Residence Yu Tokaichimachi Apartment | 50㎡ Two Bedrooms: How to Split Four Double Beds

Residence Yu has apartments of different sizes around Tokaichimachi, from 25㎡ studios to three-bedroom units of nearly 80㎡. Guest count decides bed needs, and bedroom count decides whether nights can be zoned; look at both together, or the maximum guest count alone may mislead you into thinking everyone gets their own bed.

I would compare these room types separately from the 50㎡ two-bedroom main unit above: for two to four guests with light luggage, a studio of around 25㎡ usually covers basic needs; families needing separate sleeping zones can consider the 50㎡ two-bedroom; groups of ten or more travelling together should look at the 75 or 79.3㎡ three-bedroom options.

The stay is in Naka Ward, Hiroshima City, handy for walking itineraries taking in the Motoyasu River bank, Peace Memorial Park and the Atomic Bomb Dome. This listing puts Peace Memorial Park about 600 m away and the Atomic Bomb Dome about 650 m; if your days all pass through JR Hiroshima Station, factor transfer time and large-luggage carrying into the choice too.

Urban Apartment | 25.1㎡, Two Double Beds, Up to Four Guests

The Urban Apartment is about 25.1㎡, with one bedroom, two double beds, and room for up to four guests. I would list it as light-luggage stays for two adults or a small family: two guests can each have a bed, while four travelling together share beds two to a bed — the point is not the bed count but whether everyone accepts shared sleeping space.

With two or more large suitcases, the 25.1㎡ living flow has to be counted too. Unpacking luggage fully every day and sorting children’s clothes can make the living room and bedroom crowd each other; if days are mostly spent at Peace Park and in the city with the room mainly for rest, the trade-off is easier to accept.

I would recommend it for a two-person trip focused on stay convenience with light luggage, and for three- to four-person family or friends groups who can share beds — not as four mutually undisturbed separate beds just because the room says four guests maximum.

Basic Apartment | 25㎡, Two Double Beds, Up to Four Guests

The Basic Apartment is about 25㎡, also one bedroom with two double beds, for up to four guests. At 0.1㎡ smaller than the Urban Apartment, the difference is almost never enough on its own to choose between them; if both are free at booking time, I would weigh the actual unit’s furniture layout, total cost, and which room-type photos the group prefers.

With four guests, two double beds cover basic bed assignments, but it is still one bedroom; if elders, parents with children, or friends on different schedules want someone to nap quietly while others keep using the living room, compare the 50㎡ two-bedroom option.

For a one-night stay focused on sightseeing, I would choose between this small apartment and the Urban Apartment by the better bed set and smoother check-in; for three nights or more, laundry and storage arrangements still matter, not just the four-guest maximum.

Premium Apartment | 75㎡, Three Bedrooms, Up to Twelve Guests

The Premium Apartment is about 75㎡, split into three bedrooms with five double beds in total plus a living-room sofa bed, listed for up to twelve guests. Against a 25㎡ studio, its biggest value is three assignable sleeping zones: two or three families travelling together can place children, elders, or friends on different schedules where they fit.

If ten to twelve guests really fill it, I would map bed assignments to each person’s sleeping habits first: five double beds mean someone shares, and the sofa bed turns part of the living room into a night sleeping zone. Wanting to eat together and discuss tomorrow’s plan by day, while someone wants an early night, still involves trade-offs.

Splitting a group across three bedrooms is more flexible than everyone sleeping in one room; but three bedrooms do not mean three bathrooms, so bathroom flow still depends on the booked unit’s actual layout. This room type suits large groups willing to share living space while needing separate sleeping zones — not travellers who each want a fully private room.

Deluxe Apartment | 79.3㎡, Three Bedrooms, Up to Fourteen Guests

The Deluxe Apartment is about 79.3㎡, with three bedrooms, six double beds, plus a living-room sofa bed, capped at fourteen guests. Against the 75㎡ Premium Apartment, it is not only 4.3㎡ larger but has one more double bed — for family trips of over twelve needing beds split across bedrooms, that matters more than the area alone.

With six to eight guests, the spare beds leave more room, and the living area is easier to keep for chatting, takeaway meals and luggage; near the fourteen-guest cap, six double beds will mostly still be shared, and an opened sofa bed shrinks the usable living room. With more people, I would agree wake-up, bathing and bedtime order first.

For three generations or several families walking Hiroshima’s city centre together, I lean toward this kind of three-bedroom unit, since elders and children can be given different sleeping zones. But if anyone wants fully independent stays, or each family its own private bathroom, booking several small apartments or ordinary hotel rooms may be more comfortable than putting fourteen people in one unit.

For a one-night short stay, what matters most to me is walking straight in after arrival with beds pre-assigned; for three to five nights or more, the washing machine, simple cooking and a fuller living space matter more. Residence Yu’s listing includes a refrigerator, microwave, electric kettle and washing machine, useful for longer stays — but I would plan use by the actual booked apartment unit and room-type contents.

This listing gives check-in from 3 p.m. and check-out before 11 a.m., with self check-in instructions. When several families arrive separately, handing the confirmed entry information to everyone together beats just remembering the stay name; a building may hold more than one bookable unit, and the room number is what matters at the door.

My final choice would be: light-luggage travellers of two or four compare 25 and 25.1㎡ first; to keep two bedrooms, pick 50㎡; large groups needing three bedrooms compare 75㎡ up to twelve guests, and above twelve, or wanting more double-bed capacity, look at 79.3㎡. Whether you can share beds, and whether anyone sleeps in the living room, is usually more worth discussing than simply raising the guest cap.
