Hilton has expanded its portfolio of hotels in
Japan with the opening of the Hilton Hiroshima, the brand’s 600th
hotel worldwide and first
property in the city.
The hotel is located within a 10-minute drive from Hiroshima Station
and within walking distance of the UNESCO World Heritage Site
“Atomic Bomb Dome”, and Peace Memorial Park – which attract more
than 1.7 million visitors per year.
Guests will also enjoy easy
access to major dining, shopping and sightseeing spots such as the
Hiroshima Castle and Itsukushima Shrine with its famous floating torii gate.
The hotel overlooks the cityscape of Hiroshima,
with views of the Seto Inland Sea
and mountains in the distance.

“With Hilton’s extensive experience in Japan,
we are incredibly honoured to partner with Setouchi Brand
Corporation to set a benchmark for hospitality in the region,”
said Timothy Soper, area vice president, head of Japan, Korea, and
Micronesia, Hilton. “Being at the heart of both commerce and tourism, Hilton Hiroshima
has been designed to meet the needs of both leisure and business
travelers alike, as well as visitors attending international
conferences and exhibitions. With Japan set to host the G7 summit
in Hiroshima next year, we look forward to welcoming both
international and domestic guests with Hilton’s signature
hospitality.”
The new-build 420-room Hilton Hiroshima features
one of the largest convention facilities in the region, and can
accommodate MICE events of more than 1,000
people with 19 banquet and meeting rooms offering the latest LED
technology and state-of-the-art AV equipment.
Additional hotel
facilities include four restaurants, an executive lounge, a
wedding chapel, a fitness center, an indoor pool, sauna and the first L’Occitane
Spa to open in the region.
Shin Isaka, Chief Executive Officer, Setouchi
Brand Corporation, said, “As an
international city of peace, there is a strong demand for
Hiroshima to host peace-related academic conferences and
international meetings. The opening of Hilton Hiroshima with
extensive conference facilities in the city center near Peace
Boulevard has been a long-held dream, and this would not have been
possible without the confidence and support our partners, such as
Hilton, have placed in us. We look forward to warmly welcoming
guests from around the world to this new landmark, which will
offer a unique experience of the cuisine, history, and culture of
Hiroshima including the Seto Inland Sea with the Tatobi (the
beauty of multiple islands).”
