Hey /trv/,

My wife and I are planning a two week trip to Tokyo, Japan soon. She's a true weaboo, right down to speaking, reading, and writing Japanese. I think it'd be an interesting trip. I've narrowed it down to two hotels. The Hotel Monterey Sanno in the Omori Residential Area, and the Radisson Hotel Narita. I was wondering if anyone has travel to this area before, could offer adive or suggestions. Thanks!

Knowing Japanese != weeaboo

Now if she is some old bitch who still watches sailor moon, she is a weeaboo

There really isn't much to do in Narita besides arrive in the country via that international airport.

Why those areas? How long are you staying for?

If you want some other choices, I highly recommend the apartment service from liveinasia.com. I stayed at one of their places in Nishi-Ogikubo, it was a really good way to experience the city and your wife would probably love living like a local. I think it's really good value compared to hotels, the service was awesome too, one of their guys came and met me at the train station and helped me carry my stuff back whilst telling me what shops were good. Don't be afraid to ask for a better rate if their booking calendar looks empty too.

every hotel/holiday rental has overheads to cover... if they're not booked up then they're making a loss, so you'll be doing them a favour if you take it for breakeven or more.

Be polite though, just asked what the best rate they can offer you is. If they say the standard rate, fair enough! But if they offer you a deal, everyone wins!

Narita? That's like an hour train journey from the centre of Tokyo. Forget that.

The only airport closer than that to Tokyo is Haneda International Airport which despite the name has very few international routes. The vast majority of westerners arrive in Japan via Narita.

True. But why would you want to *stay* there? I mean, unless you're getting in at a time when you won't be able to catch a train into the city until the next day.

Exactly! It would be like staying near Heathrow Airport or JFK and having to take a long (and not cheap) train journey every time you wanted to go anywhere.

Only stay in Narita if you're planning to spend your holiday at the airport watching planes or stealing people's luggage.

For the money and time you'll spend on the Narita Express (or something cheaper, but much slower), it would be worth paying a bit more for somewhere more central.

there's a JR Highway Bus that goes to Tokyo station from Radisson every 40 minutes or so, the trip only takes 1 hour on the Highway and costs 1,400 yen one way, 1200 yen per ticket if you buy 6.

That's 2 hours of time every day wasted sitting on the bus. How the hell do you consider that good?

I'm confused if there is serious trolling going on, or someone just really loves staying at airports.
