Hiroshima, Japan 730-0026

1. Will trains and buses run after 10 PM?

2. I hear there is a limousine bus that goes to Hiroshima Bus Terminal. How much does this cost?

3. Once I get to Hiroshima Bus terminal, how far is it to the Oriental Hotel Hiroshima? Can we walk or will we have to catch some other transportation?


4. If I take a train, it stops at JR Hiroshima station. The hotel website says it is 5 minutes away by taxi. I don't have a car seat for my baby, won't that be a problem?

5. By the time I get to Hiroshima, it may be almost midnight. Will I have a problem getting transportation?

Thanks in advance for your help!

The fastest for you is to get on the express train and transfer in SHIN-OSAKA station and get on the SHINKANSEN to hiroshima.

the last shinkansen for hiroshima is at 10:29 PM and u will get to hiroshima around midnight.

BUT you need to move fast and know your way around the train station in Osaka , there are only few minutes between transfer and with a baby and luggages with you it would be difficult. And u need to get to the 9:04 train from the airport to make it. With immigration check and claiming the baggages i think you will be out from the airport maybe around 10pm depending on how many passengers there are.


SO my suggestion is just get to SHIN-OSAKA station and stay at a nearby hotel there and get on the first shinkansen in the morning.

I am suggesting SHINKANSEN , because you have a baby. Bus to Hiroshima from Osaka takes about 5 hours and not much room to move around. I don't think you want a grumpy baby on bus.
