Hotel Route-Inn Toyama Ekimae

A sudden storm occurred around 2 PM, and I was grateful that the front desk kindly stored my luggage. Although I had only used Route Inn when traveling by car due to its limited locations near stations, this hotel is conveniently located about a 5-minute walk from the station and right in front of a tram stop. The Room was thoughtfully designed for convenience, allowing me to relax comfortably with free WOWOW access and national newspapers available. Breakfast included local specialties like firefly squid and trout sushi, which made me happy to experience the essence of Toyama. If I may make one suggestion, there was only one elevator, which sometimes caused waiting or crowding. It would be great if more floors could have accessible stairs as an alternative option.

I stayed here for a game. The price was reasonable as I booked early, and I was satisfied. The hotel is close to the station. I arrived in the afternoon and left my luggage, which was handled kindly. While discussing plans with my companion, we received train tickets that were 100 yen cheaper along with some advice. Thanks to this, we fully enjoyed our time and had a restful sleep at night. Breakfast was delicious, featuring local specialties like kelp-wrapped fish cakes. I heard that Toyama rice has been gaining popularity recently—it truly was tasty! We also left our luggage until the evening again, which they kindly accommodated as well. Both the city and Hotel were quiet and comfortable.This was my second visit, and I was amazed by Toyama's beautiful transformation over the years. On the second day, we saw stunning mountain views; people were kind too—it made for a wonderful trip that left me very satisfied.Since there is no large public bath available, I rated it 4 stars instead of 5 stars.
