Tokyo hotels

When planning your trip to Tokyo, make sure to keep in mind the dates of any university entrance exams, which are usually held in mid-February. During this time, the city will be packed with young students and their families. Hotels generally fill up very quickly, and it can also be more difficult to make dinner reservations and use public transportation, particularly downtown.

Japanese hotels generally refer to a room for two people as a double, even if it’s two twin-sized beds or one full-sized bed. When you’re making your hotel reservation, make sure to specify the size and number of beds that you would like. Many traditional hotels will have more twin beds than full beds, so you might have to find a hotel chain or 5-star hotel if you’re looking for two full beds.

Looking for an affordable and unique hotel experience? Consider staying in one of Tokyo’s famous pod hotels, such as The Prime Pod Ginza. Pod hotels have become increasingly trendy in the last few years, particularly for those who would like to travel on a budget.

Traveling with your family? Consider staying in the Tokyo Bay area. Tokyo Bay has a large entertainment district and a theme park called Ōedo-Onsen Monogatari. Both the Sheraton and Hilton have locations in Tokyo Bay, and they generally have reasonable rates.

Business travelers should look at hotels in Shibuya. This neighborhood is the major business center of the city, full of skyscrapers and two of the busiest train stations in the world. The Cerulean Tower Tokyu Hotel is a 5-star hotel right in the center of this area.
