Hotels in Tokyo - Take a Visit and know which Hotel is best for you

Hotels in Tokyo:It's not uncommon to hear that the Japanese make foreign visitors feel very welcome. This is not only witnessed in the hospitality of citizens but the business community as well. Case in point - The Japan Tourist Hotel Association, a non-profit organization. The association has many member hotels across Japan dedicated to providing foreign guests with a clean, friendly place to stay. All members subscribe to a set of standards provided to ensure reliable and qualified services for guests.

There are two basic types of lodging available:

* Ryokans - Japanese style hotels, sometimes called traditional inns. Ryokans vary from small, family-run inns to large Japanese style hotels.

* Western Style Hotels - Perhaps a more familiar environment. These hotels range from budget to luxury with the majority falling into the budget-business class.

We recommend looking for traditional Ryokan style inns. A hotel may be a nice place to sleep but a Ryokan can be a lesson in Japanese culture and a lot of fun. Turn your lodging into an experience you'll tell friends about when you return home.

There are more than member 70 hotels in Tokyo alone. A brochure from the association provides rates and many details on each. Much of this information can also be found on their website in English. Accommodations in the Tokyo area are listed by location and by price to help you find the right place quickly.

Within Tokyo separate listings are provided for the following locations: Nihonbashi, Yaesu, Kanda, Ochanomizu, Kamata, Haneda, Shiba, Shinagawa, Yotsuya, Shinanomachi, Hongo, Bunkyo, Shinjuku, Ogikubo, Ryogoku, Ueno, Asakusa, Sugamo, Otsuka, Tama, Tachikawa, Sagami-ko, Ohshima, and Hachijojima.
