Hiroshima Kokusai Hotel

Good location close to public transport, with convenient eating/shopping access, and a short walk to the Hiroshima Peace Park & Museum. Several dining options on site - the Spanish-themed bar downstairs was delightful. Staff were very friendly.

Our double room was very stuffy when we arrived, but we figured out how to activate the cooling vent which was a relief (no "how to" guide in the room). However, this only cooled the immediate area near the bed. The bed, being small and hard, was a bit uncomfortable. Especially given it was right next to the cooling vent, so during the night the closest person would get chilled and have to switch it off (until the room became too stuffy again). The walls were very thin - you could hear other patrons clearly down the hall, and you could also easily hear the sounds around the floor's cleaning/maintenance station.
