Nagoya JR Gate Tower Hotel

This hotel far exceeded our expectations! It is in a great location for all your transportation needs. The lobby is located on the 15th floor which means your room is somewhere above that. Our superior twin room was on the 23rd floor and was very nice. The beds were very comfortable and everything was very clean. There were lots of amenities that we made good use of. We appreciated the size of the room that left space for us to easily move around in as well as keep our luggage off to the side. The window view was nice. The buffet breakfast at this hotel is one of the best we've had! Not only was the variety of food choices amazing, but the barista style hand crafted coffee was awesome! A word of caution - the hotel is located above the train station and you can hear the trains at night (freight trains pass through here), but the hotel did let us know ahead of time. It didn't bother us much as we were exhausted from sightseeing and fell asleep almost immediately. If we go to Nagoya again, we would definitely stay here!

convenient location with clean neat rooms. It's above shops and the train station so very easy to get around. Could hear the noisier trains going past but just barely; not enough to be annoying. Was a good breakfast buffet.

Hotel is located beside the Nagoya station and bus terminal where you can take JR trains and buses to other places. It is a short distance walk to the hotel. There are plenty of food choices and there is a Takashimaya mall for your last minute shopping. Check-out is quick n easy where you can just drop off the card into their key box. Hotel staff were very kind to allow us to deposit one of our luggage as we head to Takayama before coming back again.

We stayed here the night after we visited Ghibli park, and chose it for the location and knowing that we would be tired after the park. It was a luxurious and beautifully appointed -- if quite small - western-style room, with a nice view and a comfy bed. There is a shopping mall with an entire floor of restaurants in the same building as the hotel, so you don't need to eat at the hotel restaurant. But we did splurge for the hotel buffet breakfast, which totally delivered for us - It was incredible!

The location is fantastic, well connected with buses, subways, and trains. Just around the lobby, there are pharmacy, convenience store, starbucks cafe. Toiletries provided are beyond expectations. Rooms are clean. Most of the staff are polite and friendly. Well done!
