Aki Grand Hotel 安芸グランドホテル

The "floating" torii gate is one key symbol of Hiroshima (広島), and perhaps Japan as well. We chose to stay at Aki Grand Hotel & Spa (安芸グランドホテル), that was opposite the island of Miyajima (宮島).

Train ride was about half an hour from Hiroshima. The hotel was just about 10+ min from the station by foot. But there was hotel shuttle every 30 min as well. The hotel was pretty big. We were greeted by a very friendly hotel manager that was fluent in English.

We had a room with both beds and futon. And from our room, we could see the great Torii. But alas, it was still under renovation, with no clear date that when the works would complete.
