For the first time in the Hokuriku region, there will be a hotel in the Hilton family.
The name of the hotel is “Doubletree by Hilton Toyama”.
When is the Doubletree by Hilton Toyama due to open?
The construction of the DoubleTree by Hilton Toyama began in October 2020 with a safety ceremony and is expected to open in the first quarter of 2023, although the contract signed in 2019 was for 2022, probably due to the delay caused by the Corona disaster.
The project is a partnership between Osaka-based Ikeda Hotel Management Co. and Hilton Japan, Korea and Micronesia, with construction by Fujita Corporation.
Where will the DoubleTree by Hilton Toyama be located?
The DoubleTree by Hilton Toyama is conveniently located just a few minutes’ walk from the south exit of Toyama Station, making it easy to get to Toyama Castle, the Toyama City Glass Art Museum and other tourist attractions, as well as other places in Toyama. We hope you enjoy your stay in Toyama.
What will the Doubletree by Hilton Toyama be like?
The 13-storey hotel will have a total of 201 rooms, a restaurant and bar, a fitness gym, a large public bath and meeting rooms, making it ideal for both families and businesses

Double tree welcome cookie recipe
A special feature of the Doubletree is the welcome drink, or rather the welcome chocolate chip cookie.
I’m curious to see how the Doubletree chocolate chip cookies taste, but the recipe was published on the website, so if you’re interested, why not give them a try?
Makes 26 cookies
½ pound butter, softened (2 sticks)
¾ cup + 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
¾ cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 ¼ teaspoons vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 ¼ cups flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
Pinch cinnamon
2 2/3 cups Nestle Tollhouse semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 3/4 cups chopped walnuts
Cream butter, sugar and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes.
Add eggs, vanilla and lemon juice, blending with mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, then medium speed for about 2 minutes, or until light and fluffy, scraping down bowl.
With mixer on low speed, add flour, oats, baking soda, salt and cinnamon, blending for about 45 seconds. Don’t overmix.
Remove bowl from mixer and stir in chocolate chips and walnuts.
Portion dough with a scoop (about 3 tablespoons) onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper about 2 inches apart.
Preheat oven to 300°F. Bake for 20 to 23 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and center is still soft.
Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet for about 1 hour.
Cook’s note: You can freeze the unbaked cookies, and there’s no need to thaw. Preheat oven to 300°F and place frozen cookies on parchment paper-lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake until edges are golden brown and center is still soft.

From Nagoya, it takes about 4 hours to get to Toyama Station by the “Wide View Hida” limited express train, which does not require a transfer.
From Osaka, take the limited express to Kanazawa Station and then change to the Hokuriku Shinkansen, which takes about 3 hours.
By car, it takes about 4 hours from Tokyo to Toyama Station via the Kanetsu Expressway, Joetsu Expressway and Hokuriku Expressway, about 3 hours from Nagoya via the Meishin Expressway, and about 4 hours and 15 minutes from Osaka via the Meishin Expressway.
