2-Star Hotels in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan

Washing machine available, everything you would expect from a budget friendly capsule hotel, good location, only some of the mattresses in the rooms which were not updated yet would use an exchange since especially towards the middle they aren’t so thick (compared to the sides).

This is a great hostel. The staff are super friendly and helpful. They speak good English and there are many other solo travelers that come here. I met some great people. There's a kitchen too that's well equipped. The bedrooms are also very spacious and comfy. My only downside is being woken up at 10am everyday as the staff come in to clean the rooms from guests that have checked out.

The Santiago Hotel presents itself as the premier option for budget-conscious travelers and sightseers whose main priority is location and convenience in Hiroshima. Situated right in the city center, the hotel offers outstanding value, allowing guests to stay in a clean, private space without the high cost typically associated with such a central location. The primary strength of the Santiago Hotel is its genuinely unbeatable location. Guests can walk to major landmarks, including the Peace Memorial Park and the Atomic Bomb Dome, in just a few minutes. This centrality extends to local life, with easy access to shopping areas and central dining options, such as the famous Okonomi-mura. Furthermore, the property itself is relatively new, having opened or been significantly renovated around 2020, ensuring a clean and modern environment.

I was reluctant to stay in the center of Hiroshima due to the high prices, but I'm glad I was able to stay at a cheap price since it was only one station away from Hiroshima Station. The room was clean and the coffee service in the lobby was nice. However, I had a full schedule and didn't have time to relax. Next time, I would like to schedule a time to relax and drink coffee. There were several connecting trains from Hiroshima Station every hour, so I didn't feel inconvenienced.

I used it because the nearest station in relation to work was Yokogawa. It is also close to the station. It may feel a little hard in midsummer. It's a hotel or really a one-room condominium. Since I stayed for consecutive nights, I washed my underwear by hand and put it around, but the bath was also dry in the bathroom, which was helpful. The bath is the same as home ones, and there is a separate washroom and bathtub. There was a bath towel 1 sheet and a normal size towel 1. I wanted to use the bath towel as a pillow, so I could only use the rectangular ordinary towel for the first night, but it was quite a bit. The next day, I told the front desk that I didn't need a bath towel, so I wanted two ordinary towels, and I was refused. So it might be better for the normal size group to bring in than the bath towel. There is a 7-Eleven nearby, but I used it around 08:30, but there were few rice balls. Overall it was good.

3 minutes from the tram stop, not the kind of hotel that will open a party, everyone is very quiet, the sheets and pillowcases are laid by themselves. There is a kitchen where you can cook and boil water, bring your own dental appliances, and rent 200 yen for bath towels.

The bathroom was very large and comfortable. Breakfast was also convenient with drinks for 200 yen.

I stayed in a capsule-type room, but the bedroom was spacious enough and there was a table and chair where you could eat. There was also a large public bath and manga books. As a welcome drink, you could drink as much sake and chuhai as you wanted, and although they were retort pouches, you could also eat beef bowls and Chinese rice bowls for free. If you register for the app, you could also eat ramen for free. The building itself may be old, but it was well-cleaned and I have no complaints. The breakfast buffet has a wide variety of options, although it costs extra, so it's better to choose a plan that includes breakfast in advance. This is a recommended hotel.

Mainly went out for fun, only came back to the hotel to sleep late at night so it was okay. Enthusiastic staff

The size of the room is OK, it is large in Japan, there is an internal hot spring, breakfast is also very good, although the variety is not so much, but it is very delicious, 5 minutes walk from Sanhara Station, there is also a bus to Hiroshima Airport at the door, 20 minutes to the end, very convenient.
