One of the best hostels”

WASABI Nagoya is one of the best hostels I've ever stayed. I didn't know there is such a nice hostel very close to Nagoya station. Rooms and all other facilities are really clean and organized. All Japanese style arrangements are quite attractive. Even though I'm Japanese, I was impressed with tatami style capsule dorm, wallpaper designs etc. I highly recommend to stay here when you visit Nagoya.

Great location”

I love the location of this hostel. It is just opposite Nagoya Station, and the entrance to the underground shopping mall ESCA is very close to the hostel entrance. The hostel is very clean as all guests are required to remove their shoes on the ground floor. Each guest is assigned a capsule and every floor has toilets and shower rooms. As a solo traveller, I find sufficient privacy in my capsule. The free wifi is available at every floor and is pretty fast. However, I had trouble accessing the power socket in my capsule as there is a small folding table in front of the socket and I require an adapter between the Japanese 2 pin socket and my British 3 pin plug. My Apple laptop charger cannot fit into the socket due to the folding table. Another minor complaint: Although the hostel is non-smoking, I smelled cigarette smoke in my capsule in the middle of the night. Either a fellow guest just returned to my floor after smoking, or someone was smoking outside the air-con compressors.

Great facilities”

Free miso soup, green tea and black tea! The hostel offers a super deal of meal in Sukiya beside the hostel which costs only 300 or 500 yen per set. My friend and I had a 300 yen set meal (rice, beef slices, egg, miso soup) and we were super satisfied with the portion! Besides, the hostel is super near to the Nagoya station! Overal a Great experience and I will definitely return if I’m going to Nagoya again!

Such a good location ”

Very closed Nagoya station only 5 minutes. Exit Taiko-Dori Side. Go street, cross the street go street turn left at first crossing. Go street only 1 minutes at right side u will see wasabi guesthouse. I stay at upper floor 5th floor specially for girl. Clean place and comfortable. The most good thing is lift inside guesthouse and TV and safety box inside bed space. I haven't seen guesthouse have private TV for guest and inside bed space.

Enjoyed my stay in this hostel”

Great location as it is near Nagoya station, restaurants and shopping centers. Clean rooms, toilets and common area (love the free drinks). The staff is friendly and accommodating. They don't provide slippers but you can buy a pair of disposable slippers from them or you can bring your own. You can't take your luggage inside the rooms. There's a small luggage area in your floor and they will give you cable locks for your luggage. Better get all the stuff you need while staying because it can get troublesome to get your luggage once it is lumped with the other guests' luggage in your floor. If you want to leave your luggage at the hostel to explore the city after checking out, there's a charge of 300 yen per luggage.

Great place! ”

A truly fabulous place to stay. The reception is 24/7 with people who speak great English. The location is literally across the street from Nagoya Station. Everything is very clean. Each capsule includes a private TV, safe, hooks, and hangers. Each floor is a big room and has both a washer and dryer. Has free shampoo, body wash, lotions, hair dryers, nail polish. You can rent bikes and order some basic food from them, and they have machines for free water, coffee, apple juice, and miso soup. The only downside is that the luggage storage area on each floor is definitely small for everyone's stuff so it's hard to get to it sometimes. Would definitely stay here again if I return to Nagoya!

A good choice for a short stay next to Nagoya station. ”

It's very near train station, and near by has many convenient stores, restaurants, bars. So you won't never get hungry, some resto open until late night. A good choice if you need a short stay in Nagoya. I stayed in girls' dorm, the capsule is enough for sitting (so you can package your backpack or small bags. The larger luggages need to put at commune storage space, if you are worry, you Dan bring a lock to lock your luggage. The restrooms and bathrooms are very comfortable, hug, light, clean and the hostel give some bath needs (shower, shampoo, cotton bud..etc) for travellers to use freely. There's a Lawson just at the street corner. Oh and if you don't mind, It is next to a sexy DVD rental store haha. It gives an eye-catching sign, easy to find the hostel.

Great location, cute hostel and really good value for money. There are a bunch of convenience stores around and is very close to Nagoya station. You can even rent a bike from them, I believe, although we did not try it. It is a bit weird though when we got up at 5am, used the bathroom in the mixed dorm, and there is a group of older ladies cooking breakfast (yes, in the shower area) so it was really hard to move around since they were occupying the walkway which was already pretty narrow to begin with. I am not sure if the staff is aware but it should be restricted and there is a pantry area in the ground floor anyway.

