Hi!
Here’s my Instagram post of Miyajima with information on accessibility.

Transportation is as Josh said and, as far as I know, only that combination is accessible.
As for accommodation, I could not find a wheelchair accessible hotel in the island (there was one at the sea front, but it had some steps to access the room and then stairs to the onsen), so I’d recommend staying at Hiroshima.
All the shrine and the see front are wheelchair accessible, so the visit is definitely worth it. When I was there we didn’t venture into the side streets. With a Google Street View inspection, it seemed there were pretty steep slopes.
Anyway, enjoy the trip!
