Hotel Cycle

5-11 Nishigoshocho, Onomichi, Japan
Nishigoshocho
28 Rooms
Modern Design & Lively
Only in Japan could a themed hotel so over-the-top come out feeling just right. In a place as jaded as New York or London the Hotel Cycle would land with a thud. But in Japan there’s nothing cool about cynicism — here cool means total dedication and total commitment. And Hotel Cycle is nothing if not committed to its theme.

Here, on Hiroshima’s newly redeveloped waterfront, in the Onomichi U2 mixed-use complex, you don’t even have to step off your pedals — you can ride right into this cavernous space, which includes not just the hotel but a restaurant, a bar, a café, and a bakery, as well as a Giant bike shop and a retail space dedicated to local food, clothing and housewares.

The building’s interior still retains some warehouse atmosphere, with its double-height ceiling and its elevated walkways. But the rooms temper their industrial origins with organic warmth, and they’re efficient, as you’d expect, complete with hooks for hanging your bike up out of the way.

And you’re not confined to Onomichi U2, not by a long shot. The reason this hotel is here is the Shimanami Kaido cycle path, which connects Japan’s islands of Honshu and Shikoku via six smaller islands and numerous bridges. It’s an easy ride, as these things go, and remarkably scenic — here’s hoping it’s a mode of travel that catches on.

Everything! The design. The location. The service. The combination of facilities. Some people might find the rooms on the dark side and the lack of view may trouble some, but I loved them. It's my second stay at the hotel and hopefully it won't be my last. Thanks Hotel Cycle.

Great industrial design and location for anyone doing the Shimanami Kaido cycling route. Great breakfast, cool shops and restaurants in the complex.

Great concept, and well set up for cyclists. Being able to hire a bike from the store in the lobby (or others nearby) was very convenient, as was access to laundry facilities for sweaty cycling gear! We wish we'd stayed longer to be able to explore the whole island-hopping cycling route better. The design is great - edgy, contemporary, a great atmosphere. We enjoyed a lovely dinner at the restaurant, and breakfast was also good. The bath our room was HUGE - more like a small plunge pool. Our kids thought it was fabulous and wore their goggles to take a bath. Nice location on the pier, and easily walkable from the train station (just note that it's the Onomichi JR station - not Shin-Onomichi speed train station)
