Experience of the stay
This time, I stayed to enjoy a leisurely hotel time as I live in Nagoya city, not as a traveler.
It takes about 7 to 8 minutes on foot from the nearest subway station, Fushimi Station, so walking in the scorching summer heat made me sweat a lot.
However, the room I stayed in had a separate bathroom from the toilet, and after checking in, I filled the bathtub with warm water and took a long relaxing bath. I washed away the sweat, and afterward enjoyed a comfortable hotel life.
I immersed myself in my hobby of handicrafts and enjoyed a relaxing time without having to do housework, eating the lunchbox and side dishes I bought from the basement department store when I got hungry or watching TV. (I handled the needles used for handicrafts with great care to avoid dropping or losing them, and I checked thoroughly when I left.)
There is a cafe on the first floor of the hotel, but I did not use it, and had breakfast in my room, enjoying hotel life until just before check-out time.
The room was small enough to be filled with beds, but it was spacious enough for me to spend time alone. If used by two people, it might feel cramped. The mint blue decor of the room is cute and seems to be particularly appealing to women.
Experiences during the trip
I arrived at the hotel in the morning and first left my luggage. I went to Nagoya Station, which is one stop from Fushimi Station, and had a Chinese porridge lunch at 'Tong Chao' in Takashimaya. I'm glad I was able to go to a store I had always wanted to visit on this occasion. Both the porridge and the mango pudding dessert were delicious.
After lunch, I strolled around a bit for shopping, and finally stopped by the basement department store to buy dinner, breakfast for the next morning, and some sweets before returning to the hotel.
The next morning, I had a light breakfast and thought I'd go to a nearby cafe called 'BUCYO COFFEE' (Buchoo Coffee) to eat delicious Ogura toast, which is a 3 to 4 minute walk from the hotel. However, because it was during the summer holiday period, there were many tourists, and there was a long line! I was surprised that it was so popular.
I gave up this time and quickly returned to the hotel, enjoyed the complimentary drip coffee available in the lobby, and had a sweet time in my room with the macarons I bought from the basement department store the day before.
Nearby the hotel, there are also Komeda Coffee and 'Kohi Tsu Karasu,' a cafe visited by Goro Inokashira from the drama 'Kodoku no Gourmet,' making it a well-located hotel to enjoy Nagoya's coffee culture.
If it is a cool season, those who enjoy walking or have fewer belongings can walk from Nagoya Station to the hotel; it is a possible distance. Walking along the Horikawa river by Nayarabashi seems charming as well.
