredibly worthwhile and cheaper than other websites, saving me money on my trip and making me even happier! 👏
#From a real consumer review
5/5
This pass is cost effective and convenient for use for trip from Osaka to Hiroshima, Himeji, Kobe, Kyoto and Nara, and include reserve seats for Shinkansen.
5/5
It's very convenient and, if you're planning a lot of trips, a great deal. We even got lost one day, got off, and then immediately transferred, all without any extra charges, explanations at the ticket office, or anything. Our very first trip was on the Hello Kitty train 🐱)))
5/5
The most worth it experience of all this pass is the highlight of my travel. Worth every penny, you can ride the shinkansen any time you can treat it as a metro. You can ride from shin osaka to hiroshima or even you can go anywhere in kansai region. It can also cover you in hiroshima by using the sightseing bus you can roam around without thinking the a cost. If I haven't used this pass maybe I will spend more may 5 times. Highly recommended. It can take you from Kyoto to Hiroshima
5/5
This is a must-have pass if you're traveling from Osaka or Kyoto to Hiroshima and back! We used it to travel to Hiroshima, Kobe, Himeji, and all on the Shinkansen. We also took the Haruka express from the airport to the city. It's a must-have!
Regional Pass or Nationwide JR Pass?
The Kansai–Hiroshima Area Pass covers a specific part of western Japan. The nationwide Japan Rail Pass covers a much larger rail network, but of course costs a lot more.
A seven-day nationwide Ordinary Pass currently costs around ¥50,000 (roughly AUD $445). For Aussies travelling to Japan, it can be a good choice if you're planning on taking several long-distance journeys across Japan.
Your itinerary | What to compare |
Osaka, Kyoto, Nara and a Hiroshima return within five days | Kansai–Hiroshima Area Pass |
Tokyo → Kyoto/Osaka, then a Hiroshima return before flying home from Kansai | Separate Tokyo–Kyoto/Osaka ticket plus the regional pass |
Several long-distance journeys across Japan within seven days | Nationwide pass versus the total cost of separate tickets and regional passes |
You already have a nationwide pass valid for your Hiroshima visit | Use it for the Sakura train from Osaka to Hiroshima |
Visiting Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka (AKA Japan’s “Golden Triangle”) doesn’t automatically make a nationwide pass worthwhile. For a trip with just one long-distance journey from Tokyo to Kansai, I’d recommend buying that ticket separately and then using the regional pass for the western-Japan portion.
The Kansai–Hiroshima pass does not include the Shinkansen towards Kyoto or Tokyo. Osaka–Kyoto travel is covered on eligible conventional JR trains.

Buying Your Pass and Reserving Seats
You can compare JR Passes on Trip.com, an official partner of JR Pass. After buying the Kansai–Hiroshima pass, you’ll need to pick up your Pass in Japan, and then use the JR ticket machines or ticket offices to reserve your seats on the train.
Bringing Luggage on the Shinkansen
Measure your suitcase’s length + width + height, including wheels and handles:
- 160 cm or less: No oversized-baggage reservation is required.
- More than 160 cm and up to 250 cm: Reserve a seat with an oversized baggage area.
- More than 250 cm: The bag cannot be brought aboard.
Reserving an oversized baggage area adds nothing to the normal reserved-seat price. Pass holders should request this seat type when making their reservation.
For a day trip, I’d leave the main suitcase at your Osaka accommodation if possible. A small bag is much easier to manage while exploring Hiroshima.
Osaka to Hiroshima by Bus
So far we’ve talked a lot about the train, but if you’re planning on spending a few nights in Hiroshima, the bus might make some sense. It’s cheaper than the train, so you can put some of those savings towards your accommodation or food.
In Osaka, buses depart from the Osaka Station JR Expressway Bus Terminal. Some other bus operators might use their own stop, so if booking a bus, check the booking confirmation.
Is the cheaper cost worth the extra time it takes? That’s up to you. I will say that riding the bullet trains in Japan is an experience in itself, so for me, I don’t think the slightly cheaper journey time is worth it, but you might feel differently.
There is also the option to do a day tour from Osaka to Hiroshima on the bus. A long day, but hitting all the highlights.
Osaka to Hiroshima by Rental Car: Make It a Road Trip
Aussies do love a good road trip, and if you’ve got some time on your hands, you might be considering renting a car in Osaka and driving the distance to Hiroshima. It’s roughly 330 km, around four to five hours total if you were to drive directly between the two cities on the main highway.
But what’s a road trip without some good sightseeing? The easiest option is to split the journey into two days, giving you time to stop and explore some other things. One potential route is Osaka → Himeji → Kurashiki → Hiroshima, letting you visit Himeji Castle, then spending a night in Kurashiki, known for its willow-lined canals that run past white-walled former storehouses.
The one thing to think about is whether you’ll return your car to Osaka, or pay the one-way drop-off fee for leaving your car in Hiroshima. It can add a substantial amount to the total cost.
My pick: choose a car when you want several stops or countryside detours. For a straightforward Hiroshima city visit, the Shinkansen remains the easier option.