Hostel Wasabi is very nice located. Near the Nagoya station. It was very clean and cosy. The personnel staff were very helpful. Highly recommended!

good location, small but clean and equipped, nice ”

To be honest, the first time arrived at Wasabi I got totally lost. Its location is good, but you need to find the right path. The front desk staff is friendly, can speak little English. This time is mainly staying overnight for BIGBANG's concert, it's very lucky the hostess also is a fan. The capsule bed looks small, but comfortable enough considering the price. I am 175cm tall, slept well and enjoyed local TV drama that night. Bathrooms are clean, with considerate skin-care lotion and water.Free tea and water is provided. Really appreciate for keeping my luggage until 21：30 on concert night for free. The concert and stay at Guesthouse Wasabi have both left unforgetable memory on my mind. Next time travelling alone will still choose Wasabi.

Great hostel with high-cp value!”

Close to the Nagoya Station (about 5 min walk) Staff speaks English like native. Though I see air purifier in room, I was triggered into allergic stuffed nose during those days I stayed. To sum up, cheap and high-cp hostel with kind and adorable staff for backpackers . Large-sized bed makes you feel relaxed every night. Just give it a try when you visit Nagoya!

One of the best! 💗”

Wasabi is one of the best hostels that I have ever stayed at. It’s clean, comfy, safe and convenient. The staff are very friendly, too! I’ll be staying here again when I go back to Nagoya.

Good Accommodation”

What i like: - Strategic location, very near to JR Nagoya station. - Cheapest price compare to other hostels. - Accommodation fully equipped with all necessities. What i dislike: - Room space small & not easy for movement. - No free luggage storage even informed we will check-in again after next day.

perfect for its facilities, value for money, location, cleanliness, staff ”

two thumbs up for this guesthouse, i strongly recommend for eveyone because all you are searching in a hotel are here. you get more than you are expecting for. The restroom/toilet facilities are fantastic and very clean that you can even sleep there because of its cleanliness. location is just across the nagoya main(central) station. there are many shops and convenience store around the guesthouse. Staff are accomodating. the rooms are large. There are large restrooms with hairdryers. Toothbrushers with toothpaste are offered free so what are you waiting for? the entrance of the ESCA underground shopping center is just few meters from this guesthouse so come to this place and experience too a convenient and an amazing stay...

value for money ”

this place was less than 5 mins walk from the taikou dori exit of nagoya station. check in was simple and u get a chain to lock your suitcase in the common area of the floor you are assigned to. I was on the ladies dorm on the 5th floor and there is lift in the building. the capsule was tall enough, has a TV and earphones, two hangers and some ports for me to charge. like the other capsules I have been to, you get clean sheets and you have to make your bed and futon. what I like most is perhaps the common areas: my floor had a rack full of comics, safety box (need to pay for usage ) . the washrooms were fantastic too . my floor had two toilet cubicles and 3 showers and I never had to queue to wait for any. toiletries were provided. there were big mirrors and seats in the toilet for ladies to do their makeup etc. this place keeps luggage for you at 300 yen a day after checkif you had booked via other sites but free if you had booked directly with them

Good value, well equipped, comfy and very clean”

This capsule hostel is amazing, 10 mins walk from nagoya JR station. The hostel is very clean, the capsule bedsit is very roomy and comfortable, even equipped with a flat screen TV and a computer with a keyboard and mouse. Bathroom has face cleanser, bodywash, shampoo and hair conditioner. Absolutely great value for money.

this hostel is very conveniently located next to Nagoya station and many restaurants. the staff is very friendly and can speak English. i stayed in the capsule style mixed dorms and they were very cozy and private. i recommend this hostel to any travelers.

Sweet capsule experience close to Nagoya station”

The place is close to Nagoya Station but a little hard to find. The staff were super friendly and polite. The facilities were modern and clean and some capsules have tvs and pcs you can use. Good wifi and hot showers. Didn't see or hear much from other guests. Would definitely stay agai if I'm in Nagoya.

Convenient Place in Nagoya”

Place has a really good location. Near nagoya JR station and the bus center. Place is also well maintained. Only downside is that there is a limited shower stalls on the female dormitory floor so expect a long queue on the morning or at night. I had to go to a different floor to shower sometimes via the fire exit as you cannot use the elevator it requires specific key card per floor. Each bunk bed has a safe, computer and tv which is a good thing. Except there were some guest that don't use the headphones when they watch it. It can be irritating to hear when you wanted to sleep. Had to tell them to use the headphones, maybe tell the guests about this when they check in. Also there is only 1 electric outlet in the bed that you can use. You cannot remove the plugs of the tv or the computer even if you dont use them. Such a hassle in charging your phone, wifi, cameras or tablets.
