🗼 Where to Stay in Tokyo (First-Time Visitors)

1. Shinjuku – Best All-Around 🎯 ✅ Great mix of shopping, nightlife, restaurants & parks 🚇 Major train hub (JR & metro), easy to explore Tokyo 🌃 Stay near Shinjuku Station for convenience 🍣 Local tip: Try Omoide Yokocho (tiny alleyway bars & food) 2. Shibuya – Trendy & Youthful 🎮 🌀 Famous Shibuya Crossing & Hachiko statue 🛍️ Shopping, cafes, nightlife, and great energy 🎧 Great for younger travelers or night owls 3. Asakusa – Cultural & Traditional 🏮 🏯 Home to Senso-ji Temple, Tokyo’s oldest 🛌 More relaxed, with ryokans (traditional inns) 🚲 Perfect for slow mornings & riverside walks 🍡 Great street food on Nakamise-dori 4. Tokyo Station / Marunouchi – Quiet & Central 🏙️ 🏛️ Near Imperial Palace & Ginza luxury shopping 🚅 Perfect base for day trips (easy access to Shinkansen) 🏨 Hotels tend to be more upscale/business-oriented 5. Ueno – Museums, Parks & Pandas 🐼 🎨 Ueno Park, Zoo, National Museum = great for families 🍱 Cheaper eats & more local vibes 🚇 Direct access from Narita Airport 🛎️ First-Time Tip: Stay near a JR Yamanote Line station 🚃 – it circles central Tokyo and makes everything easier to reach!
