The striking glass façade of this new business centre reflects the equally bright and contemporary flexible workspaces within.

A glistening new landmark on Hiroshima’s colourful skyline, GRANODE Hiroshima is impressive and welcoming in equal measure. Conveniently located four minutes from Hiroshima station, and close to the Enko River with its banks of cherry blossom, this business centre offers some of the finest offices in the city. Across 22 floors, turn-of-the-century interior décor marries state-of-the-art technology for premium workspace that’s hard to beat. From stylish private offices to stately conference and meeting rooms, each space is sure to leave a lasting impression. And for opportunities to network with local professionals, elegant co-working areas provide the perfect place to talk shop and share knowledge.

When it’s time to press pause on the project at hand, take in some local culture at the nearby Hiroshima Prefectural Art Museum and Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum – both well worth a visit. Keen to track down some urban green space? The tranquil lawns of Futabayami Ryokuchi Park provide the perfect setting for al-fresco lunches and de-stress walks.
