Family-Friendly Hotels in Hiroshima Station Area: Peace Park & Miyajima

When you're choosing a family hotel around Hiroshima Station, it's easy to feel torn between a location that's convenient for sightseeing and a stay that's comfortable for a baby or toddler. Hiroshima Station is the city's gateway, where the Shinkansen bullet train, local JR lines, streetcars, and buses all come together, so getting to Peace Memorial Park, Hiroshima Castle, or the lively Hatchobori shopping district is simple. You can plan your days without a car, which makes this area an easy base for families traveling with lots of luggage.

We feature 10 hotels in this area, mostly city hotels. Rather than looking for a large communal bath like you'd find at a hot spring inn, you'll have better luck choosing based on room comfort and on-site services. The first thing to check is where your little one will sleep: 6 hotels here lend out baby cribs. Hotels like RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima and ANA Crowne Plaza Hiroshima have nursing rooms and formula preparation areas, and they welcome you to bring and warm up your own baby food, so even families with infants can settle in comfortably.

For meals, look for hotels that offer allergy accommodations or have private or semi-private dining rooms. RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima also offers a toddler menu, a kids' buffet, and a children's corner. Hotel Intergate Hiroshima has Japanese-style and Japanese-Western rooms (tatami floors, some with beds) and lends out bed guards, making it a good fit if you want a roomier space with a child who tends to roll around in their sleep. Hotels with a kitchenette, like Hilton Hiroshima and Mercure Tokyu Stay Hiroshima, are handy for longer stays and for making baby food.

Each season brings its own Hiroshima highlights. In spring, cherry blossoms bloom around Hiroshima Castle and Peace Memorial Park; from summer into fall, the ballpark buzzes with professional baseball games; and in winter, the city center glows with illuminations. Venture a little farther and you can visit Itsukushima Shrine on Miyajima island as an easy day trip. Hiroshima Prefecture also has other areas on our site, such as Hiroshima and Miyajima, so splitting your stay between them to suit your itinerary is another option.

Many hotels lend out humidifiers and air purifiers or offer late checkout, which helps in the dry season or on days when you want to leave slowly after your child's nap. The key to choosing a hotel around Hiroshima Station is to compare both ease of getting around and in-hotel amenities.
