A bonenkai is a year-end party, and a shinnenkai is its New Year version. Many hotels in Hiroshima sell fixed plans for both: a set price per person that covers food, free-flow drinks and the room. This guide compares the 2026 plans of four hotels: Hotel Granvia Hiroshima, RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima, ANA Crowne Plaza Hiroshima and Grand Prince Hotel Hiroshima. It shows the price per person, the smallest group each plan takes, the drinks, parking and the nearest station or stop.
In short
- Every plan here includes 2 hours of free-flow drinks. Prices per person run from ¥8,000 (ANA Crowne Plaza, Sunday to Tuesday only) to ¥15,000 (RIHGA Royal, Plan D).
- Grand Prince takes groups from 8 guests. Hotel Granvia and RIHGA Royal start at 10, and ANA Crowne Plaza at 20.
- ANA Crowne Plaza gives a free sparkling-wine toast on its ¥8,000, ¥9,000 and ¥11,500 plans if you book by the end of October 2026.
- The plan pages we read are in Japanese, and none says whether banquet staff speak English. Booking is by phone or an inquiry form, so call early with your date, group size and budget.

Both exclude December 31 to January 3. The Grand Prince page covers January 3 to December 30, 2026, with some dates excluded. The ANA Crowne Plaza page does not state the dates you can use.
2. Which plan fits my group and my trip home?
Depends on the provider
- 8 or 9 guests: Grand Prince Hotel Hiroshima is the only one of the four that takes this size. See section 6.
- 10 to 19 guests: add Hotel Granvia (10+) and RIHGA Royal (10 – 200).
- 20 guests or more: ANA Crowne Plaza is also open to you. Hotel Granvia takes a standing buffet from 20, and Grand Prince takes a buffet from 40.
- Going home by train or streetcar: Hotel Granvia is connected to JR Hiroshima Station. RIHGA Royal and ANA Crowne Plaza are each within 3 minutes on foot of a streetcar stop.
- Arriving by car: Grand Prince has 440 outdoor spaces and its page lists 4 hours free for banquet guests. ANA Crowne Plaza has 80 spaces. Hotel Granvia has no car park of its own.
Grand Prince is in Motoujina, south of the city center, so it needs a bus ride from Hiroshima Station (see section 6). If your group is drinking, ask everyone how they will get home before you choose.

7. How do I book if I do not read Japanese?
Depends on the provider
The plan pages we read are in Japanese, and none says whether banquet staff handle English. Use a browser translation tool to read them, and book by phone or through the hotel’s inquiry form.
- Fix your date, number of guests and budget per person. Check each plan’s usable dates and the excluded days.
- Pick the plan from section 2. The smallest group each plan takes is the first limit.
- Contact the hotel. Use the phone numbers in each section, or the inquiry form where the plan page has one.
- Ask about the extras before you confirm. Ask what the price includes, the extension fee, parking and the cancellation terms. The plan pages do not state cancellation terms.
