[2025 Nagoya Stay] Travel Guide for Courtyard Nagoya (Updated May)

Ladies and Gentlemen, Nagoya is not some boring little town, it is clearly a treasure trove of hidden surprises! For those who are visiting Nagoya for the first time, please save this super detailed 3-day, 2-night guide to experience the unique charm of Nagoya in depth! Transportation Guide ✈️Central Japan International Airport: About 40 kilometers from downtown Nagoya, you can take the Central Japan International Airport Line and reach the city center in about 40 minutes. You can also book a high-speed bus in advance on the jrc Japan website. The price is more affordable than the Shinkansen and the journey takes about 2.5 hours. There is wireless wifi, charging sockets and toilets on the bus, and the bus will stop at the Konan Service Area for a rest. 🚇City transportation: Nagoya subway is very convenient. Buy a one-day pass (about 760 yen) and you can ride it as many times as you want within 24 hours. You can easily visit various attractions and save a lot of taxi money. Must-visit attractions Atsuta Shrine (Day 1 morning): One of the oldest shrines in Japan, it houses the sword of Yamato Takeru, one of the three sacred treasures of Japan. The shrine has ancient buildings and large green areas, making it a great place for walking. Osu Kannon Temple & Osu Shopping Street (Day 1 afternoon): Kannon Temple is very popular, and if you are lucky you may even come across a flea market. After visiting the temples, you can go straight to eating mode. A variety of special snacks and trendy goods will satisfy your taste buds and shopping desires in one stop. Nagoya Castle (Day 1 evening): Nagoya’s iconic building, one of Japan’s three most famous castles along with Osaka Castle and Kumamoto Castle. Although the castle tower is temporarily closed, it is still great to admire the castle architecture and feel the historical charm from outside, and you can also try the matcha ice cream inside. Nagoya TV Tower (Day 1 evening): A landmark of Nagoya, you can overlook the entire city from the top of the TV tower. When the lights come on, the night view is super beautiful. There are also many hidden coffee shops under the tower. Inuyama Castle (Day 2 morning): This castle is full of historical charm. The surrounding castle town retains the architectural style of the Edo period. You can rent a kimono to experience the feeling of traveling through time and space, and you can also try the local Hida beef sushi. Legoland (Day 2 afternoon): The second Legoland in Asia, with more than 40 rides and large Lego installations, both children and adults can have a lot of fun. Shirakawa-go (Day 3, all day): A world cultural heritage, the architecture of Gassho Village is super unique, like walking into a fairy tale world. You can enjoy cherry blossoms in spring, maple leaves in autumn, and the lighting ceremony in winter. It is so beautiful. It is recommended to set off early in the morning to avoid the afternoon tour groups. Food Recommendation Hida Beef: Japan's top beef, as famous as Kobe and Matsusaka beef, the meat is tender and juicy, and melts in your mouth. Be sure to find an authentic restaurant to try it. Three ways to eat eel rice: eat it as is, add ingredients to mix it with rice for a richer taste, add tea to make a soup that is refreshing and less greasy. One serving of rice, three kinds of enjoyment. Miso Udon: The rich and mellow miso soup, paired with the chewy udon noodles, every bite is super satisfying, warming both the body and the heart. Accommodation suggestions It is recommended to stay near Nagoya Station. Transportation is very convenient, whether taking the subway, Meitetsu or JR, it is very convenient. There are also shopping malls such as Takashimaya and Meitetsu Department Store nearby, with many shopping and dining options. For example, Sky Tower Prince Hotel, Mitsuigarden Hotel Nagoya Premier, and Courtyard by Marriott all have good locations and facilities. Note: Nagoya Castle is not open at night, so you can’t take photos of the night view. It is recommended to enter from the side door during the day, which is closer. Although the Nagoya subway is convenient, you still need to take the bus to some places. Please prepare change or transportation card in advance. Japan has strict garbage classification, so don’t litter. Finish your food in the store and avoid eating while walking. If you want to go to Osu Kannon Temple to get an amulet, try to go early as it may be closed after 5pm. Don't bring meat products and fruits into the country as the inspection is very strict.

