"至れり尽せりの非常にいいお宿でした！一階のラウンジでは時間帯によって、ちょっとした食べ物やドリンク、お酒がフリーで提供されています。オーシャンビューで窓も広く、一日ラウンジにでまったりしてもいいくらいです。お部屋もオーシャンビューで広くて綺麗で、専用の露天風呂が付いています。ネスプレッソや雪肌精が置いてあるのも嬉しい！また、大浴場も色々な種類のお風呂がありますし、湯上がりスペースでもアイスや飲み物、夜鳴きそばの提供まであります！色んなものがありすぎて、全部味わいきれなかったのが残念です。屋上に上がって、満点の星空も楽しむことができました。スタッフさんの対応も非常に丁寧でとても良かったです。大満足です！最後に。能登はまだまだ復興途中だと感じました。是非能登に行っていただきたいです！"

"Good location and friendly staff."

HOTEL VISCHIO TOYAMA by GRANVIA

Hotel JAL City Toyama

10/10 Excellent

"Like the convenience for its close proximity to JR ststion. Besides, the room was spacious, clean and the satisfactory aircon performance."

Toyama Excel Hotel Tokyu

10/10 Excellent

"This was honestly a 10 out of 10 stay. Don't hesitate to book. What makes this place so special is the staff. They really go out of their way to help you! For example, the staff were able to reserve an authentic top level izakaya at the last minute. They also gave us free tram tickets to visit Iwase. The location is super convenient right by JR Toyama stn. Lastly, the room has 3 twin beds. A rarity in Japan. I will definitely be staying at this hotel again the next time I visit Toyama."

Tennen Onsen Toyama Tsurugi no Yu Onyado Nono

10/10 Excellent

"This place was really great. It’s not a full service spa but it has a nice onsen. And it has amazing Massage chairs. The breakfast was really stunning. A nice buffet. That’s true Japanese food and the rooms are really nice. They’re small but they’re mighty. Highly recommend."

APA Hotel Toyama Ekimae

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable, clean, great sento, and food was awesome. My go-to stay whenever I’m in Toyama."

Toyoko Inn Toyama Station Shinkansen 2

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great location for exploring Toyama and the alpine route. The hotel is right across from the station. The breakfast was amazing. My son is allergic to all nuts but almonds and he could eat there. Of course ask the staff first because the menu can change. They stored our luggage before check in. The room was clean and comfortable. Lastly the staff is absolutely amazing. Especially Okino. I accidentally left a medication I needed in the refrigerator. She made sure I recieved it even calling the next hotel I was at and working with them, which was not easy. And arranged all the delivery details. Then sent me the kindest note with the medication wishing me to take care of myself. I have never had a more accommodating staff."

"Clean room, close to station"
