Sheraton Grand Hiroshima Hotel
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Worth booking if you want a 5-star hotel with a spa and pool directly connected to Hiroshima's train station, ideal for day trips by Shinkansen. Skip it if you want to walk out to the Peace Memorial Park, which is about 30 minutes on foot, or if you dislike crowded breakfasts.

The Sheraton Grand Hiroshima is our Luxury pick in the city. It suits travellers moving around Japan by rail: guests say it is connected to the train station, with immediate access to the Shinkansen, local trains, trams and buses. It also suits anyone who wants on-site facilities such as a spa, pool and gym.
If your trip centres on the Peace Memorial Park and you want to walk there every day, a hotel closer to it may suit you better. Our Budget pick is named for that area.
Location and getting around
The address is Higashi-ku Wakakusa-cho 12-1, and the location score is 9.6. Hiroshima Castle is about 1.8 km away, around 23 minutes on foot. The Hiroshima Peace Memorial is about 28 minutes, and the Peace Memorial Park about 30 minutes.
Those walks are possible but long, and they are straight-line estimates, so real routes will take more time. Given the station connection, most guests will use the trams or buses guests mention; we cannot confirm specific routes, so check before you go.
What guests say
The score is 8.8 out of 10 from 1,473 reviews, sharing second place among the 9 hotels compared. The station link is the clear highlight: easy access to shops, restaurants and every kind of transport.
Breakfast is the sore point. The buffet is tasty with wide variety, but seating is often crowded and queues are long. Room size, noise and renovation condition were not assessed in our data.
Price and how it compares with our other picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 November, 2 adults, one room) was €299.26 a night, about €599 in total. The sample median was €88.67, so this is more than three times the typical rate. It is not a live quote; check today's price for your dates.
Our Budget pick, HOTEL MYSTAYS Hiroshima Peace Park, was about €80.69 a night with a score of 8.2. Our Best Value pick, Hotel Vista Hiroshima, was about €93.11 with 8.9, slightly above the Sheraton. Both are 3-star. The premium here pays for the 5-star category, the facilities and the station connection, not a higher guest score.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 9 eligible hotels in Hiroshima. For the Luxury slot, official 5-star hotels come first. The Sheraton pairs that rating with an 8.8 score and a 9.6 location score.
Listed facilities include a spa, pool, gym, restaurant, terrace, free Wi-Fi and air conditioning. Availability, opening times and any fees must be checked for your dates.
Before you book
Confirm whether breakfast is included and plan to go early to avoid queues. Check pool and spa hours and any charges. Read the cancellation terms and room details, which were not assessed. Then compare today's price with the November 2026 reference, since the gap to our other two picks is large.
