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.

Convenient and Easy to Use
The JR Pass was very convenient and made traveling around Japan much easier. It was easy to use, and the trains were clean, comfortable, and punctual. It was great not having to buy separate tickets for every journey. Overall, a smooth and hassle-free experience, and I would recommend it to anyone planning to travel around Japan by train.
5/5
It's worth the price if you plan to visit at least Nara, Hiroshima, Miyajima Island, and transportation to and from the airport. We visited more points of interest, and this ticket covered part of our trip to Kanazawa. I recommend it.
5/5
Very useful pass, I used it for Kandai and Hiroshima, definitely saving money compared to buying individual tickets
5/5
About 3,000 yen cheaper than the official website. We made the most of the opportunity and saved a lot on travel.
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 |

From Hiroshima Shinkansen Station, just turn right and head towards Fukuya, and you'll see the hotel sign – super convenient! To visit the Atomic Bomb Dome, just take tram line 1 to Hon-dori Station, and it's about a 7-8 minute walk from there. Seriously, it couldn't be more convenient!

Initially i wanted to book a hotel somewhere in the downtown. But the breakfast and the dinner here caught my eyes. Also the view of the inland islands.
I stayed 2 nights here, I came from Fukuoka where my plane landed. The taxi fare from hiroshima station to the hotel is about 3000-3500 yen.
There is free hotel shuttle bus but i did not take it. Also, there is public bus stopping right outside the hotel (which i found out later).
Though the hotel is old, it is well kept and clean.
The staff were very eager to assist the guests and there is always a smile on the face.
I was given the 17th floor facing east. But the morning sun was too bright. Though it didnt matter much to me.
Another reason i booked this hotel is they have speed boat counter for Miyajima island. I booked one way there as I have the JR pass for return and I have plans after.
One way ticket from hotel to Miyajima is 2400 yen and return is 4500 yen.
There is a convenience store in the hotel.
But I believe they closes at 2200.
Also, there is hot spring in the hotel.
There is a usage charge for it, but i do not recall the price as i did not use.
I went up to the bar on the 1st night. The view was great. Most importantly the price are reasonable too.
For both days, i ate at the chinese restaurant for breakfast.
1st day was Japanese breakfast set.
2nd day was Japanese buffet style breakfast.
They were delicious.
The western and Japanese buffet breakfast at the top floor were very crowded. But they had more selections.
For my return trip to Beppu, I used the concierge (bell desk) to send my big luggage to Fukuoka. The price was okay.
I took the hotel shuttle bus go Hiroshima station. It was a pleasant ride.
Do take note it is first come first serve and there’s a queue.
I will stay here again, should I come back to Hiroshima.
Thank you.From€ 105

The staff doesn’t speak any English and we had to use Google translation with everyone. We were given the wrong room at first and waited 40 minutes to check-in. The woman didn’t know we had already paid for the room. Then the next day, we asked to leave our luggage before taking the train which they agreed to. And when we returned to gather them, they said they would charge us for this service as we were away for more than an hour. The staff wasn’t very cooperative or nice and wouldn’t let us leave.

The price was really cheap, and the room was a bit small, but perfectly adequate for one person. On the map, it looked close to Hiroshima Station, but it was actually a bit of a walk, and some of the pavements were uneven. If you have heavy luggage, it can be quite tiring to get there. The in-room Wi-Fi was very slow.From€ 68

Hotel is very near the Peace Memorial Park and only steps away from Chuden-mae streetcar stop. It is also within walking distance of the highway bus station at Sogo department store. My room faces the streetcar stop and is just of perfect size to me. The bathroom is a tad small but hey, this is Japan after all where space is a premium. I didn’t add on breakfast. The hotel provides tea and coffee at the lobby (from 06:00 to midnight) and also offers complimentary nightwear and free rental of pillow. The furniture is a bit dated but still functional. I have no complaints at all and would highly recommend especially to solo travellers. And the hotel personnel were so kind and helpful and helped guide me on the streetcars to take to Miyajima and they also sold me the day-ticket. I was able to leave my bags at the lobby before and after checking in and out respectively. To be honest, I’d prepared myself for the worst after reading some reviews but I had a great stay. No regrets!From€ 30
