The room was a little small but it had everything we needed.

Love the books theme. The room had books on the shelves to browse and a chair and footstool for reading. There are books you can borrow from the main library in the reception. The breakfast was good too.

As it’s in the action a lot of outside noise. But, headphones in, balcony shut, fridge unplugged, it’s ok. It’s just hot, but there is aircon, if you’re happy with that noise. This might be a me issue 😂

Clean and comfy, right in the action. Helpful happy staff

Nothing.

What a lovely hotel to stay in! We loved the location, the book cafe, the facilities and staff were great. A perfect spot to explore Nagoya and visit the Ghibli theme park. The hotel is just a couple of minutes on the line which takes you to Ghibli park. The room was a good size (for Japanese hotels) and the staff were always helpful and friendly. Plus there were books in the room too.

I like the idea of book sharing. Walkable distance to JR & Meitetsu Bus Station, only 15 mins. And the Metro station just near by the door.

Only two washing machines/dryers for the whole hotel.

Room was modern and spacious. No problems with having our luggage delivered here, and the staff were very helpful in helping us deliver it on to the next location. Staffed 24 hours. Cafe was open late and sold good coffee. Laundry facilities in the lobby. Library was interesting, but obviously all the books were in Japanese. Very close to a metro station.

An excellent location for transport at the train station. The staff were also very friendly and supportive of our needs and requests. The free breakfast was also a bonus!

I was super happy with the location, the hotel is about 15 to 20min walking distance from Nagoya Station, Fushimi Metro station is less than 5min walking distance. Huge thanks to the hotel staff which was super friendly and helpful for my questions in advance! The hotel design is interesting and looks unique, the library in the first floor next to reception and hotel cafe results in a pretty nice and calm welcome! For the room itself, it is concluded in just a few words: Small ... but very well set-up, comfortable bed, small sofa, minibar and a small but functional bathroom. Laundry/dryer machines are available on the ground floor, washing & drying was about 500 Yen. There are some small restaurants near the hotel, more options closer to Nagoya Station. 7 Eleven store is about 3min walking distance, a Lawsone store just across the hotel entrance. For my stay, everything was perfect – I can highly recommend the hotel!

After 4 delightful nights we were left with glowing memories of Nagoya and Lamp Light Books hotel. The book theme that runs from the bookstore with rental books in the lobby, to the key cards, and signage is quirky and adds character. The location was superb for our purposes. It's right beside a quiet tree-filled park and 5 minutes walk from a subway station. That station is only one station away from Nagoya Station which is massive and where all the Shinkansen trains leave from. There are a couple of convenience stores and local Izakaya restaurants close by. Our room had a cute little balcony with sliding doors that allowed airflow. Everything was ultra clean and you could opt for full room cleaning or just getting new towels. The staff are kind, efficient, and welcoming. Highly recommend staying here and exploring underrated Nagoya, especially the SC Maglev and Toyota museums.

Location and breakfast

The breakfest consisting of 2 mini burgers is a weird choice. Although they were tasty, but not very filling.

Nice hotel, loved the books theme. Clean and comfy. Also in walking distance from the main shopping district

It was all pleasant

It was very cozy, the Cafe food was good as well. The ladies at the front desk were always greeting you when you came back in or left. Loved the balcony I had were I could enjoy the brisk japanese night air as I relaxed outside. I usually don't use the public washer/dryer, but these had a locking feature so your clothes were secure. The amazing ladies in front were kind enough to give me change for the machines.

The breakfast portions were a bit small, although it could easily be supplemented by the convenience store across the street if necessary.

The hotel was delightful, the cafe/book store on the ground floor was a very nice space to get a coffee or tea and read a book, and the breakfast was very tasty. The location was also very good, only a short distance from the nearest subway stop. While I did not use the service myself you could borrow books from the cafe to read, even in your hotel room if you wanted, to give it a try before deciding if you wanted to buy it. The rooms themself were also just spacious enough, with a small reading nook with a comfortable chair and reading lamp.

It's quite dusty in the room.

I love how cozy the lobby is! It's a 24 hour book coffee shop, I wish if I spent more days in Nagoya, I would spend one chill evening just to sit down in the lounge, watch the sun go down, read some books and enjoy a cup of coffee.

A wonderful and quaint hotel in a convenient and peaceful part of Nagoya. The building was very clean and modern, and all the facilities were excellent. Friendly and very helpful staff who made our stay even better. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lamp Light Books — this hotel was one of the best we’ve experienced in Japan!

Rooms are quite small, no closet and the fridge does this noise all the time, they should find a solution to fit it on a closed cabinet. Only one lift for all the hotel.

Good place to stay, staff is friendly.

Nothing much to complain about. Maybe the doors could be more sound proof, but then again guests didn't make a lot of noise in the corridor.

Book themed hotel, with a small library in the lobby (and a cafe) and also a reading chair in the room, which I loved. Everything is clean, staff is very friendly and location is pretty good (1 station away from Nagoya main station with a very short walk). If you get a room with a window to the front, you'll actually get a pretty nice view (I was close to the top floor and that was quite nice). You'll enjoy your stay there even if you don't like to read.