Can You Do a Day Trip to Hiroshima from Osaka?
Yes. A day trip works well by Shinkansen, especially if you concentrate on Hiroshima city. Leave Osaka early, have your return ticket already booked, and carve out plenty of time for the Peace Memorial Museum in Hiroshima.
A Comfortable Hiroshima City Day Trip
This is the pace that I’d recommend for this day trip:
Time | Suggested plan |
Around 7 to 8 am | Depart Shin-Osaka on a direct bullet train |
Morning | Travel to the Peace Memorial Park area and visit the museum there |
Late morning/early afternoon | Walk through the park and visit the Atomic Bomb Dome |
Lunch | Sit down for some Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki |
Afternoon | Spend some time exploring the city centre, enjoy a walk along the river, or stop by a cafe |
Late afternoon/evening | Return to Hiroshima Station for your return train to Osaka |
The Peace Memorial Park and Museum are the big stops of a day trip in Hiroshima, and I’d recommend allowing two to three hours to do them together. The museum deals with the bombing through personal stories and belongings, so it deserves time and your full attention.
For lunch, Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki is an easy choice. Cabbage, noodles and other ingredients are built up in layers on a hot griddle, then finished with sauce. Find a counter seat if you’d like to watch it being made; Okonomimura is one place to browse several restaurants together.

4.5/5
10 reviewsThere were belongings, records, documents, and photographs from the time of the atomic bombing...to be honest, the content was so painful that I wanted to look away, but I'm glad I went.
Can You Include Miyajima Too?
You can, but plan for a much fuller day. Miyajima requires another journey after reaching Hiroshima: a JR train to Miyajimaguchi, a short walk and a ferry crossing.
If both places are priorities, take an early Shinkansen and keep the itinerary focused on the Peace Memorial Park area and Miyajima’s waterfront and shrine. I’d also recommend going straight to Miyajima, then returning to Hiroshima from there to spend the afternoon at the Peace Memorial Park.
My preference would always be to spend one night in Hiroshima if you want to explore both places properly. But I also understand that not everyone has so much time to spare; if you want to go for it, it is possible.
Getting Around After Arriving in Hiroshima
On the train, you’ll be arriving at Hiroshima Station, but you’ll need onward transport for the Peace Memorial Park or Miyajima.
Destination | Practical route from Hiroshima Station | What to know |
Atomic Bomb Dome and northern end of Peace Memorial Park | Tram 2 or 6 to Genbaku-dome-mae | The tram ride is about 15 minutes; add waiting and walking time |
Peace Memorial Museum | Continue on foot through the park from the Atomic Bomb Dome area, or take a taxi | A taxi is worth considering with luggage or limited mobility |
Miyajima | JR Sanyo Line to Miyajimaguchi, walk to the ferry terminal, then take the ferry | The train takes around 30 minutes and the standard ferry crossing around 10 minutes, before waits and transfers |

