A highlight of our trip!

This was an amazing hotel. The upstairs onsen was a huge bonus and it was very relaxing. The products provided were of a high standard. We had a deluxe suite which was expensive but worth every penny. We had a private outdoor bath and balcony which meant we could watch the sunset. The hotel provided a lot of freebies and comfy kimono robes too! The staff were so friendly and also allowed us to leave our luggage the next day whilst we explored the island. This was a very tranquil stay and a highlight of our trip.

It was just average

Location of hotel is about 12 minute walk from ferry terminal and short 5 minute walk to tourist areas. For those who have mobility issues may have some challenges going there by foot. Only the front desk staff is able to speak some basic english, otherwise most other staff spoke almost primarily japanese. The hotel room we chose (western twin room with onsen bath in room) looks updated compared with the rest of the hotel. Clean room and comfortable twin beds and a very nice in-room onsen with a beautiful view of the torri gate and the ocean. Word of advice is to NOT get a room on the 6th floor because its the same floor as the buffet restaurant (with its very poor ventilation) which has grilled seafood and the smoke not only fills up the restaurant (and your clothing/body) but the smoke also lingers in the hallway of the 6th floor in the evenings. Thank goodness it did not get into the room as long as you keep your doors closed. Buffet restaurant otherwise is not too bad for a buffet but selection is primarily japanese food if thats an issue for you. "Outside onsen" not truly outside is abit on the small side and one of the two shower handles was leaking badly and needs replacement rather then taped up... regular onsen also had some maintenance issues with its bathing facility. Overall, it was an average stay.

Wonderful place on a beautiful island

LiveMax hotel on Miyajima was a the perfect place for an overnight trip. Perfectly situated close to the ferry station and walkable to all the sights on the island. They rent bicycles if needed. The dinner buffet was insane (mad rush to the sushi and beef for yakitori at the table) but it was a unique experience to say the least. Delicious food provided. We had excellent customer service during the check in and check out process. You are assigned a locker for outdoor shoes upon arrival and have to wear the provided leather slippers while on site. The room was extremely spacious (for Japan standards) and the 2 waters provided were appreciated.

The climb up the front of the hotel is dangerous. Large crack at bottom of slope. Very difficult pulling suitcases up the short slope. Too much space between stepping stones. Carpets in hallways need to be replaced. Hot water heating pot top is broken and there a large gouge in the door separating the bath from the main room

The resort seems to have been built to a high standard, has some lovely spaces and rooms. We really loved the room that we stayed in, and it had lovely features. It was a shame that the private baths were under construction and were not available for use. There was a great selection of food, but the quality was noticeably lower than our experience across other venues across Japan, especially considering the price of this establishment. We did interact with some lovely staff, and some others who were extremely disinterested in us / saw us as a bother. The surrounding area was phenomenal, with amazing sites and experiences. We felt very safe in the area.

I hope you read this review before you book this hotel. I will recommend you DON’T book this hotel. It was the only one available for the night we wanted to stay in Miyajima so we had to book it. We read some bad reviews but we risked it. Well it was VERY VERY bad. The hotel is very old and it feels unkept and dirty. The comforters were supposed to be white but they now look yellow with stains. Completely disgusting. Additionally the entire hotel smelled like strong seafood all over. Not in a good way! We had to put towels in the door so that they strong smell wouldn’t come into our room. We ended up spending our time outside of the hotel until late at night and woke up super early to checkout because the smell was unbearable. You can have an old hotel but at least keep it clean and fresh. This hotel needs a renovation and new management. We 100% regretted booking this hotel.
