Our stay in Nagoya was overall enjoyable, but this hotel came with its fair share of quirks.
Let’s start with the positives. The room we stayed in was massive—especially by Japanese standards—and the view was absolutely incredible. Breakfast was also a highlight, offering a good selection to start the day. We had club lounge access, which was a nice touch, though honestly, I wouldn’t go out of my way to pay extra for it if it wasn’t included.
That said, there were a few downsides. The hotel is situated right above the train line, and the noise really carries. There’s even a note in the room explaining this, with earplugs offered if it becomes an issue. For light sleepers, this might be a deal-breaker.
We also experienced a minor hiccup with the cleanliness of the room, but to the hotel’s credit, the staff were incredibly responsive and resolved the issue quickly. I’d chalk it up to a one-off oversight.
As for the location, I can’t really comment since we had a car (parking is 2,500 yen per night). However, Nagoya itself was wonderful, and despite a few setbacks, we had a pleasant stay. If you’re not bothered by train noise, this hotel has a lot to offer!
