Hotel Intergate Hiroshima
Impressive! Also in great area. Easy to get around. We were tourist and used the hop on hop off bus which came very close to hotel. Also close to McDonald’s. We liked Japanese food but needed a little taste of home after 3 weeks.

Grandvrio Hotel Miyajima Wakura
Excellent Hotel with lots of amenities and a wonderful onsen/ sauna. Great location for catching the 20 minute ferry to Miyajima island which is a beautiful, must visit. Going to peace museum is a lot more of a trek / train ride but it’s not too bad. Highly recommend!
