THE KNOT Hiroshima
Enjoyed our stay here and it was a great location the only issue we had with our stay was there was no place for suitcases really. If you had one suitcase then you would be fine using the lounge sofa but if you have more than one suitcase it becomes more of a challenge. There was hangers but no drawers ...

The room was lovely and clean, it’s a bit tired but has everything you need and the toiletries were great. We have a corner room so the view was amazing.
