Where do you go when sightseeing in Tokyo?
I think the central areas of Tokyo such as Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ikebukuro, and Ueno can be mentioned.
In this article, we will introduce five hotels we recommend as hotels to stay in Tokyo for sightseeing, based on the perspectives of “good access to the center of Tokyo” and “having a hot spring (large public bath)”,”near train stations”.
Please take a look at them!
