We had a great stay in Hiroshima. VIAINN is only 5 minutes from Hiroshima station. The rooms are clean & the staff very courteous & helpful.
Hiroshima is a major station so all the shop’s & restaurants are there for travellers convenience.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was exceptional, clean facility, excellent location!!
Super convenient for arriving by train (3 minute walk) and leaving by plane (3 minute walk to bus). Also easy transportation options for seeing the town.
Hotel is well-located near Hiroshima Station and amenities are generally satisfactory - however, the staff’s service attitude can be improved. Interactions are cold and felt like mere procedural formalities, with barely any smile or efforts to make (foreign) guests feel welcome. This is my second stay at a Via Inn and regrettably I've felt this way previously too. There are better hotels to stay at.
Super close to Hiroshima station which was really convenient for us. Staff were nice and helpful. The baggage storage is a great service as we had a late train back to Tokyo and wanted to do stuff around the city without hauling our luggage around.
A lovely hotel with lovely staff.
We got there early and they put our bags int the lockers provided.
You also get offered a free breakfast and their restaurant is very good with many options and great service.
Their rooms are good but fairly small like many hotel rooms in Japan.
The staff are very good and even looked after our bags when we checked out and had time to spare before our train.
The train station is extremely close to the hotel which is great for heavy luggage etc.
Would I stay here again. Most definitely!

Liked: Room comfort
The hotel offered us the opportunity to visit more sites due to its location.
Decent choice in Hiroshima. The staff was somewhat less friendly than in other Japanese hotels, and most of the reception staff could not speak any English. The location is perfect - 3 minutes walk from the Hiroshima station. The room was somewhat small even for city-center standards, and the bathroom was really tiny and uncomfortable.
Very decent hotel, had everything needed. The hotel staff were incredibly helpful when I needed to make a call to my next stay in Okinawa. Great location, right next to the Hiroshima Station.
The hotel is strategically placed, within walking distance of the Hiroshima Station. There are also 2 convenience stores across the road.
The room is also roomy & comfortable, with a table & 2 chairs.
