Elegantly decorated hotel. Rooms were very clean and large by Japanese standards. Conveniently located in downtown Hiroshima and 5 minutes drive from the main tourist spots, eg. Peace memorial Park. I arrived early and they allowed me to check in early without imposing an extra charge, although they mentioned this was an exception - indicating flexibility. Good value for money as well (but it's possible that hotels in general are cheaper in Hiroshima compared to Osaka and Tokyo).

This is a very good hotel, with very nice rooms, good service and close to shops and restaurants. Unfortunately when booking with Agoda, there was no distinction between smoking and non smoking rooms, and we were allocated a smoking room. I can not sleep in smoking rooms, so we asked to be changed. There were no non-smoking rooms available for the nights we were staying, so they gave us an upgrade to a suite costing double the original room rate, at no extra cost.
Agoda needs to distinguish between smoking and non smoking rooms. If booking with Agoda again, I will be careful to add it as a special request on the booking form. It is not acceptable to be put into a smoking room. It's strange in Japan that you can still smoke on trains, in hotels and restaurants, but there are no smoking signs everywhere prohibiting smoking on the footpath!

Caught street car from Shinkansen Station to Hotel. Nice hotel with great location right on Peace Boulvard easy 5 min walk to the Peace Monument Park. Rooms small, but we are on 20th floor with a great view. Bathroom is a prefab unit and small but clean and relatively new. Hard husk filled pillows. Breakfast included but all the hot food (eggs, sausages etc) is cold and no black tea option only green tea or coffee.
