I’ve been getting tons of questions from viewers asking where they should stay when visiting Tokyo.
But here’s the thing—Tokyo is a massive city with over 14 million people, so where you stay really depends on what you’re looking for.
Do you want convenience, budget-friendly spots, or perhaps a lively nightlife?
Having lived here for over 10 years and guided countless foreign tourists, I’ve come to know each area’s unique vibe and can help you choose the best place to stay based on your preferences.
In this video, I’m going to break down the seven best areas to stay in Tokyo, what makes each one special, who I recommend them to, and how convenient it is to get to them.
I’ll also share specific hotel recommendations and tips on how to book. Plus, I’ll even tell you which areas you might want to avoid.
By watching this video, you will be able to travel in Japan more comfortably, efficiently and enjoyably, so please be sure to watch until the end.
