Guest Houses in Hiroshima

88House is filled with authentic charm and a homely warm aura. From the moment you open the front door you are greeted with a beautiful garden and open green spaces to explore within the grounds. We were very late to check in (about 11pm), and the owner Kengo-san waited up for us in order to show us to our room and give us a clear explanation about how to use the facilities. We sincerely appreciated that. Our room was spacious, clean, and very calming to rest in. Heating AC in the room was a godsend for the cold nights, and the showers had hot water and a modern WC with bidet. There is also a shared kitchen to prepare your food and throw trash. There’s a lot to appreciate and admire in 88House Hiroshima. From the beautiful Yukimi shoji doors in the rooms that lets in the natural daylight whilst still retaining privacy, to the beautiful wooden beams and rafters and wooden light fixtures. A lot of interesting books and ornaments adorn the walkway, and there’s even a small section of kids toys to entertain the little ones. Kengo-san has made sure to leave lots of flyers and pamphlets of events/exhibtions, and a variety of things to do and explore in the area, so check the table near the entrance genkan. There is a lot of greenery around you and a small stream outside the property, as well as Kengo-san’s sweet potato fields. Kengo-san is very friendly and my partner and I are very thankful to have had a chance to stay in his home. We highly highly recommend staying here if you are in Hiroshima and want a slice of Japanese home living away from the city. We hope to come back and stay again, and I hope Kengo-san can bring us for that hike up the mountain behind his house to see the Kannon statue!

The lady who greeted me (I never asked her name, sorry!!) was absolutely lovely and very helpful. Even though I arrived around 10:15 pm, she was there to give lots of helpful information. The bed was comfy and the room was very nice. The food in the restaurant was also delicious! Aside from the guesthouse, the neighbourhood was wonderful. It felt so nice and quiet, and the nearby Mitaki-dera was beautiful! I started my first morning with a walk around the temple and then a hike up to the top of Sokayama, which had a beautiful viewpoint.

Blanc Guesthouse is a beautiful hotel in Hiroshima. The owner and staff are absolutely wonderful, very helpful and accommodating for all your needs. The beds are very comfortable and have multiple privacy blinds. The common space is large with a full sized kitchen and plenty of cooking utensils. I highly recommend staying at this hostel if you stay in Hiroshima 10/10!!!

Very clean near to Hiroshima station, staff very helpful.

Very close to electric tram. Facilities was clean

Great guesthouse with dorms and private rooms right in the center of the city. Highly recommended.

Everything you need. Excellent for groups.

One of the highlights of our visit to Japan. Beautiful property with a lovely courtyard/garden. Quiet street relative to the main touristy stretch, though close and easy to find. The best part was the owner/host, a wonderful and kind person. He made our stay very comfortable, gave restaurant recommendations, and provided a delicious breakfast. He also showed genuine interest in us and where we were from; our interactions were cheerful.
