Hotel Trend Iwakuni

Only a 7 minute walk from Iwakuni station which was great because we had luggage. Room was very spacious (two double beds), felt clean, and hotel was close to restaurants and 7eleven. Staff was nice and helpful.

Room felt a little out-dated

the room is spacious and comfortable for 2. breakfast was 500yen and it was really delicious and filling

the carpark was difficult to park

Location is good, close to train station. Staff was accommodating. Breakfast was awesome, very good value.

Room is very small, although clean and efficient.

Typical business hotel in Japan. About 10 min walk from the train station

This was the most cost-effective hotel I've stayed at in Japan. My room was clean and comfortable, with a private bathroom. The traditional breakfast buffet was very tasty, filling, and only 500 yen. It is only a five minute walk to the train station. If I'm ever in the area again, I will gladly stay here.

Large bathroom, plenty of space for two suitcases, comfortable and large bed.

Wish it had a kitchenette

The Trend Hotel Iwakuni is a good quality Hotel, ample parking, quick check-in, cheerful staff, good rooms comfortable and clean. It is in a good location and is good value for money.

Very clean and great staff

Vary small with intermittent Wi-Fi

Cleaner than most. 3 washers 3 dryers (coin operated. umbrellas available to borrow. Quiet stay. Vending machines sell beer and soft drinks.

bathroom was a bit small but that’s everywhere in Japan.

Practical location only 6min walk to the station. Nice and helpful staff. I left my luggage at the hotel early morning and when I came back at night it was waiting in my room!

Room is very basic - empty walls, all grey, and hotel is old, giving a sad feeling. It was a bit cold.

The staff was great, very helpful!

I understand that it was one of the cheaper places to stay in the area, but the carpet was disgusting and the room had the remnants of once being a smoking room.

The free parking is the only good thing about Hotel Trend Iwakuni.

The photos online are extremely misleading. Front the front desk, to the elevator, to the rooms, the overall impression is dimly lit, cluttered and unkept. I don't require much when traveling and am generally content with older buildings and furnishings, but the level of grime, mold & stains throughout Hotel Trend Iwakuni is unacceptable. We had two rooms. One of the bathroom toilets contained a recent bowel movement, the bathroom walls had visible black mold growth, the carpeting in both units was heavily stained, and both rooms smelled strongly of cigarette smoke (supposedly non-smoking rooms) and mold/mildew. When we checked in, we were told to leave our room keys at the front desk if/when we went out (not checked out, just going out to eat, shop, etc.), a practice I have never encountered and feel extremely uncomfortable complying with. Fortunately, our reservation was just for one night. Next trip to Iwakuni, we will stay elsewhere & you should, too.

the most comfortable bed I have slept on in Japan

very old run down

Good location at a good price.

The room was very smoky.

customer service was good.

the room wasn’t anything like in the pictures. it was small, the robes didn’t look clean, the Television only had one channel. There was wires hanging out of the wall by the bed, lighting was poor and a small metal door with tape on it that rattled each time you opened a door.

Super convenient, easy going staff.

The wifi was intermittent. I was at the end of the hallway away from the router so the signal would come and go.

Friendly staff

The Wi-Fi was slow, the temperature for shower fluctuated often, only one pillow for bed.

Aircon is new

Toilet

Easy access to MCASI

Our room was big
