Top 5 Hotels in Hiroshima With In-Room Washer and Dryer for Families

Hiroshima hotels with washer and dryer facilities can make family travel much easier, especially on longer stays with children.

Hiroshima has several excellent apartment-style and extended-stay hotels designed with families and longer trips in mind. Some provide a true washer-dryer machine inside the room, while others combine an in-room washing machine with a bathroom drying system.

In this guide, I’ve selected five of the best options for families who want to do laundry privately and conveniently during a stay in Hiroshima.

Important: Laundry equipment varies by hotel and sometimes by room category. A “dryer” may be a washer-dryer combo or a bathroom clothes-drying system, so I’ll point out the exact setup for each property.

5 Best Hiroshima Hotels With In-Room Laundry at a Glance

Hotel In-Room Laundry Best For
Mercure Tokyu Stay Hiroshima Washer-dryer in every room Best overall for families
FAV HOTEL Hiroshima Heiwa Odori Washer-dryer Families of up to 6
FAV HOTEL Hiroshima Stadium Washer-dryer Families wanting Hiroshima Station access
GRAND BASE Hiroshima Ekimae Washer + bathroom drying system Apartment-style stays near Hiroshima Station
GRAND BASE Hiroshima Hikarimachi Selected rooms: washer + bathroom drying system Families wanting extra space and a kitchen

If being able to wash and fully dry clothes automatically inside the room is your priority, Mercure Tokyu Stay Hiroshima and the FAV HOTEL properties are the easiest choices. At the GRAND BASE hotels, clothes can be dried using the bathroom drying system rather than a separate tumble dryer.

1. Mercure Tokyu Stay Hiroshima — Best Overall for Families

Mercure Tokyu Stay Hiroshima is my top overall choice for families who specifically want to do laundry inside their hotel room.

Every guest room includes its own washer-dryer and microwave, so you do not need to select a special room category just to get laundry facilities. Many of the larger rooms also include a mini kitchen, making the hotel particularly practical for families and longer stays.

Why I Recommend It

  • Washer-dryer in every room: Laundry can be washed and dried without leaving your room.
  • Family room options: Larger room categories can accommodate up to four guests.
  • Kitchen options: Many rooms include a mini kitchen as well as a microwave.
  • Central location: Convenient for sightseeing around central Hiroshima and easy access to the streetcar network.
  • Newer property: The hotel opened in 2026 with modern residential-style rooms.

Best Room for Families

The Privilege Family room is the strongest choice for larger families. It provides substantially more space than a typical Japanese city hotel room and accommodates up to four guests, while still including the in-room washer-dryer and kitchen facilities.

Best For

Families on a multi-city Japan trip, longer stays, and anyone who wants to pack fewer clothes and do laundry whenever it is convenient.

Family travel tip: An in-room washer-dryer is especially valuable halfway through a longer Japan itinerary. Plan Hiroshima as a two- or three-night stop and you can reset your family’s laundry before continuing by Shinkansen.

2. FAV HOTEL Hiroshima Heiwa Odori — Best for Larger Families

FAV HOTEL Hiroshima Heiwa Odori is designed more like a compact apartment than a conventional Japanese business hotel, making it especially useful for families who need extra sleeping space and in-room laundry.

Rooms are spacious by Japanese city-hotel standards, and several room types accommodate up to six guests. In-room washer-dryers and kitchen facilities make it much easier to manage meals and laundry during a multi-night stay.

Why I Recommend It

  • Washer-dryer: Do your family’s laundry privately inside the room.
  • Rooms for up to six: A particularly useful option for larger families who would otherwise need two hotel rooms.
  • Kitchen facilities: Rooms include useful cooking equipment, a refrigerator, and microwave.
  • Family amenities: Children’s items such as bed guards and baby-related equipment are available, subject to availability.

Location

The hotel is in central Hiroshima near Heiwa Odori. It is not directly beside Hiroshima Station, but the location works well for sightseeing around central Hiroshima, the Peace Memorial Park area, shopping, and restaurants.

Best For

Families of four to six, longer stays, and travelers who prefer apartment-style accommodation with both laundry and kitchen facilities.

Good to know: FAV’s housekeeping schedule differs from a traditional full-service hotel, so check the current cleaning policy if you are staying several nights.

3. FAV HOTEL Hiroshima Stadium — Best Near Hiroshima Station for Larger Families

FAV HOTEL Hiroshima Stadium offers many of the same family-friendly advantages as the Heiwa Odori property, but its location is better suited to travelers who want to remain close to Hiroshima Station.

The hotel is about a 10-minute walk from Hiroshima Station, making it convenient if Hiroshima is one stop on a longer Shinkansen itinerary.

Why I Recommend It

  • In-room washer-dryer: Excellent for doing laundry midway through a Japan trip.
  • Kitchen: Useful for breakfast, snacks, children’s meals, and longer stays.
  • Large family rooms: Selected room types accommodate up to six guests.
  • Near Hiroshima Station: About a 10-minute walk, making onward Shinkansen travel straightforward.

Best For

Larger families who want apartment-style facilities while remaining within walking distance of Hiroshima Station.

Train traveler tip: If you have an early Shinkansen departure or are continuing to destinations such as Osaka, Kyoto, Fukuoka, or Miyajima, I would choose the Stadium property over FAV Heiwa Odori for easier station access.

4. GRAND BASE Hiroshima Ekimae — Best Apartment-Style Stay Near the Station

GRAND BASE Hiroshima Ekimae is another strong choice for families who want more space and home-style facilities close to Hiroshima Station.

Instead of a washer-dryer machine, rooms use an in-room washing machine together with a bathroom drying system. After washing your clothes, hang them inside the bathroom and use the built-in drying function.

Why I Recommend It

  • In-room washing machine: No need to use a shared coin laundry.
  • Bathroom drying system: Clothes can be dried inside the bathroom after washing.
  • Kitchen: Rooms include cooking equipment, refrigerator, and microwave.
  • Large rooms: Room sizes range roughly from 30 to more than 50 square metres, with options for four or five guests.

Best For

Families who value space and kitchen facilities and do not mind air-drying clothes using the bathroom drying system rather than a tumble dryer.

Laundry tip: A Japanese bathroom drying system works surprisingly well, but heavier clothing can take longer than it would in a tumble dryer. Starting the laundry in the evening gives it plenty of time to dry overnight.

5. GRAND BASE Hiroshima Hikarimachi — Best for Extra Space Near Hiroshima Station

GRAND BASE Hiroshima Hikarimachi is another apartment-style option within roughly a 10-minute walk of Hiroshima Station.

Selected room types include an in-room washing machine together with a bathroom drying system, while larger rooms also include kitchen facilities and enough space for families of three or four.

Why I Recommend It

  • In-room laundry in selected rooms: Several room categories include a washing machine.
  • Bathroom drying system: Useful for drying clothes overnight without a separate tumble dryer.
  • Kitchen options: Many room types include cooking facilities, refrigerator, and microwave.
  • Family-sized rooms: Larger layouts accommodate up to four guests.
  • Near Hiroshima Station: Convenient for Shinkansen travel and onward rail journeys.

Best For

Families who want apartment-style space near Hiroshima Station and are happy to use a bathroom drying system rather than a conventional dryer.

Booking tip: Check the exact room description before reserving. Some room types have a washing machine and kitchen, while others may only include the bathroom drying system.
