Hotel • 4-16 Hironakachō, Kure, Hiroshima 737-0131, Japan
Kure city is a quiet port town facing the Seto Inland Sea. The Hiro Station Hotel Annex, which has continued the history and culture of Kure since the Edo period, is a locally rooted hotel.
The streets of Kure retain the ambiance of the Edo period with townhouses and samurai residences. Walking through the alleyways of Chuo-cho, you will be surrounded by a nostalgic scenery as if time has stood still. On the other hand, modernity has also left its mark, with spots such as the former Naval Academy building where you can feel the atmosphere of that time.
The hotel's breakfast is particular about Kure's ingredients and local cuisine. You can enjoy dishes made with fresh seafood from the Seto Inland Sea and Kure's specialty oyster dishes, savoring the local flavors. The charm also lies in experiencing Kure's food culture through the meals.
From the feedback of the guests, the hotel's charm and challenges are apparent. The favorable location and appreciation for local cuisine are highly rated, but issues such as the small size of the old rooms and aging facilities have been raised. However, the charm of experiencing the history and culture of Kure is still significant.
