Homestays in Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan

I had a great stay at this hostel! The rooms were clean and comfortable, the location was perfect It felt relaxed from the moment I arrived. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to other travelers!

Definitely the best hostel I stayed at during my 2-week trip to Japan! The mattress is firm and comfortable (unlike many hostels in Japan that use futon-style bedding), so I slept very well. The soundproofing is good, and the location is convenient, with the train station nearby. Highly recommended! There’s also a small local eatery less than a 5-minute walk away where I enjoyed a delicious home-cooked meal for only 500 yen - such a great find!

This was my first time staying here. The staff member who helped me was incredibly friendly and kind. We had a family member in a wheelchair, and they welcomed us warmly. Thanks to them, we had a very comfortable stay in the family room, even though it was just a room-only booking. Although we drove this time, the hotel is close to the station and surrounded by many shops, which was very convenient. Parking right in front of the entrance was a huge help, though it requires prior arrangement. The room itself was simple, cozy, and I absolutely loved it. I'd definitely like to stay here again if I have the chance. Thank you!

The hostel is a nice space to stay and hang out in. The staff were actually present and chatty which was a pleasant surprise in Japan. The location is a lil out of the town centre but everything was walkable. They have lots of local brewed beers at the bar which is nice (and you can visit the brewery at the weekend for a pint which is fun) If you do pass through I 100% recommended renting a bike even just for the day and cycling Mukaishima island - it was such a lovely day of my trip (Les DixSept Bateaux was one of my favourite cafes/lunches of Japan) Thanks for a nice stay!

Awesome if you’d like to experience staying in a traditional Japanese home — no shoes inside, sliding doors, futons over tatami, and even an inner courtyard. Everything was clean, and our room had its own shower (though the toilet is shared). The hosts were very welcoming and spoke fluent English. We also appreciated the three bottled waters provided, something we didn’t get at our previous hotels. The kitchen is well equipped. The location is just okay — about a 10-minute walk to the train/tram/ferry station. Along the way, there aren’t any shops or restaurants until you reach the station area.

The place was quite clean, and the service was excellent. Laundry is super affordable at 200 yen, significantly cheaper than other hostels which typically charge 300-500 yen. They also have a dryer, so rainy days aren't an issue. The only drawback is that it's a wooden, detached house (not reinforced concrete), so the sound insulation isn't the best. Guests need to be mindful of their footsteps; walking heavily could lead to thumping noises audible downstairs, potentially causing complaints. Furthermore, showering is generally not permitted after midnight, as the sound of running water can disturb those on lower floors. Also, guests are required to make their own beds (sheets, pillowcase, duvet cover) upon arrival, and strip them off, placing them in the designated laundry basket upon check-out. If you're unwilling to do this or find making your own bed a hassle, you might want to consider booking elsewhere.

Close to Onomichi Station, there are also convenience stores nearby, and the service is very good

Incredible traditional Japanese house, newly renovated with everything you need for comfort. The kitchen is extremely well-stocked for us to prepare our own meals. The garden is beautiful and you can enjoy ocean view and sunrise from the house, there’s even a blooming Cherry Blossom tree in the garden. Just a tip to keep the sliding doors closed properly because mosquitoes do get in. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay.

It was a small, cute dormitory. Maybe you can feel a little cottage-like with a wood-like wall? There is also a room for women only, and the pass code is required for entering the room, so I was able to spend my time with peace of mind even if I traveled alone.

We arrived by bike. The location was good for us, however there is nothing around. You may go to a good restaurant which it is 2 km far away. The host is very friendly and he will explain you everything in English. The place is a traditional Japanese accommodation, but it is old and cleaning has to be improved. The view is great and the place very peaceful.
