Such a gorgeous and relaxing place. The meal we had for dinner was one of the best of our lives. We can't wait to return in the future. The hotel was very welcoming to our children as well. Tattoos are not allowed in the public baths but you can pre book a private bath for an additional fee.

My partner and I stayed here for one night during our time in Hiroshima / Miyajima area. It was our first time in a Ryokan and it was a beautiful experience. The service was impeccable, the garden was so beautiful, rooms were comfortable, food was seriously amazing and we were taken back every time! Plus there were tons on onsens to choose from!

We were initially surprised to not see many recent reviews, but can confirm for anyone looking at Sekitei that this ryokan is exceptional and absolutely worth a stay. The location was quiet and and off the beaten path about 30 min south of Hiroshima (their staff will pick you up and drop you off from the local train stop). The entire property was very peaceful and felt authentic to Japanese culture. I highly suggest booking a room with a private onsen, we stayed in the room Oimatsu which had 2 sitting rooms and the onsen on the 2nd floor looking out towards the mountains. No need to book a private bath session if you already have a room with a private Onsen unless you would like to have a bigger bath. The bath in our room was just big enough for 2 adults. The service and food was amazing and breakfast was also a multi course meal to finish off the stay. The staff was excellent and this was easily one of the best hospitality experiences we have had in our travels.

A really unique experience in a traditional Japanese inn with views across the water to Mijajima. The staff were amazing. Dinner is served in the room and is an experience in itself

Really beautiful place with amazing rooms each with their own incredible views of Hiroshima Bay. It's such an austere location that you can't help but to relax when you're there, the effect is undeniable. If you're a foreigner, the hotel food is incredibly traditional Japanese food and doesn't happen to agree with my palate at all so expect to have dinner elsewhere. However the presentation is simply gorgeous despite nothing being particularly edible to me. Your mileage in that department may vary but it didn't at all detract from the unforgettable experience I had here
