The location is convenient, just opposite Omi Town, and it's a quality accommodation experience. The restaurant for breakfast is very beautiful and the food is very exquisite and delicious. I will definitely visit again next time I have the opportunity.

The Hokuriku pass is sent directly to your home or SF Express counter, which is very convenient. When you get to Narita Airport, you can go directly to the Service Center to exchange your card. It's very simple!

A very practical ticket. We took the round trip from Tokyo to Kanazawa and it paid off the ticket price! This time, Kurobe Tateyama was not allowed to use private trains, but he also used this ticket to ride the Shinkansen and JR trains in downtown Tokyo many times.

It is very easy to use. It can be used smoothly from Yokohama in Tokyo to Hokuriku Toyama and Kanazawa Takaoka, and from the Hokuriku area to Keihanshin in Kansai. Highly recommend this seven-day travel pass.

The price is right and it is easy to use. It is a must-have means of transportation for travel. It can be used for four days and basically covers all the places in Ishikawa and Toyama.
