Local knowledge for Hiroshima

Where to stay

Most budget hostels cluster around Hiroshima Station (Ekimae exit) and along Hondori, the covered shopping arcade that runs west toward Peace Memorial Park. Both put you on the Hiroden streetcar network, which connects the station, the park, and the Miyajima ferry pier without needing anything else.

Getting around

  • The Hiroden 1-day tram pass covers all city lines including the route to Hiroden-Miyajimaguchi, the pier for the Miyajima ferry. It pays for itself after two or three trips and saves you from fumbling change at every stop.
  • Okonomimura on Shintenchi has around 25 stalls across three floors, all serving Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki. Hiroshima style is layered rather than mixed, and a full plate is very affordable. Good for a filling lunch before Peace Park.
  • Coin lockers at Hiroshima Station fill up by mid-morning during peak weeks. If you have a late Miyajima ferry and need to drop bags after checkout, use the JR locker reservation app the night before rather than showing up and guessing.

When to go

January through early March is the cheapest window. Hostels fill up fast in late March and early April for cherry blossoms at Peace Memorial Park, and again in the first week of August around the August 6 Peace Memorial Ceremony.
