Here is my informational thread on NGO:

You can also find a LOT more information by navigating to the Destinations >> The World : Japan forum and searching on either NGO, Centrair, or Nagoya.
Generally, the Meitetsu express train is the best alternative for travel from NGO to Nagoya. It is easy to catch right at the airport. As for hotels, there are many near the train station. Marriott has an arrangement with a luxe hotel right in the station building but it is expensive. Hilton is a short cab ride away.
