Hotel Granvia Hiroshima

Frommer's Review

Owned by JR West (and offering discounts to holders of the Japan Rail Pass), this hotel is convenient for short stays because it's connected to the Shinkansen (north) side of the station. Inconvenient, however, is that to get to Hiroshima's sights and streetcars, which are on the other side of the station, you have to navigate a confusing underground passage (if you have a rail pass, you can pass through the station, which is much quicker). Rooms are comfortable but are small and have no view, unless you count views of the Shinkansen pulling into the station. A plus are the hotel's many dining options, including one serving Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki.

Facilities: 9 restaurants; 2 bars; lounge; outdoor beer terrace (summer only); access to health club in Hiroshima Station w/gym, indoor pool, and sauna (discount ticket at concierge desk ¥2,620/$22/£11); concierge; tour desk; business center; shopping arcade; salon; room service (7-10am and 5-11pm); in-room massage; same-day laundry/dry-cleaning service; nonsmoking rooms
