Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No elevator — The building lacks a lift, so guests with heavy luggage or mobility issues may find stairs a challenge. Staff are happy to help carry bags.
  • Strict check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 20:00. Late arrivals may need to plan ahead, as the desk won't be staffed after 8pm.
  • Dormitory-style rooms may lack privacy — Though beds have curtains, shared dormitories mean limited personal space and potential noise. Private rooms are available but fewer in number.
  • No pets allowed — The hostel does not accommodate pets, so travellers with animals need to look elsewhere.

“My few nights at Travellers in Nagoya were wonderful. The staff were warm and supportive, and the bed was so comfortable that I slept well every night. Bathrooms were spotless. The free breakfast with assorted breads and freshly brewed coffee was a nice touch. I’d happily come back if I’m in Nagoya again.”

“A brilliant stay! The staff were incredibly friendly and even arranged activities and outings. The cute illustrations and maps helped us get around, and the location was perfect — a short walk to Sakae Station with buses and trains to everywhere. No elevator, but staff gladly helped with luggage. Toilets and showers were always clean, and the curtains on dorm beds gave real privacy. Great value.”
