Agreed! Stayed in the GINZA area, lots of shopping and stuff while still a relatively quiet area :)

Wrong info. You should stay at Ikebukuro area. Especially hotels like Sunshine City or Tokyo Metropolitan Hotel, just a two to three minutes walk ftom the station to catch the Yamanote line 山手線 which is the same line and only a few stations away from major stations like Shinjuku, Ginza, Shibuya, Harajuku, Ueno and Tokyo stations. And Ikebukuro generally is cheaper than Shibuya or Shinjuku areas. And there are direct buses from Narita and Haneda airport that literally stopped in front of Sunshine City Hotel and Tokyo Metropolitan Hotel, e.g. Bus stop 17 at terminal 2 at Narita Airport.

I live in Tokyo. I highly recommend you to stay in Shinjuku area near the train and metro 🚇 stations. Nishi Shinjuku is a freat area. The restaurants and bars, izakaya are open till dawn and you can get drunk and take a taxi or walk back to the hotel.

Ginza is a nice place to stay!!! But I think Ikebukuro is nice as well that was where we stayed lol. But yeah there's so much things to see at Ginza love the GU shop there

Another place to consider is asakusabashi, tonnes of transport links and super quiet with plenty of hotels and places to eat

I was in Japan twice before, back in 97 and 99, both times we stayed in Ikebukuro due to a place being recommended there and I didn't mind it not being a hotel but rather a ryokan-style place. We had only a few minutes of walking to get to the station and Yamanote line so it was convenient. This was many years ago but I'm considering staying there again when I go there again soon, probably same place in Ikebukuro because I liked it. though that place is not for those that wish to have a big room with ordinary beds - we slept on ftons on the tatami-covered floor :) I slept well!

We stayed at Kanda, 1 station away from Tokyo Station, the imperial Palace, and Akihabara, very close to Asakusa as well, even though Shibuya or Shinjuku would take upwards of 20 minutes to reach. Also a chill place and very economical. Some people might find Ginza quite unaffordable as it is known as the luxury district

Shinjuku is great, lots to explore around food and tons of food options open late

I tend to disagree. Very convenient, but also the most expensive and smallest hotel rooms. I prefer to stay in Shinjuku. Much cheaper and still plenty to do and eat nearby

I actually really like Minato! Odd choice for tourists, but it is a very nice area. It is near several lines as well.

For a first timer I’d say Shinjuku or Shibuya. I stayed at Shinjuku and most lines connect at Shinjuku station.

We stayed in Akihabara! It's great if you have teenagers and it's a lot cheaper than Ginza.

@vaneepham5847

Could you recommend a hotel in akihabara we have teenagers too and don't know where to start

Not to mention Ginza itself is the og luxury shopping district. More than Omote Sando I would even say.

If you're there for the nightlife, i recommend Shinjuku. There are quite a few hotels right next to the station

Japan is beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Asakusa is my favorite to place stay. Right here rn. I always come back to Asakusa for hotel

My first day after landing at tokyo i headed to Ueno. Ueno is not bad too. It has lot of metro line intersection at ueno station, but it's not too busy or crowded during peak hours. It has few attractions and food nearby.

Agree! Is also on the same train love as Haneda so no transfers after a long flight. I love ginza

I ❤ TOKYO JAPAN...I FEEL AT "HOME" THERE

Yeah ❤

Ginza is an expensive area to stay at, i would suggest Kanda or Asakusabashi

for those who has zero Japanese speaking skills i would recommend to stay at Roppongi area, the area is famous for bars and food and easy English access, also you get great view of Tokyo Tower.

woahhh, thank you!

Que lindo vivir ahí

My family lived in Ikegami so we stayed with them, which was also on the train line. Ginza was not far from Ikegami for us. Ikegami also has Honmonji temple where I had a paranormal experience 😅

Akasaka-Mitsuke is the area to stay. Pretty much bag in the middle of all the tourist spots in Tokyo and so so much cheaper than Ginza.

fail to mention if u stay at shibuya /ginza the space in the hotel rooms are very small vs hotels of the same price on the outskirts of ginza shibuya

Hearing GINZA line gives me persona 5 flashbacks

👍 Agree

Ginza is for the rich boys. I would recommend asakusa and ikebukuro. But actually... Just look for any hotel with good ratings. Tokyo has so many places to explore. Just go somewhere and you will find new things along the way!

I ❤❤❤ and miss those places❤❤❤. When will I visit you again Tokyo,Japan 🇯🇵 ❤❤❤

Since hotel prices are so volatile, I recommend just searching your favorite station and stay 1 station away (big stations can be hectic to navigate and it doesn't show on google maps) I'd rather be a station away then transfer

I stayed at Shin-okachimachi which is not far from Ginza.

the best site to stay is...near jr rails

It’s my fourth time in Tokyo, I’ve stayed at Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, and Sangenjaya before. Decided to stay in Ginza this time because I wanna go cocktail bar hopping at night, and I wanna be within walking distance to these bars! 😂 But Ginza is great for all those reasons you mentioned, it’s easy access to everywhere else in Tokyo, and it’s not as chaotic as Shibuya and Shinjuku. First timers who are from a busy city would probably be overwhelmed by Shibuya and Shinjuku stations!

Have you heard about the SOTETSU FRESA GINZA NANACHOME, im looking into it and its the cheapest

Not if you use JR Pass it’s not coveted

I also suggest Ueno. Especially if youre on a budget. Its right next to Askakusa, which is my personal favorite area in Tokyo. Its very calm. It has Ueno park which is a beautiful area. And also in Ueno park there is the Tokyo National Museum compound, which is an awesome budget thing to do as well. The only thing is that it takes a while to get to popular places like Shinjuku and Shibuya. Also if your into anime and game stuff, its right next to Akihabara.

Yes I stayed at Ikebukuro for my first ever visit in Tokyo. It's a big city as well and very convenient as it seems to be the interchange for many train lines. I just got back from Tokyo a few days ago and I already miss the city 😢

do you recommend anything near Dome City? I hope one day to go to Wrestle Kingdom

Wait Ginza..? The last time I was there everything was so pricey compared to the rest of Tokyo that I had to go in a small hidden street behind the tall buildings to find a small yakitori shop (the best yakitori I had btw)

I've lived in a comparatively small part of Tokyo. When you first said Ginza, I gwaffed a bit. Most tourist say they want to stay in Shinjuku. Shinjuku is so dirty mate, idk what's going on in those hotel areas. It's kinda gross. So yeah. Ginza might be nice if you can afford it. But Ueno works too, for access.

For the budget minded traveler, Ueno would be a good choice since it has some decent business hotels. The National Museum and Ueno Zoo are near Ueno JR Station, as is the famous Ameyoko open air shopping district. Akihabara is just a couple of stops away on the Yamanote loop line, and Asakusa is easily accessible by subway.
