Toyama

The price is at least 100 yen cheaper. You can only redeem it at a green automatic ticket machine that can scan passports (at Fukui Station, only machine #5 works, and it must be marked with "5489"). ⚠️ You can select Chinese on the machine. The redemption process is slightly different from what's described in the app. I ended up asking a staff member for help with the redemption, and I found that their sequence was to first scan the passport, then directly select QR code scan, and then follow the prompts to issue the ticket. ⚠️ After the ticket is issued, you need to reinsert it into the machine to select the date and seat. Because I was worried about not being familiar with the process, I exchanged my ticket a day in advance, which was very wise. This way, I wasn't rushed on the day of travel.

A must-buy. For non-reserved seats, avoid rush hour after 5 PM; there are plenty of empty seats, and you don't need to specifically reserve the last row for large luggage. This trip, we flew Tigerair, departing on Sunday and returning on Thursday. We exchanged our tickets at Kanazawa Station, but the machines couldn't issue them, so we had to get a number at the counter and wait for some time. For the return trip, with a lot of luggage, you can take the Shinkansen to Komatsu Station and then a taxi for 2200 JPY. If you're going to Fukui, you can transfer from the Shinkansen to the Echizen Railway without buying another ticket. We originally planned to use the Fukui Pass, but there were no seats available for the new sensation XR bus WOW RIDE. You must visit Aeon and Yamada Denki at Shin-Takaoka Station. The water at Kurobe Gorge Railway wasn't blue, which was a bit disappointing. Be sure to make a reservation for Manpuku Yakiniku; it's a must-try.

Alpen Takayama Matsumoto Pass Review – My Honest Opinion I used this pass during my recent trip to Japan, which included the itinerary: Nagoya → Matsumoto → Alpine Route → Toyama → Takayama → Nagoya. 1. **Fast Delivery of Exchange Voucher:** It was great to receive the pass exchange voucher within two days of ordering. 2. **Easy Exchange for Physical Ticket at Nagoya Station JR Counter:** The process of exchanging the pass at the counter and immediately reserving seats made train travel much more convenient during the trip. 3. **High Utility for Multi-Region Travel:** Since my plan was to travel through Matsumoto, the Alpine Route, Toyama, and Takayama, it was very convenient not to have to arrange separate transportation for each segment. 4. **Beautiful Scenery from the Train:** The views from the train were truly wonderful. There were many sections where I traveled through mountains and natural landscapes, making the journey itself feel like part of the trip. 5. **Excellent Customer Service:** When an unexpected situation arose during my trip, Klook's customer service responded in real-time, allowing me to resolve the issue without much difficulty. 6. **Planning to Use Again:** I was very satisfied with this trip and plan to use Klook again when I visit next time. This is an honest review based on my own purchase and experience.

Dormy Inn Toyama consistently maintains the group's exceptionally high standards! The hotel features very comfortable indoor hot springs and a sauna. After a relaxing soak, complimentary ice cream and lactic acid drinks are provided, along with their signature free late-night ramen. Although it's about a 15-minute walk from JR Toyama Station, the hotel is directly opposite Toyama Castle Park, and there's a tram stop nearby, making it very convenient to access major city attractions. If you're driving, you can enjoy a parking discount of 1,400 JPY per day when parking at the hotel or a nearby partner parking lot. Overall, this place offers excellent value for money!

Tokyo inn Toyama gave me a beautiful hotel experience ever, 2 minute walk to station and convenience store , breakfast has both Japanese style and western style, plus you can explore the good mountain view , I will come back again.

A wonderful hotel with paid parking lots for those who drive. Staff are very friendly and it is close to Toyama Castle and the Matsukawa River to see Sakura.
