When it comes to Tokyo, Tokyo Station is definitely number one for its vibrant urban atmosphere! This itinerary focuses on the Tokyo Station area, exploring all five senses: immerse yourself in Tokyo Station's stunning night views and century-old architecture, receive a badge only railroad enthusiasts will appreciate, and stay at a prestigious hotel directly above the station, offering superb convenience for transportation, dining, and shopping. Staying at Tokyo Station not only allows you to slow down and experience Tokyo's intricacies, but also allows you to instantly connect and explore Japan. For city enthusiasts, these tips for accommodation, transportation, and fun activities close to the station are a real plus! |Recommended Attractions & Accommodations| 1. Tokyo Station Nighttime Stroll Walking past Tokyo Station's Marunouchi North Exit, the entire station glows at dusk, resembling a dreamy European palace under the lights. The architecture itself is incredibly storytelling, and every angle is perfect for photos, especially at night when the atmosphere truly elevates! Tip: For a special treat for railway fans, don't forget to redeem your limited-time lapel pin at the JR East Travel Service Center (located just inside the station, near the Marunouchi North Exit). The atmosphere is fantastic. 2. The Tokyo Station Hotel Address: 1-9-1 Marunouchi, Chiyoda-ku Staying at this century-old hotel truly feels like being part of a Tokyo story. Not only is it connected to Tokyo Station, offering excellent transportation (and truly exceptional service), but it's also within walking distance of the Imperial Palace and Ginza. Breakfast is highly recommended: The Japanese buffet offers dishes like seafood rice bowls and eel rice, and it's truly exquisite. The corridors are also covered in photos documenting the history of Tokyo Station, a must-see for those with a knack for art. The rooms are well-insulated, and some offer views of the Imperial Palace, allowing you to quietly enjoy the city's nightscape. 3. Super Select Tokyo Station Yaesu Chuo-guchi Address: 2 Chome-2-7 Yaesu This hotel is located across from Tokyo Station, or within a 5-minute walk. This makes it perfect for first-time visitors to Tokyo or those catching the Shinkansen early the next morning, without having to lug your luggage around. It offers comprehensive amenities, including a large bath, a wide selection of pillows, free washing machines, and self-service skincare products. Check-in and check-out are smooth, and the service is friendly. In the evening, there are free drinks and snacks (a relaxing time for office workers!). While the rooms are relatively small, they're clean enough. |Practical Accommodation & Travel Tips| - The hotel is directly connected to Tokyo Station, so you don't have to worry about lugging large luggage or arriving late at night. The subway and JR lines are just downstairs, making it easy to get to everything. - After shopping for souvenirs/gifts, be sure to stop by the JR East Travel Service Center to pick up a limited-edition badge – a truly special travel ritual. - Tokyo Station's nightscape is best photographed in the evening, when the lights and crowds are just right, creating the perfect atmosphere. - Both hotels are convenient for exploring nearby shopping, dining, and catching a train anytime. |Recommended Dining| In the morning, enjoy a high-quality Japanese breakfast at the Tokyo Station Hotel. Then, stroll to the Yaesu underground shopping mall or the station's food court, where you can choose from a wide variety of ramen, bento, and desserts. |Transportation Guide| Tokyo Station is a direct one-stop destination for both Narita and Haneda Airports. Tokyo Station is surrounded by a network of subway and JR lines, making it easy to get lost (and even if you do get lost, you'll quickly find your way back to the center of the station). It's recommended to download a simple station map beforehand to easily identify entrances, exits, and transfers. #TokyoNightView #TokyoStationHotel #RailwayFansCheckIn #TokyoAccommodation #CityTravelGuide
