I had a great stay at Minn Station Ai Nagoya! The rooms were surprisingly spacious — much larger than many city hotels in Nagoya — which made it really comfortable, especially for longer stays or if you’re travelling with luggage.
The hotel has a very modern design and feel, with clean, stylish interiors and up-to-date facilities throughout. The room was equipped with all the amenities I needed — from a comfortable bed and good lighting to convenient storage and a well-appointed bathroom. Everything felt thoughtfully placed and easy to use.
One of the best things about this property is the convenience factor: there’s a Family Mart right on the ground floor, which was super handy for quick snacks, drinks, or late-night essentials without having to walk around after a long day of sightseeing.
Overall, Minn Station Ai Nagoya offers spacious, modern rooms with every amenity you need — plus the bonus of a convenience store right below. Great choice for both short trips and longer stays in Nagoya!
Located right next to the Ure River, with a nice view from the room. As it has only 5-6 rooms, it is pretty exclusive. You can use their 2 hotspring baths privately for 45mins each time, or you can take a short walk over to their 2 sister hotels for bigger hotspring baths. This is the only hotel in the Hazu Group that serves Medicinal Cuisine. As the hotel seems to be converted from a traditional old house, the stairways can be cramped and not suitable for bringing large suitcases, so just pack a small bag and leave the suitcase downstairs or in the car. Had a relaxing time there.

The Apartment Hotel 11 Nagoya was a very convenient stay. It was super clean and comfortable. It's a walk to the subway and a short walk to other spots. There's lots of stores and restaurants close to the hotel as well. We used the airport bus from Sakae station to Nagoya airport NGO and it was super convenient (cashless service). They also have a bus from the airport that stops at Nagoya Tokyu hotel, which will be even more convenient. Looking forward to the next stay in Nagoya.
The room is not as bad as reading reviews, clean, but the walls are thin, so you can make the sound of the next room.
Near the train station
In the room there is a refrigerator, kettle, microwave, massage chair.
The bowl is a kind of without heating. It will be very cold in winter.

Our family of 5 booked the room with an open air bath this January 2025.
We definitely enjoyed our stay. The bath was warm and nice despite the windy and cold weather. The room/s were beautiful, the view of Ise Bay (especially at sunset) was spectacular, and the food was great, especially the dinner. The staff were really accommodating and nice, they even helped us book a taxi to the airport after we checked out.
For those traveling to Shuku Kaifuu by public transportation, I recommend giving them a call before checking in so they could arrange a pick up service from Utsumi (train) station.
Service: The owners are incredibly kind. Both the male and female owners pay close attention to guest service. Thanks to their pleasant hospitality, I felt comfortable throughout my stay, from check-in to check-out.
Facilities: This is an excellent value-for-money ryokan. While it is true that the facilities are dated, that is actually part of its charm. Looking at the Google Maps reviews, most are from local Japanese guests. Their comments suggest that the place evokes the Showa era, and they seem to feel a sense of nostalgia for the past at this accommodation, which is well-maintained despite its age. I highly recommend this place to polite and inquisitive Koreans who wish to experience that old-world atmosphere that Japanese people appreciate.
Location: It is very close to Sakae Station by subway. While it isn't right in the bustling downtown area, you will be fully satisfied with the atmosphere and service at this location and price.
Food: I only had breakfast. It was very neat and healthy-tasting. It truly felt like ”The Ryokan's Breakfast.” 3-Line Summary
1. At this price
2. To think there is a well-maintained, old traditional inn with this service and quality
3. There is no reason not to stay. In fact, please go.
We ask for your polite tourism and consideration to avoid causing inconvenience to others.
It was very beautiful and comfortable. It is also attractive to put it in the hot spring next door! I was happy that I could get a sample of shampoo and conditioner (I don't know if it's an event) for women. It is fully equipped with heating and cooling, but it may be difficult to spend too hot or too cold, so it may be more comfortable to avoid it. The toilet was clean and I enjoyed using the BBQ grill.
Good value with exceptional service
We were extremely satisfied with the services and had a delightful experience in that hotel.
Our package included room, breakfast and dinner. Due to a minor traffic incident, we were unable to meet our dinner time of 6:00 pm. We contacted the hotel and they kindly accommodated us and provided attentive service. We were deeply touched by their care and consideration.
The assistance to report of the traffic incident to the local insurance company was unexpectedly smooth with the help of the staff. The language proficiency of the staff was impressive, as they efficiently resolved language-related issues we faced.
Furthermore, the traditional charm of the hotel exceeded our expectations and added to our enjoyment - good value.
We will recommend the hotel to others and look forward to visiting again in the future.
Special thanks to Ms. Oromo Rie, Mr. Toyama, and the staff responsible for our meals.
As a female solo traveler, I wanted a safe yet authentic Ryokan experience in the city center. This was it! A very nice older couple, a very very clean place. Right next door there is a traditional public indoor bath, which adds more flavor to the experience. Yes, the facilities are a bit old, but I felt clean & the things I need are all there. But yea, gotta keep it super quiet, you can hear ppl going up & downstair, etc, also I booked the room had to share the toilet.
I think it's a good location because it's close to the big shrine I wanted to check out, and also a direct fast train nearby to the airport. For dinner options, recommend this cool old town style place also very nearby, Kanayama Komachi.
Very Good

Outstanding
GGuest UserReally love this place it’s in a really narrow street but right in the middle and next to the Westport the amenities are generous great and I’ve never been in a sauna where you can actually see the ocean. They also have a big cold bath and in addition to do Hansen another hot bath next to the sauna they also play really nice music and From analog amplified hi-fi equipment that is top-notch. It’s a real pleasure, even though I’m not geek in that area.
The whole island is of course very small does not much to do and you have to go there if you really want to relax and just enjoy some seafood. There are not many restaurants in the area and I would recommend to just reserve food at the hotel I had to breakfast, which was outstanding. It was Shabu Shabu tako squid, and lots of other Japanese sites.
GGuest UserIn the city, the accommodation equipment and supporting facilities can still be provided for passengers, especially toiletries and cosmetics, which is worth admiring. The accommodation is equipped with a separate parking location, which is very convenient for loading and unloading luggage. The store will also take the initiative to express concern through phone information, which is very good.
GGuest UserAmazing glamping experience. Waking up from the aroma of wooden tent is simply a blast! Delicious breakfast. Superb bathroom, bedding and everything. We visited Ghibli park next to it in the second day. Only a 6-minute taxi ride!

GGuest UserYou should contact the homestay owner before checking in as they are not always available. I arrived and had to wait 30 minutes before I could check in. The room was spacious, with a shared toilet. The location is near...
555853127You can eat lunch and dinner here. If you can communicate with the language, you can also discuss the food of the meal. If you want to eat anything you don't want to eat, you can ask for it, and it's very cheap.
Although it is a little far away from the pier (5 minutes walk), there is a shuttle bus.
When the first boat arrives on the island, you can store your luggage at the homestay and rent a bicycle for free to explore the island.
The owner of the homestay is a fisherman, and you can eat the fresh seafood of the day at lunch and dinner at the homestay.
Very delicious, absolutely!