#accommodationtrip I visited Courtyard by Marriott Nagoya for the first time in a while, and it was very comfortable, including the hospitality. It is also a good value for money, so I would recommend it not only to Nagoya travelers but also to locals who are working remotely or for vacations. The restaurant and bar were so relaxing that I ended up staying until the very end. Located in the center of the city, it is convenient to access major areas of Nagoya, such as Nagoya Station and Sakae area from the nearest subway station Fushimi Station. At the all-day dining restaurant "CRUST" on the first floor, you can enjoy an antipasto corner full of vegetables and desserts made by the pastry chef. The lunch buffet is a highlight, as you can enjoy everything from appetizers to desserts, including a live station where the chef prepares the food right in front of you. The rooms are compact, clean, bright, and easy to use, with high-quality beds that allow you to sleep well, a bathroom with a rain shower, and cushions made with "Arimatsu Shibori", a traditional Nagoya craft. Although it just opened in March 2022 and everything is new and clean, you can stay here quite reasonably, even though hotel prices have risen recently (when I checked a few days ago, it was 22,800 yen for two people per room. Prices vary). This price is really the best value for money for this cleanliness and hospitality. If it was in my hometown, I would like to stay there once a month, from check-in at 3pm to check-out! (Actually, my friend in Nagoya seems to do a staycation once a month lol. I'm jealous.) And now, for a limited time until August 31st, they are holding an afternoon tea in collaboration with Mary Quant. You can still enjoy a wonderful afternoon tea even after the collaboration period is over, so be sure to check it out. It's a hotel that is "worth more than its price" and is highly recommended for both locals and travelers, as well as for those who only want to use the restaurant and bar. ------------------------- "Courtyard by Marriott Nagoya × Mary Quant" Collaboration Afternoon Tea Set "English Garden Party" (Part 1: 12:00~14:00) ¥6,500 (Tax and service charge included) [MENU] ('24/6/1~8/31) Potted Tiramisu Pistachio Macaroons Mixed Fruit Jelly Muffin with Papillon Chocolate Champignon-Style Strawberry Mousse Honeybee Citrus Honey Tart Scones Roast Beef Sandwich with English Muffin Fresh Garden Salad 2-hour rotation system (Part 1: 12:00~14:00, Part 2: 14:30~16:30) ----------------------------- All-day Dining "CRUST" [Weekdays No Time Limit] Lunch Buffet Adult ¥4,800 (Tax and service charge included) Children (6-12 years old) ¥2,400 (tax and service charge included) [Weekends and holidays] Adults ¥5,300 (tax and service charge included) Children (6-12 years old) ¥2,650 (tax and service charge included) 11:30-15:00 (last entry 14:00, last meal served 14:30) . . . . . . . . . . #NagoyaHotel#CourtyardByMarriottNagoya #CourtyardByMarriott#MarriottBonvoy #courtyardbymarriott #courtyardbymarriottnagoya

The other day, I used the Prefectural Resident Discount to stay at the Courtyard Nagoya, a Marriott hotel that opened in Nagoya last year. As it is still new, the rooms and facilities were spotless and very nice. The breakfast in particular had eel omelettes, Kishimen noodles, and chicken wings. It is in the Nayabashi area, so there are many shops, and it is convenient because it is close to Nagoya Station. #Prefectural Resident Discount #Hocanes #Nagoya #Marriott #Courtyard

It is within walking distance to shopping and restaurant areas and Fushimi Subway Station. The surrounding environment is quiet. As it is a four-star hotel under Marriott Bonvoy, the hardware and service quality are guaranteed to a certain extent. The hotel was completed not long ago, the facilities are brand new, the space is full, and the rooms are spacious and comfortable. The hotel gives people a sense of light luxury and modern style.

#日本KoreaDowntownHotel #JapanTravel #Nagoya The hotel belongs to the four-star brand of Marriott Group and was officially opened last year. It is located between Nagoya Station and Fushimi Subway Station. Both can be reached on foot, and the transportation is convenient. There are also large supermarkets, department stores and restaurants nearby for tourists to enjoy. Really appreciate it👍👍👍 The room size is very spacious for Japan, and the design is simple and comfortable with a touch of modern Japanese style. The bedding materials are of a relatively high level, and the in-room equipment is fully equipped. Of course, there is no need to worry about the service level of the hotel managed by the Marriott Group. The service staff's English proficiency is also at a communicative level. The room rate of 7-8 hundred yuan per night is quite reasonable. 🫰🫰🫰 Personal stay experience re-rating 4.8/5⭐

2022/12/19 Stayed at Nagoya Mangi, all the hotel colleagues were very polite and professional. This time I stayed in a double room with one large bed. Although the room was not big, it was quite clean. The breakfast is also varied and rich, and the quality is up to par. And Don Quixote is right across the street 😂 which is a big plus 👍 #Nagoya #Bangi
