Great location with onsen on the rooftop”

Overall is good. The room is pretty small and the hotel should allow customers to turn down the heater because it was too hot during the night but it was too cold if turn the heater off. Plus, the pillow is VERY flat that I have to put my neck pillow underneath. The rooftop onsen makes it worth to stay. The outdoor one is great. Shampoo, conditioner and body bath are good. However, it was super crowded in the onsen on Saturday night (around 11 pm) that everyone had to queued up to take a shower and get dressed. The location is not too far from Sakae station and have a lot of shops around. If you have many luggage, it is convenient to get the hotel from-to Chubu Centrair Airport by Limousine bus by getting on-off at Nagoya Tokyu Hotel stop which is a 5-min walk to the hotel.

Nice location. Superb breakfast!”

The hotel is 5-10 minute walk from Sakae subway station. If you come with heavy luggage, would recommend to use the exits with escalators or elevators, which will land you inside other building (but you can find your way out just fine), but it's better than lug those bags upstairs. The hotel itself is quite new and located in the middle of nightlife neighborhood, so there're bars everywhere. The room, the bed is quite comfy, but no air humidifier which I think should have been provided during winter. The breakfast was 'The Best'. I loved the traditional Japanese ingredients for the rice very much, especially the black paste. The coffee making machine was awesome. By the way, I happened to have seen the controversial book 'The Real History of Japan' that you purposely placed in the room. It's ABSURD. And since I saw the news that you are going to remove it, I'll have no complaints about this.

Nice Hotel”

So glad I got to stay here. I almost missed the last train from Tokyo to Nagoya and I was so relieved when I made it to the hotel. I really love the bath tub that was in my room. The staff was very nice and accommodating. The bonus is that they had a buffet style breakfast and access to an onsen. My bed was so comfy I didn't want to get up. Not far from central Nagoya. I'd stay here again if I was in the area.

clean rooms”

APA hotel chain, has never failed me. very much satisfied. the location is great, near oasis21, osu kanon temple, nagoya castle. though you may get confused which apa hotel, because there are two apa hotel in the same street. location is great, although there are a lot of bars/clubs in the area.

APA is a great place to stay.”

Of all the APA hotels I've stayed at this one was probably the best. A great spa, with a good size and indoor and outdoor pools. Lovely.. However if you like a firm bed maybe not for you. Very soft comfy beds.

Good Overall but location is a little bad”

The hotel stay was very worth the price, however especially for solo females, I would likely not recommend staying here if you are planning to return to the hotel late at night. There are many clubs and such places located around the venue and when I returned at about 12.30 midnight, there were many people sitting at the sidewalk staring at me, as well as the strong smell of urine when walking to the hotel. However, if you are planning to return maybe in the late evening /before 10pm, the hotel is very comfortable and would recommend

Small business hotel suitable for solo traveler”

Overall is OK. The hotel is small but well equip with necessary facilities, most suitable for solo traveler. Room is a bit small for 2 person, can't even open luggage at the same time. There's no airport bus transfer for this hotel, but one can take airport bus transfer to Chubu International Airport from Nagoya Tokyu Hotel(which is walking distance from APA SAKAE)

Very small but convenient hotel”

Very good hotel indeed. Concerning price, location, room condition, onsen availability , it is almost perfect. But there was a problem,.when we arrived, there was no parking spaces for our car. They asked us to go to another one nearby , but the problem is there is no telephone number for the Carpark for my car Gps and the map is too simple to follow . They should consider to have parking service for oversea traveller and reserve parking space services for family travel.

High performance hotel”

I think this hotel is one of the best performance in regard to the expense. The bed is really comfortable, room is clean, amenities are very well prepared. Also, the open bath is another reason I recommend this hotel. I enjoyed the breakfast very much. It's worth more than 10,000 yen if you choose other hotels.

A bit disappointed at the hotel and the price i paid”

This review is for APA Castle Sakae. Hotel located in the red light district. Beacreful if you are travelling alone at night. The hotel is a bit run down, a bit dirty compare to japanese standard. The hotel parking was full so i need to park my car down the street. Staff of nice and helpful. But i will not return to this hotel.

Clean and modern business hotel”

located a short walk from Sakae train station. Nice hot spring bath.

Great”

APA hotel is a great hotel , but i wish this hotel can provide iron to travelers in the future. thank you.

It's very close to the city center”

The hotel looks quite new and modern. It is also nice that the air-con inside the room is quite strong (you can adjust the temperature by yourself), because I found that many hotels in Japan don't have good air-con (maybe they default a fixed temperature for environmental-friendly reason) which is too hot for a good sleep. You can walk to the subway within 5 min but if you are a singel female traveller you should pay more attention at night, I don't mean it's unsafe but since there are lots of night pubs nearby I would suggest you pick the main roads only.

pleasant short stay”

very convenient to sightseeing in nagoya from this hotel. room a bit small but the bed is quite comfortable.

Recommend for short stay”

The room is way too small that we can hardly lay out our luggage. If you just stay for one to two days, that might not be a problem. But if you plan to stay longer, I believe there are better options in Nagoya. Location and facilities are good though.

Convenient, near to Sakae Station”

Overall pleasant stay. Only con about the hotel is that they have no flexibility in checking customers earlier even if they have rooms. Arriving early and I need to pay 1000yen per hour if I want to check in early.

Small room”

I've stayed in Tokyo many times and I'm used to having a small room but this room was so small, we had trouble negotiating around the room during our stay. We even had difficulties finding space to put our shoes, that we weren't currently wearing. This room was too small for two people. The neighborhood seems to be like Kabukicho, there were unsavory characters on the street corner from the evening until the next morning. The staff were nice and friendly but I will be booking another hotel the next time I visit Nagoya.

Value for money”

10min walk away from the stations and mall A bit confusion when you drive to the hotel as it doesn't have a drop off spot (pretty much the same apply to the hotels in Nagoya)

Good hotel in a great location .”

Nice hotel with the public hotsprings. Always enjoy the stay here n easy to go out for dining or shopping. The room is as usually Japanese style small but all you need are in it. The matress is great and staff are helpful, too.

Value for money”

Near to Sakae, great for shopping!!!
