Review by hotel critic
While I initially felt a hint of hesitation due to the surroundings, the hotel's tucked-away location offered a calming escape and easy access to nearby restaurants and attractions. The spacious double room-one of the largest I've found in Japan-boasted modern amenities like a rain shower and a flat-screen TV, making it perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration. Each morning, I enjoyed a buffet breakfast that catered to various tastes, satisfying my cravings for traditional Japanese fare while also offering Western options. The staff radiated warmth and helpfulness, with locals and business travelers alike finding comfort in this gem of a hotel. Whether you're a traveling foodie like myself or a family seeking a relaxing spot in Hiroshima, Smile Hotel is a fantastic choice that won't disappoint.
