The views from the upper floors are fantastic! Super convenient location, and there are plenty of shops around the hotel to explore.

Future City Favore
One of the largest shopping malls in the Hokuriku region, located in Fuchumachi, Toyama City. With an Approx. 69,000 sq m commercial floor area, it features a main building, a separate building, and a new wing created during a major renovation in 2019, with around 170 stores in total.
This place feels kind of like a large mixed-use shopping mall. There are tons of stores, and it’s really comfortable to walk around.
You can pretty much take care of everything in one trip—food, clothes, and everyday essentials.
The space is huge, so it doesn’t feel cramped like some city malls in Japan, and it’s easy to get here by car.
It’s not exactly a major tourist attraction, but if you’re nearby and want to cool off, relax, and do a little shopping, it’s actually a great place to wander around slowly. It also seemed pretty popular with locals. -
Basho-an (Creative Wagashi Workshop)
Located in Takimi Koji, a retro-themed street that recreates the atmosphere of old Japan, this traditional Japanese sweets shop has been beloved for generations. Since its founding in 1868, Basho-an has continued to preserve its time-honored production methods.
The warabi mochi is bouncy and rich, and the roasted soybean flour grinding experience is fun.
The flavor is consistently good, but it’s more about the vibe.
Great for photos and a little break. A bit pricey, but worth trying once! -
Hakusan Ichirino Ski Resort
Located near the Ishikawa-side entrance of the Hakusan Shirakami-go White Road, at the foot of the sacred Mt. Hakusan, this is the largest ski resort in Ishikawa Prefecture. The resort offers a wide range of courses for all skill levels, including three steep, ungroomed runs for advanced skiers, several intermediate courses such as the Nodaira slope, and gentle beginner slopes. The kids’ park, packed with fun play equipment, is especially popular for sledding and other activities. Night skiing is also available, allowing families to enjoy skiing together from morning until evening.
Overall it feels really laid-back, not one of those huge, crowded ski resorts.
It’s great if you just want to take it easy and don’t like a lot of noise.
The courses are wide and the slopes are pretty gentle, so beginners or anyone who wants to practice slowly can ski here and feel quite at ease.
