The hype
Travelers are obsessed with the ocean views and the Miyajima ferry convenience, but frustrated by the isolation and extra charges for facilities.
Grand Prince Hotel Hiroshima
$100-250/ 박
다음의 경우 예약하세요 You want a front-row seat to the Seto Inland Sea and a fast-track ferry to Miyajima, and you don't mind being held captive by the hotel's location.
사람들이 좋아하는 이유
- Direct high-speed ferry to Miyajima from the hotel pier (26 mins)
- Floor-to-ceiling ocean views that actually live up to the marketing photos
- Peaceful isolation on Ujina Island, surrounded by a national park forest
한눈에 보기: A stunning visual experience trapped in a culinary food desert with 1990s carpet energy on the lower floors.
@nawfanurie님의 리뷰: I stayed here for the Miyajima access and was blown away. Waking up to the Seto Inland Sea view is magical, and hopping on the boat from the hotel pier made sightseeing effortless. It's the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure.

Reality check
The 'Standard' rooms feel like a time capsule from 1994—faded carpets, scuff marks, and a stale smell are common complaints.
- You plan to spend a full day at Miyajima and want the easiest commute possible
- You prefer a quiet, resort-style sunrise over city nightlife
- You are driving (parking is reasonable at ~1,000 JPY/night)
청결 & 유지관리
8.5
- Housekeeping: Diligent and typically Japanese-standard (high), but they fight a losing battle against the age of the carpets in standard rooms.
- Bathroom hygiene: Bathrooms are scrubbed clean, but older units have grout discoloration and dated fixtures.
- Maintenance: Renovated floors are pristine. Standard floors show scuffs on walls and worn furniture edges.
- Linens & towels: Crisp and clean, though the towels in standard rooms can feel a bit thin compared to the Club floor plushness.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells fresh. Non-renovated smoking rooms (and even some non-smoking ones) can have a faint 'stale' or musty odor.

예약 전에
알아둘 사항
- The on-site convenience store (1st floor) is your lifeline—stock up on snacks before it closes (usually 11 PM or 1 AM depending on season).
- The 'Seto-no-Yu' onsen fee is per visit, not per stay, so plan your soak wisely.
- Breakfast at the top-floor lounge has a view that beats the food—go early to snag a window seat.
준비물
- Snacks and cup noodles (seriously, there is no 7-Eleven nearby)
- Running shoes for the Motoujina Park coastal trail
- Motion sickness meds if you plan to take the high-speed ferry to Miyajima
객실 지니
최고의 선택
- Club Floors (18-19F) for renovated interiors and lounge access
- Setouchi Resort Floors (11-15F) for a modern, beach-house vibe
- Ocean View rooms (south-facing) for the best sunrise/sunset over the islands
피해야 할 객실
- Standard Floors (4-10F) — these are the 'dated' rooms with wear-and-tear complaints
- City View rooms on lower floors if you want the signature sea experience

자주 묻는 질문 및 숨은 팁
예약하기 전에 실제로 알고 싶은 모든 것.
Is the shuttle bus reliable?
Yes, it runs reliably from the Shinkansen Exit of Hiroshima Station, but the schedule is sparse (roughly once an hour) and ends shockingly early (last bus ~7:20 PM).
Can I walk to the Atomic Bomb Dome?
Absolutely not. It is a 7km distance. You need to take the hotel bus to the station and then a tram, or a direct public bus (No. 21) which takes about 40 minutes.
Is the pool free?
No. The outdoor pool is seasonal (summer only) and charges a fee. The indoor pool is part of the spa complex and also costs extra.
Does the hotel have a tattoo policy?
Yes, a strict one. Guests with tattoos are generally prohibited from using the public onsen and pool. Cover-up stickers *might* be accepted in rare cases, but don't count on it.
Is it worth paying for the Club Floor?
Yes. It usually includes breakfast, afternoon tea, cocktail hour, and—crucially—often waives the gym/onsen fees, making the math work in your favor.
How do I get to Miyajima?
Walk out the back door to the hotel pier. The high-speed boat takes 26 minutes and costs ~2,000 JPY one way. It's the fastest, most scenic route.
내부자 팁
- ✨
If you miss the hotel shuttle, look for the public Hiroshima Bus #21 (Ujina Line)—it stops right at the hotel and runs later than the shuttle.
- ✨
The 'Seto-no-Yu' onsen has an outdoor bath that overlooks the sea; go at sunrise for a magical, solitary soak.
- ✨
You can rent bicycles from the hotel to explore the surrounding island—it's flat and scenic.
가기 전에 알아야 할 5가지
💡The 'Prince' brand is huge in Japan, but this specific property feels like two different hotels: a luxury resort on the top floors and a budget conference hotel on the bottom.
💡The 'City View' is actually quite industrial at night—you're looking at a port city, not a glittering metropolis.
💡The on-site restaurants are priced for captive audiences; expect to pay 30-50% more than in the city.
💡The hotel is a popular wedding venue; expect to see brides in kimonos in the lobby on weekends.
💡There is a hidden path from the hotel directly into Motoujina Park's primeval forest.
