Smile Hotel Nagoya Sakae
My stay at Smile Hotel Nagoya Sakae was a great experience overall. The location is excellent—just a short walk from Sakae Station, putting me right in the heart of the city’s shopping and dining district. The room size was just right—not too small, not too large—perfect for a comfortable night’s rest. One minor note: some rooms have slightly weaker sound insulation, so I could hear a bit of noise from neighboring rooms. That said, it didn’t significantly impact my stay. Clean, well-maintained, and staff were friendly and helpful. For the price and convenience, this hotel offers outstanding value. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to fellow travelers visiting Nagoya.
Trip & Sleep Hostel
Staying at Trip & Sleep Hostel in Nagoya was an absolute highlight of my trip. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and spoke excellent English—always happy to help with recommendations or directions. My room was a private bunk setup, spacious and quiet, which felt like a real retreat after a long day. Unlike some hostels where you share rooms with strangers, this one offered great privacy and decent soundproofing, making it perfect for a good night’s rest. The shared bathroom had proper partitions and was spotlessly clean—no compromises on hygiene here. Location-wise, it’s just a short walk from Sakae (about 2km), and right next to the bustling Daimaru shopping district. I found the perfect suitcase at 3Coins, and stocked up on skincare and medicines at Don Quijote—such a convenient stop. Bonus: the nearby Sanrin Shrine is charming and peaceful, worth a quick visit. And don’t miss Yabashi Pork Cutlet—arrived around 11 AM, got a table just in time, and when we left, there was already a long line forming. That says it all about its popularity. Overall, this hostel delivers incredible value, comfort, and convenience. It’s not just a place to sleep—it’s a smart choice for travelers who want quality, location, and a touch of local charm.

Pravafor Josai
Staying at Pravafor Josai was an absolute delight from start to finish. The apartment comes fully equipped with essentials like umbrellas, toiletries, laundry detergent, and a complete set of tableware for four—everything you need for a comfortable stay. The balcony is perfect for hanging clothes, and the kitchen has a surprisingly convenient automatic water-filling feature that makes preparing meals a breeze.

A short stroll in the other direction leads to a small but well-stocked convenience store called Feel Supermarket Hanano, which offers fresh produce and seasonal fruits. It closes at 8 PM, so visiting around 6 or 7 PM means you can score great deals on clearance items—perfect for food lovers looking to stock up. Plus, it’s just about a 10-minute walk to Nagoya Castle, making it easy to explore the city on foot. Overall, this place strikes the perfect balance between everyday comfort and a laid-back travel vibe.

Trust Nagoya Bld
The hotel is perfectly located just a short walk from Osu Shopping Street, making it super convenient for exploring local shops and street food. However, the room experience fell short in several areas. The property only has floors 3 and 4 with no elevator, which made carrying luggage up and down quite challenging, especially with heavy bags. The cleanliness was also concerning—both the sink and bathroom showed signs of wear, and the carpet looked old and not well maintained. While the location is definitely a strong point, the lack of basic upkeep and accessibility issues significantly affect the overall value. It’s a good spot if you’re on a tight schedule and don’t mind the stairs, but I’d expect better hygiene and facilities for the price.
Nikko Style Nagoya
Staying at Nikko Style Nagoya was a fantastic experience overall. The location is convenient—just a straight walk from Meitetsu Station, making it easy to get around by train or on foot. There are plenty of local eateries nearby, including ramen shops and yakitori spots, so dinner options are never an issue. What really stood out was the spacious room with modern, well-maintained amenities. Cleanliness is top-notch; every time I hung the 'Please clean' card, the staff returned the room spotless with fresh towels, replenished toiletries, and water bottles. They even included essentials like makeup remover, facial cleanser, moisturizer, and face cream—truly thoughtful. A little extra touch would be adding a moisturizing cream for winter dryness, but otherwise, it’s already ahead of the game. If needed, they offer hair curlers at the front desk—very handy! One small note: the showerhead nozzles had some black residue buildup, which could use more regular cleaning. But honestly, this tiny detail doesn’t take away from the excellent quality of the stay. Great value, great comfort, and a hotel I’d definitely return to.
Sanco Inn Nagoya Nishiki Shikinoyu
Staying at Sanco Inn Nagoya Nishiki was an absolute delight. The location is unbeatable—right between Sakae and Kiyomizu-dori stations, making it super easy to explore the city on foot or by train. There are countless restaurants, shops, and even vending machines with cute gachapon toys and claw machines nearby—perfect for a fun little detour. The highlight? The rooftop onsen and sky lounge. After soaking in the hot bath, I relaxed with a cold treat while enjoying panoramic views of the city skyline. It’s such a peaceful and refreshing way to end the day. The whole experience felt premium without the premium price—highly recommend for travelers who value comfort and convenience.
TOBE
I had a wonderful stay at TOBE|TOBE in Nagoya! The location is excellent—just a short walk from Nagoya Station, making it super convenient to explore the city and nearby attractions. The room was clean, cozy, and well-designed with a modern minimalist vibe that made me feel instantly relaxed. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I slept really well throughout the night. Staff were friendly and helpful during check-in and check-out. Overall, the atmosphere of the hotel felt calm and welcoming, perfect for a relaxing getaway. Great value for money, and I’d definitely come back. Highly recommend this place if you're visiting Nagoya!
Casa de Marzo
My stay at Casa de Marzo was disappointing mainly due to the room cleanliness. The corners of the floor were covered in dust, which made me feel uncomfortable and even prompted me to clean it myself with tissues. While the location is convenient—close to public transit and downtown Nagoya—the overall hygiene didn’t match the expected standard for a 4-star property. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and improves cleaning protocols, especially in hard-to-reach areas. A better focus on detail would go a long way in enhancing guest satisfaction.
Hamilton Hotel Black
The room isn’t huge, but it’s clean and well-maintained. What impressed me most was the self-service amenity station in the lobby—everything from makeup remover to face masks was available. I ended up staying last minute with absolutely nothing packed, and these little extras made my stay so much easier. No need to panic or run to a convenience store. The neighborhood is also super convenient—plenty of local izakayas and ramen shops nearby. Even if you’re not a foodie, you’ll find something tasty within walking distance. Overall, a great experience with excellent value for money. I’d definitely book again next time I’m in Nagoya.
