Access for the 8th Face to face meeting: Aug 1 - Aug 3, 2013 @ University of Toyama

From abroad to Tokyo or Osaka

You will arrive at Narita International airport (NRT, English) or Kansai International Airport (KIX, English). If you choose Narita (Tokyo), you will go to Toyama by train of airplane. If Kansai (Osaka), you will go to Toyama by train.

  • After you arrive at Narita (Tokyo),
    • if you adopt train for Toyama, you are going to center of Tokyo. There are two stations in Narita airport (Narita Airport station (Terminal 1) and Airport terminal 2 station). At both the stations, you take Narita Express (JR line, about 1 hour (about 3000Yen) to Tokyo station,English) or Skyliner (Keisei-line, about 40 minutes (2400 Yen) to Keisei Ueno station, English)

    • if you adopt airplane for Toyama, you are going Haneda airport (unfortunately, there is no direct flight between Narita and Toyama). The easiest way is that you take

Access Express (Keisei-line, English) at Narita Airport station (Terminal 1) and Airport terminal 2 station. It takes 1.5 hours (1740Yen) to Haneda Airport and you do NOT NEED to transfer.

The best way is that you reserve hotel near Toyama station. There are a lot of hotels, shops and restaurants there. It takes about 20 minutes from Toyama station to University of Toyama by tram or car.

I am not so sure that staffs of hotels can speak English because I have never asked something at Japanese hotels in English. In some hotels, you can ask in English. But I am afraid that such hotels are expensive.

Hotels which KAGRA and CLIO collaborators often stay

These hotels are near Toyama station.

  • Concept Hotel Wakyu(Japanese,English). This is Japanese style hotel. I mean that it is different from European style.

  • Hotel Relax Inn Toyama(Japanese).

  • Hotel alpha one (Toyama station branch)(Japanese).

If you would like to be sure that staffs can speak English ...

  • ANA Crowne Plaza Toyama (Japanese,English). It is slightly far from Toyama station (15 minutes on foot).
