Good place to stay in. And the owner is very helpful and kind too. They let us leave our luggage before our check in day as we are going to Tokyo for 2 nights. Though there is no elevator in the facility, they helped us with our luggage going up to third floor. The shared bathroom and shower was also clean. Wifi works well also in our room. Overall, it was worth all the penny. :)

A slightly unusual small inn in a downtown shopping street near Nagoya Station.

Opened in April 2015. Located in Endoji Shopping Street, one of the oldest shopping streets in Nagoya, this is a slightly unusual inn that has been renovated from a coffee shop with a history of nearly 100 years and an electric shop.

Amazing staff and very good cafe for breakfast.

    Great location, very helpful people, I had a bunk bed which was like a capsule, they have a washing machine and dryer to use for a small fee, I was able to drop my bag off, check in was easy, the bed and everything was super clean. They run a cafe as well and I was sad that I didn't leave enough time to eat here. The location is fantastic, just 15 minutes from Nagoya castle I highly recommend visiting. Loads of shops and restaurant around. Looked like a great place to hang out.

    Great location as the hostel is very close to Nagoya station. We really loved the feature of opening a "window" to your neighbour/partner, which you can request while booking 2 capsules. It was really clean and the showers and toilets worked great. Great value for money!

    Great location! Convenient near the station, super cheap price for how nice the rooms were! Genuinely exceeded our expectations, lovely clean rooms with a bunch of movie options. My bro and I found a really nice katsu place just down the road which was great.

    During my stay at Glocal Nagoya Backpackers Hostel, I was grateful that I was placed near the window, providing ample space for luggage organization. The reliable wifi in the pantry area was convenient for staying connected. Above all, the exceptional hospitality of Icchan, the owner, made me feel welcomed and at home throughout my stay. I highly recommend this place for its cozy atmosphere and personal touch.

    That was the best hostel I've been to in Japan! The owner (who is SO NICE) was/ is a traveler too and you see that! Everything is well organized and has everything you need as a backpacker. the rooms are big and so comfortable. The kitchen/ lobby was amazing and the food/ coffee in the Café was delicious. I would definitely come back and never stay somewhere else.

    One of my best hostel experiences in Japan! The staff was super nice and made me feel at home. The cafe downstairs was very cozy and the staff there was also very nice. The rooms were comfortable, but there weren't a lot of beds per room (I had 2 bunk beds) so if you make good friends with your roommates, it's almost like you're back at summer camp. The kitchen was well equipped and was a nice meeting place to talk to other guests. Thank you for having me!
