Hotels With Pools in Aichi Prefecture, Japan

This hotel is absolutely gorgeous! From the lobby and guest rooms to the views and facilities, the value for money is simply impeccable! Since I was traveling solo and had no language barriers, I used a combination of public transportation and hiking through farmland and up mountains. It was quite a journey, but the scenery along the way, especially the sudden appearance of the sea at the end, was incredibly refreshing! The hotel actually provides a free shuttle bus to and from the hotel. For pick-up, you need to contact them in advance (I didn't have experience with this). For drop-off/drop-off, you just need to book the night before. Why bother with public transportation?

When I arrived, I dropped my luggage off at the front desk for pre-check-in. Later that evening, after a day out, I went to the concierge. I encountered a girl who, based on her name later, seemed Chinese. I told her in English that I was there to pick up my room key and handed her my passport. She then demanded, “Give me your luggage tag.” I thought she misunderstood and thought I was there to retrieve my luggage, so I reiterated that I was there for my room key. She snapped back impatiently, “That's why I need your luggage tag!” It's perfectly normal for a first-time guest not to know they need a luggage tag to get their room key. Why did she have to be so rude?

I stayed for three nights and was very satisfied. The room was spacious, not cramped at all, and I even got upgraded to a higher floor. It's very close to the Sakae shopping district, with all the malls just about a 15-minute walk away. In the other direction is Shin-Sakae, where you can find quite a few Chinese restaurants. There's a Sugi pharmacy right outside the hotel, which is super convenient for buying cosmetics, daily necessities, and food – I shopped there every day. For breakfast, you can choose between the ground floor buffet or the second-floor Japanese set meal. I'd definitely recommend the buffet on the ground floor; it has a wide variety, including名古屋特色的烤鸡翅 (Nagoya-style fried chicken wings), though it can get a bit crowded. The service was also excellent, absolutely flawless. I'll definitely stay here again if I come back to Nagoya. The only thing to note is that the road leading to Sakae is a gentle uphill slope, which might be a little tiring if you're pushing a stroller.

I made a reservation just because it was cheap, including Vijiho, but it was a very comfortable space. Since it is an adult hotel, the bed was large and I could sleep comfortably. It was good to have breakfast and choose Western or Japanese food.

The service at the reception on the 18th floor and in the rooms was excellent, and the swimming pool and gym staff were also great. However, the service at the Wu Ren (懷石料理) and Italian Cava Nova restaurants was really lacking. For Wu Ren, which is supposed to be a top-tier kaiseki restaurant, the sommelier and the servers bringing dishes had poor English and seemed unwilling to communicate. It felt like they just wanted to drop off the food and leave, expecting guests to read the menu themselves. While this might be acceptable in other casual restaurants, is it the standard for a kaiseki establishment? The hotel should clarify if this is indeed their service protocol. The Italian restaurant was even worse – they offered virtually no service. They were initially friendly, but as soon as they heard English, they immediately said there were no tables available, shooed us away with a gesture, and turned their heads and walked off. The hotel also needs to confirm if this is their standard service procedure for this restaurant.

This is a well-established five-star hotel with an excellent location, right above JR Tower. Below it are several major department stores and the train station, making access very convenient. The biggest highlight is the rooms; if you're high enough, you can enjoy Nagoya's city views day and night. The photos turn out beautifully. I recommend taking some portrait shots in the window-side seating – they come out great. **Service:** We checked in on Valentine's Day, so it was bustling. We had to queue for check-in, but thankfully, the front desk staff were efficient, so we didn't wait too long. However, the downside was room service. As two adults and two children, we needed an extra duvet. After our call, housekeeping promised to send it but an hour passed with no delivery. We called again and still waited. It took at least two hours for it to finally arrive. **Facilities:** It has the standard amenities for a star hotel, with toiletries provided per person, and even individual lotion, which was a thoughtful touch. There was also a humidifier, a common feature in Japanese hotels. I never thought much of it before, but since it was winter and Nagoya's climate was particularly dry, humidification and moisture became especially important. I booked this stay because I wanted to try some of the popular restaurants downstairs, so I didn't include breakfast. But from what I saw passing by, I imagine it would be quite good.

We took a bus from the airport to Nagoya Kanko Hotel, then walked to the Hilton, which took about five minutes even with kids and luggage. We booked a family room. Unfortunately, the first room we were given had a strong smell of cigarette smoke. We requested a room change, and while the second room still had a slight odor, it was much better than the first. If you are sensitive to smells, this hotel may not be the best choice. Other than that, everything is ok.

ok very good .)……………………………………………………very good clean and good service………. tidy…………very good

The hotel isn't far from the subway, but there's no elevator, so you have to carry your luggage up the stairs, which could be an issue if your bags are heavy. It's located on the bustling Sakae shopping street, directly across from Matsuzakaya Mitsukoshi, and just a 10-minute walk from Osu Shopping Street. The hotel is relatively new, with spacious rooms and complete facilities, though they don't offer a common area for guests to relax and have coffee. The restaurant is good, with delicious seafood and meat.

The room is great, and it's a great place to see the sea and feel the beauty of the sea. I will go there again if I have the chance, and I will recommend it to my friends.
