Nagoya Hostels

The living area is clean, while the common area and washroom is not enough. Recommended for a short trip but maybe not enough for staying for days.

Part of a chain of capsule hotels with branches elsewhere in Japan. If you've stayed in another 9Hours, you know what to expect, because they're identical. This one has no self-service check-in machine, but reception is efficient and friendly. It may be tempting to skip the top floor lounge, but this would be a mistake, as it's the hotel's best feature. It may also be tempting to order the add-on optional breakfast, and this would be an even worse mistake -it's hugely overpriced and very small, don't do it! They should kick out that delirious ”Glitch” Cafe and replace it with a vending machine loaded with baumkuchen and castella and that would be a massive improvement.

The room is clean and tidy. There will be noise when someone talks or passes by in the corridor. Generally speaking, it is good. There is no one at the counter 24 hours a day. The bathroom and toilet are clean and there are paper cups for the water dispenser.

My sister and I stayed in this hostel for 3 nights during our stay to Nagoya. The location is amazing. Right off Osu Shopping Street, this hostel is easy to navigate to and has a lot of shopping and dining options right at our door step. The lobby is nice and warm and the staff are very friendly- they walk you up to your room and inform you very well of the procedures that the hostel follows. The room is spacious and there are lamps and desks on each level of the bunk bed. There are ample electrical plugs and the ladder to the top bunk is sturdy. Downsides- complete ban on eating in the room. This is frustrating especially when you just want to bring a small snack home from the convenience stores to snack on before bed (as you can in many many other hostels). You are forced to go downstairs to the lobby to eat, but I didn’t feel like doing that at 10pm. Another downside is the comfort of the bed and pillow. The pillow is way too soft and you can barely feel any support behind your head. The bed ledges are awkward so it makes it difficult to get in and out of your bed especially on the top bunk. Although the room is very spacious (enough for luggage and changing room) the room would benefit from a few more coat hangers to hang towels after showering and a chair for the desk as to get ready in the morning. Furthermore, you have to make your own bed when you arrive which is frustrating especially if you’re tired from carrying luggage around all day which we were. I love the location and feel that although there are definitely cons, this hostel redeems itself through the pros. I’d recommend staying here if you’re young and don’t mind a very hostel-like hostel.

It is located in the middle of Nagoya Station and Nagoya Castle and is in a very good location. The surrounding area is old town and has a taste. The staff were friendly and easy to come to even if you travel alone. I want to come again.

A cheap hotel that is divided into just sleeping. Because it is cheaper than the capsule, there is no complaint about the facilities (do not say?). When you go from the vertical thin entrance to the room as much as you think it is a single hotel closet, it feels like a narrow bed and a small TV that seems to fall when you turn around. But it was cheap so I was saved. I want to use it again when traveling alone.

I was surprised at how quiet and clean it was considering it was a capsule hotel. The bath was also nice. Even when I was in trouble because I didn't know my keys on the way home, they kindly helped me. I'm glad it was okay though. It was raining so I was in trouble, but they provided me with an umbrella. It was good service.

The room is very clean, the bed is moderately soft and hard, the location is very close to Daxu Guanyin, it is very convenient, there is no parking lot, it is troublesome to find a parking lot if you drive, but the overall experience is still very good, the owner is also very enthusiastic, introduced us to the delicious shops nearby, it is a worthwhile trip
