Marumasa 201 | Sakaimachi 90㎡ Group Apartment: Room Division and the Small Shower, Check First
Marumasa 201
How to stay here
- A 90㎡ apartment, good for group gatherings and luggage.
- The Sakaimachi location works well with the Peace Memorial Park and Hondori.
- Guests mention nearby supermarkets, convenience stores, and restaurants downstairs.
How Would I Choose?
If I wanted a 90㎡ group space, I would look at Marumasa 201; guests like the spaciousness and nearby supplies, while the small shower, the step behind a door, and shared routines are the main trade-offs.
Marumasa 201 is at 1-chome-5-3 Sakaimachi, and I would consider it for a family or friends trip with many people. At 90㎡ it puts gathering and luggage needs in one space, suiting groups that value shared living space.
90㎡ of Group Space — Allow Waiting Time for the Shower
Unit 201 is listed at 90㎡, and guests repeatedly praise its spaciousness and cleanliness, with comfortable feedback even for groups of six to eight.
Some travellers find the shower room small. With several people getting ready in the morning and evening, allow waiting time, and everyone’s routines need to work around each other.

Arriving via Dobashi, with Places to Eat Downstairs Too
1-chome-5-3 Sakaimachi, Marumasa Building, Naka Ward, 730-0853 Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan
For arrival, look toward Dobashi, and save the Marumasa Building and Room 201 entry information in advance. Some guests find the location hard to find, so if you arrive with large suitcases or on different schedules, it is best to agree on check-in and a meeting plan beforehand.
I would make the Peace Memorial Park, the Atomic Bomb Dome and the museum the main day, then follow with shopping on Hondori. Guests mention convenience stores and a supermarket nearby, plus an izakaya and a yakitori shop downstairs, so a simple dinner and supplies can be factored in; for Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, pick a meal in Shintenchi instead.

Kitchen and Nearby Supplies Keep Group Meals Flexible
The room has a refrigerator, stove, microwave and electric kettle, so simple meals can be arranged; nearby supermarkets and restaurants also keep dining flexible, without every meal waiting for the whole group to head out together.
With Children, Ask About the Room Layout First
Some guests mention a step behind a door and worry about children opening it on their own; I would ask the management to explain the door’s location and use before bringing small children. Other travellers find nearby coin parking expensive, so drivers should compare parking costs too.
Guests repeatedly praise the spaciousness and cleanliness, with comfortable feedback even for groups of six to eight. For me, this suits groups that value shared space and are willing to agree on room division and living details in advance.

90㎡ for Gatherings, if You Can Accept the Small Shower and the Step
For groups willing to stay together and valuing shared space, I would look at Marumasa 201. The 90㎡ and nearby supplies are very practical; the small shower needs waiting time, and with small children you should also note the step behind a door that guests mentioned, so the stay format fits everyone’s needs.
