We were not able to stay here because it was not wheel chair accessible. However, the manager went out of her way to find us another hotel that was wheel chair accessible. It looked clean and comfortable. Hospitality was wonderful.

Peaceful convenient hotel away from downtown
Room was larger than your typical Japanese business hotel but just as clean and welcoming. There isn't too much around, but there's a 7-11 right next to it and it's just a 1-2 minute walk from the Higashihiroshima train station. It's very quiet, the wifi is good, and there are laundry facilities (or services if you don't want to wash your clothes yourself). There are free drinks in the dining area (coffee, tea, water, juice). Speaking of which, the breakfast was really nice. Not too many western options but there were eggs and sausages with an assortment of breads/pastries. There was also rice, noodles, fish, meatballs, and yogurt, cereal, miso soup, and the aforementioned drinks. A very nice hotel which I would stay again but it always seems to be booked. But for good reason. =)

Free child policy.
The free child policy is a little misleading. The rooms are designed to accommodate two adults. The free child was accommodated by the addition of a full size roller bed into a room already filled with a double bed. The result was one giant bed. The free child does not get a towel or pillow and is suppose to share the towel and pillow of one of the adults. The fee for the additional items was insignificant, 100 yen per item per day; however, the additional fees weren't explained at the time of booking. The hotel staff were the best. The patiently explained to me at least a dozen times the free child policy before I comprehended what it was. Again they were the best. The in-house restaurant was very good and reasonably priced. The hotel is a "salary-man" hotel for business travelers. This isn't to say it wasn't a nice hotel.

Good alternative for Hiroshima staying
The hotel is very close to the Shinkansen station. So if you travel with JR Pass it's just 12 min from the Hiroshima station and could be even more comfortable when any hotel in the city. Great breakfast. The room was bit small for 3 people.

Convenient hotel with large rooms.
Large room was very similar to a hotel chain in US and was very comfortable and quiet. The only things which we didn't like were the pillows which were so hard and the bed cover which was made of a shiny man made material.

Good hotel but quite far from city centre
This hotel is at the Higashihiroshima JR station, about a 15min ride away from the Hiroshima station where all the interesting things are. The trains run only once an hour so you have to plan your day. Aside from that, the hotel itself is very good. Our room was the biggest we had stayed in during the entire duration of our Japan trip, and you get breakfast included.

Great hotel.
I stayed here solo for 2 nights. It was my first time in japan and it gave a very good impression. The receptionist spoke good English and explained where the free razors and combs etc were. The room was perfectly clean and comfortable and had everything I needed. Having a fridge was great and the bath was awesome. It is 2 minutes walk from the train station to get to the city centre. Train ride takes about 15 minutes. The localation is lovely with the mountains and rice fields and traditional houses out the train window. 711 next door has everything you might need and they speak english too.
