Nest Hotel Hiroshima Hatchobori: Free Bread and Coffee, How to Choose a Small 13–15㎡ Room
Nest Hotel Hiroshima Hatchobori
How to stay here
- About 2 minutes from Ebisu-cho and about 3 minutes from Hatchobori, with convenient transport.
- Free bread and coffee can be taken back to your room.
- Shopping areas, convenience stores and restaurants are close by.
How would I choose?
If you only want bread and coffee for breakfast and mainly spend the daytime out in the city, I would compare this hotel. Transport about 2 minutes from Ebisu-cho and about 3 minutes from Hatchobori is very attractive, while the small rooms and sound are the trade-offs.
Nest Hotel Hiroshima Hatchobori suits people who do not need a big breakfast and want to keep their time for going out. I like the combination of free bread and coffee and a nearby tram stop; the rooms, though, are compact, so two people with large suitcases need to weigh that first and cannot ignore daily sleeping space just because breakfast is free.
How to Choose Room Types: Standard Doubles 13–14㎡, Twins 15㎡
Double rooms are 13–14㎡ and twins 15㎡; I would decide first by whether separate beds are needed, then look at luggage storage. Some guests found the layout practical and suitcases easy to stow, while others felt a double room was too small to open a suitcase; the actual number of bags makes a big difference to how it feels.
The adjoining-room option is two non-connecting rooms, so families who want to look after children at any time cannot treat them as directly connected inside. The 24㎡ universal accessible room is a different arrangement of space and facilities.
I would treat the 13㎡ double and the 15㎡ twin as a choice of “sharing a bed or separate beds”, not as a clear upgrade in spaciousness. A twin guest in July 2026 felt the layout could be used to stow a large suitcase; a double guest in September 2025 felt even one suitcase was hard to open. The two feelings are a good reminder: room type and number of suitcases should be compared together.
| Room type | Size | Main difference |
|---|---|---|
| Double room | 13–14㎡ | Shared bed, compact space |
| Twin room | 15㎡ | Separate beds needed |
| Universal accessible room | 24㎡ | Different space and facilities |
| Adjoining rooms | Two rooms | Non-connecting rooms |

Free Bread and Coffee Suits People Who Like a Light Meal
Free bread and coffee suit people who only want a bite before going out, and can be taken back to the room to eat. In October 2025 a double-room guest liked the taste of the bread, and a twin-room guest praised the hot coffee, tea and bread; others found the taste ordinary. I would treat it as a light breakfast; if you want egg dishes, rice and more hot food, arrange eating out instead.
A twin guest in April 2026 mentioned pick-up from 7:00–10:00; if early transport means leaving before 7:00, this meal cannot be counted into the itinerary. For multi-night stays, you can also alternate between eating in the room and going out for coffee, so every day is not arranged around the same light meal.

About 2 Minutes from Ebisu-cho, About 3 Minutes from Hatchobori
13-12 Noboricho, Naka Ward, 730-0016 Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan
The address is 13-12 Noboricho, about a 2-minute walk from Ebisu-cho tram stop and about 3 minutes from Hatchobori. My itinerary would put department stores, Hondori and Shintenchi eating-out together; Shukkeien gets its own slot, while Peace Memorial Park and the museum get a full visit.
Nearby convenience stores and dining choices are something guests like. Taking transport, buying food beyond breakfast and shopping can all be fitted in, which suits travellers who mainly spend each day outside very well.
For dining, Fukuya Hatchobori main store, Hondori and Shintenchi Okonomimura can be strung into one stretch, so shopping and dinner do not have to be separate trips.

Multi-Night Stays Have Coin Laundry; Quiet Needs Belong in Room Choice
Coin laundry fits multi-night stays; a twin guest in December 2025 also liked checking machine status on the television, and full housekeeping was available as an option at the time. This helps people who do not want to carry laundry downstairs on chance; cleaning options and towels still follow the instructions for that stay.
Sleep reviews differ markedly: a double-room guest in May 2026 reported sound insulation and air-conditioning noise, while in September another twin guest felt a street-facing room was still quiet; in 2025 there were also double-room comments about dust and hair. I would limit these to the room-type experiences at the time; if you are sensitive to sound, request an orientation first, and do not treat “convenient shopping area” as a guarantee that every room is quiet.
