Karen no Yakata

Location is very near the train station, a Donki shop, and a long row of shopping malls and popular Japanese goods. The block where it’s at, though, seems to be a popular hangout for the younger generation and there are trash and cigarette butts all around. The rest of Nagoya isn’t as littered or noisy as this corner. There also seems to be an occasional sewer smell in the area. The hotel tries its best to satisfy customers so if being in a hangout area isn’t an issue to you, it is a good option.

The hotel features large updated rooms with windows on the bay so it is delightful watching the sun rise and moon from the comfort of your room. The hot baths are excellent. The dinners and breakfasts vary every day and are both outstanding. The price for all this is reasonable. And, let’s not forget the free shuttle to the train station. I felt that staff was over worked and I’m not sure if there were enough staff people.

Very unique, beautiful rooms, staff very friendly and go out of their way to be helpful. Great location.
