FAQs

• Tokyo: This will depend on which city you arrive at.TokyoTokyo is serviced by two major international airports, Narita and Haneda. You#re welcome to take a taxi to the hotel, but these tend to be quite expensive. That#s why, the best way to reach our hotel is by train. You can purchase tickets from the counter at the airport.
