Enjoy a Refreshing Summer at Hotel Granvia Hiroshima

As summer approaches, Hotel Granvia Hiroshima and Hotel Granvia Hiroshima South Gate are excited to introduce a unique accommodation package that includes entry tickets to the newly opened Hiroshima Motomachi Aquarium. This package, aptly named the "Hiroshima Motomachi Aquarium Admission Ticket Accommodation Plan," will be available starting July 18, 2026.

A New Summer Destination

According to JTB's travel trends announcement, this summer sees a clear shift toward experiences that provide value, even as travelers remain conscious of rising prices. More families and individuals are choosing to escape the heat by exploring indoor attractions. Among these, zoos and aquariums are highly favored spots. Thus, the Hiroshima Motomachi Aquarium, centrally located in Hiroshima City, emerges as an ideal destination.

The aquarium, themed around the "Stage of Life," is a modern urban venue where guests can explore eight uniquely designed areas, blending captivating scents, sounds, lights, and visuals to reveal creatures in their aquatic habitats. Highlights include mesmerizing jellyfish displays and creative artistic presentations that ensure visitors enjoy a comfortable and refreshing experience in the midst of summer heat.

Collaboration for a Seamless Experience

To enhance the experience of exploring Hiroshima's new attractions, the two Granvia Hotels offer this collaboration plan. Travelers can enjoy not only the renowned World Heritage sites but also the latest attractions that have recently opened, making for a richer and more enjoyable stay in Hiroshima.

Access to the aquarium has also been improved, integrating three routes into a single one on the convenient sightseeing loop bus, "Maple Loop," which connects to Hotel Granvia Hiroshima. For guests at Hotel Granvia Hiroshima South Gate, tram access is readily available, making the journey easy and efficient. Day passes for both transport options can be purchased at the hotel front desk.

After a day of exploring the aquarium, visitors can also venture to nearby landmarks, such as the iconic Hiroshima Peace Memorial (Genbaku Dome) and the exciting new football stadium, "Edion Peace Wing Hiroshima." Following the day’s activities, guests are invited to unwind in their hotel rooms or indulge in local Hiroshima cuisine at one of the hotel's in-house restaurants.

This package is perfect not only for family vacations but also for return visitors to Hiroshima or anyone seeking a cool retreat during the hot summer months. Both Hotel Granvia Hiroshima and Hotel Granvia Hiroshima South Gate will continue to offer collaboration plans to help guests immerse themselves in the beauty of Hiroshima.
