What accommodation would you recommend for Australians visiting Tokyo for the first time?

Question

This year, an Australian married couple in their mid-20s are planning to come to Tokyo. Can you recommend a place to stay? It will be their first time in Japan and they cannot speak Japanese, so it would be best to have somewhere that has English support. They would prefer a hotel in an easily accessible location such as Shinjuku or Shibuya, but if there are any recommendations for guesthouses that are popular with foreigners, even if they are outside of their preferred area, please let me know.

Located a 5-minute walk from the west exit of Shinjuku Station, it has good access to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building on the Oedo Line and is a great base for sightseeing. Amenities are provided, and there is a lounge with a Starbucks espresso machine and a convenience store, so it is comfortable to stay.

We recommend Sakura Hotel, which has many foreign guests. It is a long-established budget hotel for foreigners, and is most famous in Ikebukuro, which is easily accessible. The chain also has branches in Nippori and Asakusa, so you can stay there with peace of mind. There are various types of rooms available, from dormitories to single rooms, group rooms with bunk beds, family rooms, and Japanese-style rooms. You can choose according to your budget and preferences. As it is a hotel for foreigners, English-speaking staff are on hand 24 hours a day, so you don't have to worry about communication.

This downtown area is very popular among overseas tourists in Tokyo. We recommend the Asakusa View Hotel as a base for your stay. In addition to the excellent hospitality of a city hotel, you can experience a truly Japanese atmosphere with a festival mikoshi (portable shrine) on display in the lobby.

It is a global hotel chain located in Shinjuku, so foreigners can stay there with peace of mind. Since it is Shinjuku, there are many restaurants, so you will not have any trouble finding food. Of course, you can also go sightseeing in Shinjuku. I think the hotel service is also fine.

If you are a foreigner going to Tokyo, I recommend Hotel Chinzanso Tokyo. It is a prestigious Japanese-style Ryokan (Japanese inn) where you can relax in a calm environment with a large garden. Basic English support is available at the reception, so you can rest assured. The rooms are spacious and comfortable.

Aim · Answer

Shibuya is a classic tourist destination for foreigners. This hotel is directly connected to the relatively quiet Shinminamiguchi exit of Shibuya. It is a safe area and a convenient base for lodging. Shibuya Stream and Hikarie are within walking distance. The hotel offers a full range of amenities that can be taken out from reception desk. In addition, Simmons beds and Tempur pillows are also available. As it is often used by foreigners, the staff are accustomed to staying here and are polite and welcoming, making it a recommended hotel.
