If u can come for the meetup event, it would be good.

I ever helped a couple save $600 off their travel by doing some slight adjustments to their schedule.

thks for putting the event. but a bit difficult as am in the midst of exams.
and, it's mother's day!

any family friendly recc on where to stay in tokyo city?
my kids are 9 n 11 but they look like twins n small sized.
hotel breakfast not a must but wifi will be much appreciated.

take train thought is convenient enough right?

You can consider staying in Mercure Ginza Tokyo. We family of 4 stayed there in last Nov., their twin beds room is not too small.

I stayed in kadoya hotel 2 years ago. They have triple room, so my hubby & son shared 1 bed. Location is great with lawson convenient store just besides it & eateries & shops nearby. Airport limousine bus stop located 5 min walk away.


I think sunroute shinjuku also got triple room but must book directly with hotel website.

U are going to Osaka just for the USJ? A bit wasted. Why not spend some time at Kobe and Himeji?
