I spend a lot of time in Hiroshima and have stayed at many hotels in the city but this was my first stay at the Sherton because it is often the most expensive of all the hotel choices. I often wondered if it was a good value for the cost. There were many nice elements but at te same time there were many awkward moments. The Sherton obviously caters to a very International clientele. For this reason, I was surprised that the check in process was awkward. For example, instead of asking if we would like to arrange a late check out, the receptionist asked when we would like to leave as if there is an option to leave as late as you would like. It was my birthday and the receptionist presented a small bouquet of flowers to my husband and wished him a happy birthday. We rserved a room on an Executive Floor with Lounge access. The room was large by Japanese standards and had a King size bed. The room was clean. There is a Nespresso coffee machine and a small fridge/mini bar that only contained two cans od Pepsi and two cans of Pepsi Zero. Although I read many reviews regarding the small size of the Club lounge and the limited offerings, I decided to wait and see for myself rather than trust other reviewer's opinions. In this case, I should have trust the other reviewers. It is the smallest lounge in any hotel I have ever stayed at. The offerings were very limited during what they were calling "Tea Time" and "Happy Hour" So is the Marriot a good value for the money, probably not.
