Experience of the stay
I stayed with my child, having heard that there is a lounge exclusive to guests.
The entrance had a self-check-in, but the staff accompanied us and took our picture with an instant camera under the Christmas tree as a gift.
The room wasn't very spacious and felt a bit old, but the bed was comfortable.
The lounge on the 25th floor had different times for enjoying Hiroshima's local sweets, coffee, soft serve ice cream, and soft drinks, as well as happy hour with wine and time for late-night yogurt, making it very fulfilling.
Especially since it was Christmas time, during happy hour, there was a live performance of Christmas songs, which created a wonderful atmosphere.
Also, because it was Christmas season, from the lounge on the 25th floor, we could overlook the Doriminion on Peace Boulevard, and it was very beautiful.
Even outside of the Doriminion season, the night view can be seen towards Ujina, so I think it's pretty.
When booking with HafH, breakfast is not included, but you can pay directly at the restaurant on the same day.
This exceeded my expectations!
You can enjoy small dishes made with Hiroshima's local specialties and also Western dishes like the hotel's beef stew, cutlet sandwich, and French toast, all with a rich variety of desserts, leaving me very satisfied.
Since you can have your meal on the same 25th floor as the lounge, the view was good, and it was a great start to the morning.
Experiences during the trip
This time, we didn't do any sightseeing since we stayed nearby, but I think it's worth seeing the 'Doriminion' held every year during the Christmas season on Peace Boulevard, right in front of the Mitsui Garden Hotel Hiroshima.
I also highly recommend the Vietnamese restaurant Aobaba located behind the Mitsui Garden Hotel.
It offers authentic flavors that the Vietnamese community in Hiroshima gathers to enjoy, and the prices are reasonable too.
It's crowded on weekends, so I recommend making a reservation.
