The bed was untenably uncomfortable and there was just a curtain, rather than a door, on the capsules.

With no air conditioning in the capsules, it gets pretty warm inside. I had to open the curtain slightly to get some draft in. But that made it barely comfortable. Besides that I'm happy overall with the stay. The hotel is right in front of a street car stop so going to hiroshima station was very easy.

Budget friendly, no frills, for the price you couldn't ask for much. Suits the budget backpacker, but probably more geared to the local salary man for an overnight stay. Stayed for the experience, I wouldn't stay for more than 2 nights

The receptionist when we checked in (Rié Sohda) was absolutely lovely! Very high English proficiency and happy to talk with out-of-towners. She recommened us the local Toyo Carp game later that evening, and it was honestly one of my favorite parts of the trip! She made the stay one to remember!!

Everything was great about this property except the high heat settings in the sleeping area. It seemed they could not turn down the heat, must have been around 26 or 27 degrees Celsius inside. They provided me with a small fan, but still needed to strip off all clothes except boxer shorts in order to cope with the heat. It’s unfortunate because everything else at this property was excellent.

Excellent location and cleanliness. The downside of capsule is the communal aspect of the space. If you get a clumsy neighbour like I did, it's gonna be a little noisy.

Looks a bit outdated. Bathroom doesn't look dirty, but doesn't give that clean vibe either. Too many keys between access, locker and shoebox.

Stayed 3 nights. Room and washrooms were very clean and maintained properly. Larger than the typical capsule. Extra space for desk and luggage was helpful. Tram stop is right in front.

Close to shopping district
The private single room is fantastic value. Spacious, comfortable, and including a small desk and lockable cupboard for valuables. Be warned: no lock on curtain-type door, but you can secure valuables. Shoes are left in locker near floor entrance. Spacious wash/make up room and very clean toilet room and separate shower room. Can't comment on capsule rooms but my private room was great. Silence is valued here so mobile phone sounds and talking not encouraged. You can be thrown out if drunk etc. You can't eat once in the sleeping quarters.

The female floor only had private capsules so there was plenty of room. The bed was large and roomy for comfortable sleep, but with no way to adjust the temperature it got hot really fast. Overall it was a good place for the price and I would stay here again.

The comfort room with big space
Although this hotel called capsule hotel, when i'm stay for 2 nights with private room. I'm feel very comfortable, because it's very spacious. i'm really like it, it's really recommended capsule hotel. And the location is perfect, it's near shopping area, okonomimura, hiroshima hotel, and everything. Perfect!

Great Capsule Hotel
Great capsule conveniently located between the main parts of town and the Shinkansen station. Right on a tram line. Place was very clean, and staff was helpful. Bathrooms were spotless. A typically great and reasonably priced Japanese capsule hotel.

Standard capsule hotel...
The rooms are tiny... like, I don't know, capsules? just minimal problem with hot water in shower. I had to put in maximum to have a descent temperature. Maybe Hiroshima was too cold the time I visited.

Ok. Decent. Location was 10 min from station which is nice. Also a 5 min walk from bar areas. Staying here was a good decision by by no means luxurious. It was clean and cheap. You got to keep your same capsule each day so that was convenient.

Capsule hotel Hiroshima
Very cheap room and a different sort of hostel experience. There’s one women’s floor and 3 men’s. The women’s floor only allows private rooms, however you still have a bunk bed capsule situation, it’s just that the other persons pod opens from a different room. There’s also no locks on the doors. Men can choose this or the more traditional rows and rows of pods. The pods get hot at night. Also you can hear people in the corridor or next pod. Luckily they provide ear buds. There’s a shower room with 3 cubicles, toilet room with 4 cubicles and a primping room with sinks and amenities. They provide all amenities you need, I only used my own deodorant and toothpaste. There are other items that you can buy. For $40 for the private pod room it was a great option. Also not far from Hiroshima Station or landmarks, with a tram stop right out front making it even easier. Can get an all day tram ticket for ¥600 from Hiroshima Station.

Clean, quiet and minutes from the station.
Stopped over on my way to Kanazawa. The hotel is clean and modern but all dorms are segregated for women and men. The common area is not much of a common area the bathrooms and showers were spotless. I would say this wouldn't be a place for Westerners but wouldn't rule it out. The pillows are also weird. If you have a travel pillow, bring it.

A Japan Must Experience
Coming from the USA we decided to experience unique things about Japan. Sleeping in a capsule was one of them. Cube Hotel actually surprised us as the capsule was larger than expected and the amenities were ultra modern. The lounge, shower stalls and toilets were super clean. There was no TV in the capsule because it is for sleeping only not entertaining. The mattress was comfortable and I slept well. It sleeps only one person, so this is not suitable for couples who want to sleep in the same bed.

Excellent property
When you get to Hiroshima station, just take a local street car and you will arrive outside in front in a few minutes so access is very convenient. Great location. Close proximity to everything around. Good shopping, food, entertainment, attractions etc. Very clean and new property. Friendly staff. Well equipped facility. Room and area was a bit stuffy with little air ventilation, but they do have a few air machines around. Good strong wifi throughout. Highly recommended. Would stay here again.

I arrived late in night. it is not that far walking to the station. the castle and Memorial is maybe 20 min. further it is in the center. the capsule is nice, but not that many other backpackers for a chat.

Very clean and comfortable
This place exceeded my expectations. Staff were very friendly and speak english. I was able to store my luggage before check-in. The capsules were bigger than I thought. The room, showers and washrooms were very clean. A sleeping attire was provided as well as many necessities (e.g. razor, toothbrush, hairbrush, other toiletries, etc.). A streetcar is right across from it. I would definitely stay here again.
