Santiago Guesthouse Hiroshima

A great value for money. Bed was cozy. The common area was huge with kitchen, dining area. A great place to socialize people from different countries I would say. I did feel they should provide information about parking.

Guesthouse Santiago was a fun stay, moreso due to coincidences then any particular action by staff. The hostel was not expensive and I feel like I got great value for money. The location, while not next door to any public transit, isn't far from it. Additionally, it is quite close to a lot of popular attractions, restaurants, and shops, with the added plus that Hiroshima itself is very walkable. The Hostel was very clean, and I have nothing negative to say in this department. Staff were quite friendly when engaged, but it was hard to determine who did and didn't work there, and despite what looked like a lot of staff on-hand, there were no events or activities for guests. The facilities were great, with multiple private showers, decent beds, multiple tvs and a comfy lounge/social area. Their kitchen is very nice, if a little cramped. The worst part about this hostel is just the lack of the social aspect to it. It was not uncommon for there to be 5+ individuals just sitting around, checking phones and having relatively little to do. A couple of in-house activities or mild interaction with guests would go a long way, in my opinion.

Stayed 5 Nights: 7-12/11/2025. Despite you have to make your own bed, it is generally clean and I didn't experience any discomfort during my stay. Individual curtains also exist around each bed, so it has a privacy level similar to a capsule hotel. The common space is available before your check in and the same day on your checkout date. There are also amenities such as coffee machines and a microwave oven. Perfect for a relaxing trip.

It's a guesthouse so you would expect some noise or some loud guests, but this is terrific. The note says no noise after 11pm, but guests were playing cards and drinking in the dining area which kept us with no place to eat and they were so loud and the staff didn't say anything. No amenities, you gotta pay for the towel. The only good thing is the location, we didn't use any transportation.

I had a great stay at this hostel! The rooms were clean and comfortable, the location was perfect It felt relaxed from the moment I arrived. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to other travelers!

The hostel was centrally located and easy to reach. Even though I arrived early, they kindly let me leave my bag and take a shower. The common area was sufficient, the bed was comfortable, and overall, everything was clean.

Highly recommend Santiago Guesthouse Hiroshima. You couldn't be in a more perfect spot yet just far enough away you can't hear the noise of the main strip. The staff were lovely, the common area had a great vibe, the beds were comfortable and the overall energy in the building was beautiful. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a quailty yet affordable place in the heart of Hiroshima!

One of the nicest shared facilities hostels I've stayed at. Run by a really nice group of young people.*Shout out to Mario* The location is excellent, making it easy to enjoy Hiroshima's attractions. Peace Park, Ondo Onsen even the Miyajima Ferry are easily accessible.