Considering the extreme weather in summer, I thought it through and booked this hotel. The location is incredibly convenient. You can reach the hotel from the bus stop by just walking through the JR station. Right outside the hotel's second-floor entrance is a tram stop 🚃, which can take you anywhere you want to go, though it's a bit slower than the JR, so you need to keep an eye on the time. You check in on the 7th floor via the elevator. The location is excellent, and the hotel itself is very new. The commercial facilities within the JR station are super convenient; you can buy things and then head straight up to your room to drop them off. There are also many great restaurants nearby. After so many trips to Japan, this was the first time I finally got to try Hoshino Coffee. It's also very convenient for visiting Miyajima and the Shimose Art Museum.From€ 61

I picked the hotel for the location, this year my remit for hotels was to be as close to the beach as possible. The entrance is pretty spectacular, a shop and a cafe on the ground floor.
There is a gym and an onsen (I couldn't go in as I am covered in tattoos - this is a normal rule in the onsen's. If you have tattoos and are not aware of this you should be travelling around Japan) There are multiple restaurant's on different floors. Hands down the best was the sky lounge on the 23rd floor amazing views and a selection of food either buffet style or an a la carte menu.
I need to come back to sample the other restaurants, staff were very helpful and the hotel was spotlessly clean. Amazing location not too far from the city and the peace museum, there is a taxi rank outside the hotel my trip this morning to the station was so easy, taxi door to door. If you go I urge you to walk around the island as well wonderful views with little sandy areas to sit and relax.From€ 74

The hotel's location is excellent. From the second floor of JR Hiroshima Station, you can follow the skywalk across the street, and it's right next to Hiroshima TV. Having a 7-Eleven downstairs is also very convenient. The hotel's cleanliness and facilities are great, and the rooms are a bit larger than typical Japanese hotels. Breakfast is on the 20th floor with panoramic views, including the station. The variety is quite rich, and they even have Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. The only thing I hope they can improve is the towel-only replacement service. It's nice that clean towels are hung outside the door without disturbing guests, but it would be even better if there was a bin in the bathroom to dispose of used towels.From€ 46

The biggest downside is that the hotel is very close to the Shinkansen tracks, which makes a lot of noise. You will need earplugs if you cannot stand the noise (if you want to sleep early, or if you want to wake up late).From€ 30

Place looks very old & old fashion. Lift/elevator is on 2nd flr. Need to take own luggage one floor up before taking the lift/elevator. Not suitable for guests who cannot lift their luggage.
Breakfast was ok, not fancy & no surprise. Room size tiny bit larger than some hotels.From€ 34

People were nice. Bed was comfortable and bathroom was fine. Room a touch small for Japan. They have a nice, free, happy hour with Whiskey, and mixed drinks, and little cakes. Coffee available all the time along with juices. A little pricey, but it was a busy Saturday night.From€ 33

Right in front of peace memorial and a 6 min walk to atomic dome and orizuru tower, 800 yen cab ride to hondori, great location overall, needs improvement with reception staff, communication is a little bit difficult, but will recommend to family & friendsFrom€ 31

Good hotel good hotel network. A little far from the main center. You have to go through the entertainment area (it can be bypassed on the more pleasant World Boulevard). Breakfast is full from the morning. Coffee tea only at morning hours from 6 to 10 (which is strange, it was possible to drink tea at any time). Breakfast is always crowded. The room is typical for the network. Default cleaning: you need to put the garbage and towels - everything will be replaced. Cheap washing in the hotel: 200 yen per washing, 100 yen - a half-hour dry. Supermarket, bus stop nearby. There were nice views from the window.From€ 39

Very good location, walkable distance from the Hiroshima station which allows you to go anywhere easily. Perfectly clean, convenient room. Service was great. What could be improved is the soundproofing (you can hear the trains quite loudly at night) and the choices offered at the breakfast. Maybe one more pillow and towel too.From€ 36
