Does your Hiroshima time include Miyajima island? 3 nights might be too long. I stayed 2 and it was fine.

Yeah, I was planning a day trip to Miyajima during my stay there. Also, this looked interesting: http://visithiroshima.net/plan_your_trip/tour_plans/sandankyo.html. So I was thinking 1 day for the bomb memorial, 1 day for Miyajima, 1 day for Sandankyo gorge

That sounds good. I loved Hiroshima. The people were very friendly. Note, if you get a JR pass, you can use the red site seeing bus.

I stayed at the Sheraton Hiroshima and it was excellent

It's right next to the JR station. You can catch the red site seeing bus at street level. There is a huge cab stand outside hotel if you need one.

If you want to get okonomiyaki try nagataya which is really close to the bomb dome

Otherwise, the hike up Mt. Misen is pretty steep and if even if you're in good shape it will take a while. If you're not in decent shape you're screwed.

FTFY. I run a lot and I was huffing and puffing all the way to the top. It was worth it, but not fun at all, even though I did enjoy the scenery and took pictures all the way up. Don't underestimate Hiroshima/Miyajima. PeePot, I would budget a day for each.
