Homestays in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan

Nice.ryokan in Miyajima. The ryokan is located quite far up a hill from the station but they provide free transportation to and from the hotel. Both the kaiseki dinner and the breakfast were excellent. The service was impeccable. It is located about a five minute walk from Itsukushima shrine . Room was good with two single beds. Onsen has both indoor and outdoor pool. Would highly recommend this place.

The environment is clean and tidy. The service staff are friendly and speak good English. Some rooms have direct views of the sea. I suggest you share the room with other people, otherwise it would be painful for me to pay HKD 1,000 per night.

For several days after I made the reservation, I contacted them about anything I didn't understand while making plans, and they responded politely, which was really helpful. Although it was a short trip, it was a fun trip with a satisfying stay (^^) I was satisfied with the transportation from the ferry terminal, the hotel, Itsukushima Shrine, and the approach to the shrine. Thank you very much (^^)

I stayed here solo and absolutely loved the experience. The location is super convenient—just a few minutes’ walk from the station, which made day trips and late arrivals stress-free. The hostel has a warm, minimalist Japanese aesthetic, and the common area is cozy and social without being noisy. Staff were friendly and spoke good English, and the check-in process was smooth. The dorm beds had privacy curtains, reading lights, and lockers—perfect for solo travelers. Everything was clean and well-kept. Highly recommend if you’re traveling alone and want both comfort and convenience.

Initially we booked the wrong night by mistake. I immediately had sent letter to the host, just 2 minutes after that mistake. And at first, host said, that they would refund without any problems, but after that he turned down our ask for refund and offered only date change, which was the problem, because the price was 2.5x more on the dates, that we needed and we would never stay at the place so expensive. In the end we had to make additional payment to stay for only one night, just to not loose the first money transfer. And host refused to talk about why he changed his initial position and what is wrong with the refund 2 months prior to the stay. Even that we had assured him, that it was really a mistake (confused ”mar” and ”may” in the app) and sent him our plane tickets,. He also told us, that he can't give us refund, because he prepared the room and because of the booking he couldn't rent room to another person and lost money, which I find highly unlike, since the first response from him was very quick and the wrong booking was made 2 hours before midnight, so it's very unlikely, that someone else would rent it. Overall, I don't think that it could be considered as hospitality. The place itself is nice, if booked for an appropriate price. Don't expect luxury, but a simple, spacious room with a balcony and a view on the road and trees.

The counter attendant is fluent in English, the room is traditional Japanese decoration, the view is very beautiful. Although the room has a place for luggage, it is recommended to lock the luggage at the JR station and carry a backpack up the mountain considering the journey up the mountain. Disadvantages, the shared shower room has only two grids, you may need to wait in line, the quilt mattress will be slightly more dusty, the room is poorly soundproofed and other Japanese old building problems. But the CP value is very high for the scenery at this price, it is worth experiencing for one night.

Amazing location close to all the major sites on foot. The hosts are helpful and friendly and kitchen + rooftop a nice addition.

As the only option on the island, although the hotel is quite historic, it offers quality services and well-maintained facilities. Both breakfast and dinner are Japanese buffets, and I think the taste is pretty good. The hotel also arranges special activities, where you can watch sea firefly at night. Although you don’t go to the beach, it is still quite special. Rabbits can be found all over the island, especially near the hotel, where you can see them even from your room.

Good place and near to the convenient stores.The place is so perfect for the family.my kids enjoyed the projector,but there is no elevator.we carried our big luggage going to second floor.No free car parking but have a nearest coin parking.check out time is so early 10am.I suggest to make it 11am because some of the guests have a kids hard to wake them up early,especially if you are a tourist.

Everyone of the employees will respond very comfortably, and in a good sense, if you don't want to interfere, watch over gently and follow with casual service. I didn't eat dinner, but the breakfast was a delicious and varied buffet. I was also happy with the service of yukata where you can choose the color pattern and the service where you can always have hot drinks.
