Richmond Hotel Fukuyama Ekimae

Breakfast buffet wasn¿t worth the $24.00 The next stay had its breakfast buffet free and it was much better! Clearly disappointed

Layout of the room was exceptionally thoughtful. The breakfast was excellent. This was the least expensive hotel that I selected from Tokyo to Hiroshima. It turned out to be an outstanding hotel with easy access to a most beautiful castle.

near to the train station!

the room too small, the shower too small, the bed too old

The location is perfect.

There is no coffee in the room. The coffee machine can only be use from 2:00 PM to 11:00 PM on the 8th floor. If you don’t want to have breakfast at the hotel, you can have coffee in the morning. The bedding and pillows are dated and off the color.

Close Ito my business partners in Fukuyama City.I walked up to the Fukuyama Jo.

Close to station, several English speaking staff,great breakfast, comfortable bed, drink bar available throughout the day, close to conbini’s and a grocery store.

I don’t like that the aircon points at the desk so if you’re sitting, it’ll blow on you but that’s not the hotel’s fault.

5 mins walk from the train station. A slightly newer hotel with nicer designed rooms than older budget hotels. Worth paying a little bit extra for.Supermarket next door. Traditional Udon noodle bar & Co Co Curry branch on the hotel side of the station.

Information brochures in English. Great amenities. Staff was very helpful during check-in and helped me fill in the registration card. Staff spoke some English and spoke slowly and clearly in Japanese to help me understand everything. Very great staff! Best breakfast I've had in a Japanese hotel. I couldn't believe how many options there were. It was unexpected and delicious! Drink station was available for use during the day at no charge.

Very clean room and friendly staff. Good location close to train station

Small room (as usual in Japan)

Stayed there for one night. the front desk is on the 8th floor.The location is very good , with lots of restaurants and shops around, friendly stuff . Nice sight from the hotel room .

Ambiance, Lobby, Room & Amenities

The hotel is close to the station, which is a short trip to Onomichi and Shimanami Kaido. There is also a grocery store next door. It was very convenient to explore Fukuyama while staying at the Richmond Hotel.

The room we stayed in had a gap between the bath and the wall, which allowed water to get trapped and cause mildew to form. There was only a laundry on two floors so we had to change floors to access the laundry.

Clean room. Good amenities. Great location. Breakfast is good.

The bed is in a weird location in the room. Should have switched positions with the desk.

Very convenient if you're going to see Fukuyama Castle or want to be close to the station to go via bus to Tomonoura for example. There is a mall nearby, a traditional 50s, 60s type shopping quarter too, and Fukuyama Station itself has a lot of stores and restaurants, so you can get anything you need. There is also a full grocery store on the B1 floor a couple of steps from the hotel, and an Animate as well for anyone interested in Japanese manga and gamer culture.

No particular problems. Be careful, the breakfast is mainly Japanese dishes, with some Western stuff, so plan ahead if you're not that into Japanese cuisine! Also: You can choose various plus amenities on the 8th floor reception of the hotel, but the shampoo, conditioner etc. are already in your room, so don't bother scrounging for those.

Richmond breakfasts are a primary reason why we chose this hotel. They are diverse, flavorful, and interesting, since they include both traditional and modern fare. The room was one of the most spacious we've seen in Japan, and looks quite modern. We actually came to this town of many in the area near Onomichi and Kurashiki especially to stay at this hotel. The basement of the complex the hotel is part of is a supermarket that had great values for travelling on the train the next day.

Nothing comes to mind, although it is a bit strange the reception floor is so high up. Everything otherwise was good.

Traditional character of the room. The public bath. Water hot, environment clean.

Can’t think of anything.

The staff was excellent. Very helpful and courteous. Right next to train station to visit Hiroshima (15 minutes). Close to charming restaurant area. Be sure to check out "Benbe". Great food! Sit at the bar to watch the chef. Decent breakfast. Made to order eggs if you ask. More fruit would be good. Coffee machine for lattes, etc available all dayWashers and dryers available

The lighting in the rooms were terrible. They were cold fluorescent lights. We couldn't stand to have them on so had to use the desk lamp and bedside lights which didn't give much light.

Perfect place. Super central, super friendly english speaking staff, nice room and really good value for money!

Super close to the station, but you can’t hear the trains. Very friendly staff, complimentary drinks (except during breakfast time) and comfortable beds.

Good location, near Station and other shops. The overall hotel entrance, elevator, and lobby look new and clean BUT!

We had two rooms on the same floor, and both of them smelled BAD, almost like synthetic “sweat”. I heard our neighbor complain about the same thing when he entered the room. We had our room’s windows and doors open for an hour, which helped improve the smell but it never completely disappeared. I was considering complaining and requesting a room change, but I assumed all the rooms were like this. Not going back for sure
