What we dropped
| Property | Verdict | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Hotel Granvia Hiroshima | Runner-up (69/100) | 69 points, one behind the fifth pick. The direct link and the 6,390 reviews are real strengths, but its category scores average 4.38, which held its quality score to two stars. |
| Hotel Kawashima | Runner-up (69/100) | 69 points, one behind the fifth pick. It has a direct link and weeknights of ¥9,000–10,000, but it reached only two stars on quality and three on value and trust. |
| Hotel Crystal Hiroshima | Left out | About five minutes from the north exit, but it does not hold luggage, last check-in is 23:00, and its room score is 3.88. |
| Dormy Inn Hiroshima | Left out | 4.40 across 5,858 reviews, but it is reached by tram from the station, not on foot. |
| 193 hotels | Below the floor | Fewer than 50 reviews, or an average below 4.0. |
Questions visitors ask
Which hotels are actually connected to Hiroshima Station?
One of these five. Hotel Granvia Hiroshima South Gate sits directly above the south exit, with its lobby on the seventh floor of the station building. The other four are walks: Sheraton one minute, Daiwa Roynet about three, Royal Park about eight and Lazuli about 12. Two runner-ups are linked too: Hotel Granvia Hiroshima on the north side, and Hotel Kawashima from the south exit underground plaza.
Which exit should I look for?
It depends on the hotel. Sheraton and Daiwa Roynet are reached from the Shinkansen exit on the north side. South Gate, Royal Park and Lazuli are on the south side.
What about the airport bus?
Sheraton Grand Hiroshima is one minute on foot from the airport limousine bus stop. Rakuten’s listing for the runner-up Hotel Granvia Hiroshima also puts the stop close by.
How do I get to the Peace Memorial Park and Miyajima?
Take the tram to the Peace Memorial Park. Hotel Kawashima’s listing gives 20 minutes by tram, and about an hour to Miyajima by train and ferry. Times from the other hotels depend on your walk to the station.
How much do these cost?
The table shows the cheapest price per person with breakfast, for two sharing, from Rakuten Travel’s availability search for Wednesdays and Saturdays between 14 November 2026 and 6 January 2027. Weekdays start at about ¥7,000 at The Royal Park Hotel Hiroshima Riverside and about ¥13,000 at Lazuli, Sheraton and South Gate. Saturdays can run much higher.
Which one would you book?
Lazuli if a walk of about 12 minutes is fine: it scored 77, level with Daiwa Roynet, and has the highest room score of the seven compared. If you want to step out of the hotel into the station, South Gate is the direct link, from about ¥13,000 per person on a weeknight.
