Mitsui Garden Hotel Hiroshima

Great location, but the rooms are a bit compact.

I have stayed in Hiroshima City several times, but this was my first time using the Mitsui Garden Hotel (Standard Single). Although it is a bit far from Hiroshima Station, it is located in the city center and I found it convenient. As explained at the front desk, the building has centralized air conditioning, so the room felt a little warm. After entering, I turned off the air conditioning for a while to adjust the temperature. The roller blind was closed, and my first impression was that the room felt slightly dark. The bath/toilet/sink are in a unit-style bathroom, so it feels a bit compact. It seems suitable for business use focused mainly on sleeping, but if you want to relax and spend more time at the Hotel, you may find it somewhat lacking. On the other hand, I was satisfied with the bed and amenities. It was also nice that two Ito En mineral waters in aluminum cans were provided. Also, perhaps because there are many rooms, they were not able to accommodate early access before check-in time.

Considering the price, we were satisfied with both the Room and the meals. The breakfast in particular was excellent.

Breakfast Venue

Seating is open, but the seat we chose was in front of the coffee and other drink station. It was too narrow, and several guests bumped into the legs of my husband’s chair on the aisle side, making it difficult to eat comfortably. There are two bench-sofa booths by the center window, and we wished we could have moved to one of those. The serving staff also pass through there, so it feels cramped. We stay here once or twice a year to watch Carp games and always enjoy the delicious breakfast, so this was disappointing. Please consider this for improvement. Thank you to the serving staff for your hard work early in the morning.
