Amazing. Great hospitality. A bit of a walk from ferry port so would advise a taxi (700Y) if you have a lot of luggage. Otherwise it’s really really close to main attractions.

What a great place this was! If I visit the island again, I'll definitely stay here. The hostel has breakfast and drinks available in the kitchen and beer and sake for a slight charge. Thank you Junya, you were an excellent host.

Home Away from Home
Our group, a family of 9 from Hawaii & California, had a wonderful 2 night stay. The hostel feels more like an inn and is in a great location: on the other side of town, about a 15 minute walk if you know where you're going/have GPS assistance from the ferry. They have a wonderful Japanese bath and several other baths/showers. There are no convenience stores or markets on the island, so the frozen food ($3), sake/beer ($3), soft drinks and breakfast cereals/milk (both complimentary) were very appreciated. There are also a washer and dryer ($3/load), a variety of musical instruments that you can play, wi-fi and tons of travel literature. At the end of the dead-end street is a path that hooks up with the Mt. Misen Ropeway. There are floor to ceiling windows that look onto a small garden where local wildlife--deer and racoon dogs--love to visit (there's a resident indoor cat, as well). The private rooms on the second floor offer wonderful views of the town/water, and also have a sink and small refrigerator. The dorm rooms are on the first floor and are best for shorter stays, since the walls are thin. The owner/hosts are very respectful and accommodating.

Amazing Hostel on Miyajima
I’d never stayed at a hostel before, but this was easily as nice as many hotels. We had a private room (make up your own futon), shared private toilets and multiple shared private bathing options, including a large traditional Japanese bath (water not very hot). There’s cereal, bread, jam, ramen, milk, tea/coffee, and soft drinks for free in the shared kitchen, and frozen food and beer/sake available for a nominal fee on the honor system. We were told there was no curfew, although we were never out past ten or so. It is about a 15-20 walk from the ferry, although very convenient to everything else on the island, so not great if you have a ton of luggage. We had carry-on and were fine. We checked out before 7 am and that was no issue.

Nice and quiet place to relax
Just like the quietness of this island. Away from the crowd and noise. The hotel is within walking distance to the shopping streets and scenic spots. Ideal place to get energise after extended months of work. Haha

Very hospitable place with warm, friendly feeling.
The place is managed by a family who went out of their way to make us feel at home. It is close to all amenities on an an island which deserves a visit by anyone undertaking a trip to Hiroshima.

Inviting guesthouse
We absolutely loved the hospitality that the staff showed us here. There is a large common room with comfortable chairs and sofas where one can make origami, gaze at a lovely Japanese garden and even try your hand at shodō ( Japanese calligraphy) while enjoying free tea and coffee. The bathroom and Japanese bath areas were very clean. We loved the atmosphere, a real Japanese experience. Basic western breakfast (cereal, toast, coffee and tea) is included, or you can cook some ramen noodles or miso soup.

Absolutely wonderful, very highly recommended!
This is the best place we've stayed at so far in our 3 weeks in Japan. The owner was helpful, friendly, kind and accessible; the place itself is easy to find and gorgeous - a traditional ryokan, each room is large and very comfortable. The traditional Japanese bath was great, and we really appreciated the free activities in the living room, the breakfast supplies, and the fact that we could leave our luggage while we traipsed up Mt Misen. We were very sad to leave!

Our best stay over 14 nights in Japan
What a wonderful accommodation find on a delightful island and so easy to get to from Hiroshima (free travel if you have a Japan Rail Pass!). Five rooms upstairs for guests and two downstairs overlooking the garden gave the feel of an authentic small boutique Japanese hotel but it was so easy to make you feel at home! Opened by owner Masaharu Terazawa less than 3 years ago, he should be proud of his achievement and how well the property operates. We stayed only one night and were welcomed by Junior (son) and given a thorough briefing on facilities. The kitchen has everything needed, if self catering, with laundry facilities and shower/bathroom adjacent. Bedroom and sleep quality is excellent being away from the main tourist routes but within 10 minutes walk for convenience. The shared sitting area is great to allow chat with other travellers and there is plenty of tourist information available in the brochures which are kept up-to-date. WiFi is strong everywhere. If you are lucky you will see early morning visitors (deer and raccoons) in the garden. The guesthouse is one of the best I've stayed at anywhere in the world for homeliness, comfort and it's welcome. Thankyou.

Best hostel that I've ever stayed
This is the best hostel that I've stayed. Highly recommended. Japanese style house & room with lots of beautiful decorations. Lots of shower spaces and a free private Japanese style spring. Free snacks, free drinks, & free breakfast. About 10 minutes walk to Torii. Best price among similar hostels. We are thinking about staying in this hostel again for vacation in the futuer.

To be honest I wasn't sure what to expect. But Jun (the host) was exceptional in courtesy as well as in being a host. The place wasn't hard to find (central, just off a quiet residential street). The rooms were charming, clean (as well as the bathroom/shower facilities).

We had a great time at Miyajima Guest House! The rooms are tatami and futon, and the shower is onsen-style, so it felt like a more traditional Japanese experience, which was very memorable for us. The room had a particularly spectacular view of the water and Hiroshima on the other side.

I am very happy that I have booked a room @ Mikunyia! Rooms were very spacious with a very nice views. Our host was most generous and very polite, helpful with instructions and guidance in Myiajima and Hiroshima. He provided us with maps for the island and transportation time tables.

Very comfortable refreshing place to stay. The proprietors are incredibly polite and thoughtful. Facilities are great. Having a kitchen with basic breakfast included is excellent in what can be a fairly expensive location and also limited meal options after dark. The rooms are spotless with a lovely view and having. An onsen that can be booked privately for couples was an unexpected bonus. I'd highly recommend.
