      Can someone recommend a good & comfortable hotel to stay for 3 adults in Tokyo downtown? Budget abt $200-$300 per night. Preferably near main bus station & train station, close to eateries/supermarket & places to shop & explore. Thanks!

        How do we ask locals for directions? Most cannot speak English right?

              Hi Sparks, a mummy on our community travel site wrote about staying in a Citadines apartment (in Shinjuku) and here's her story (where they visited etc from their base - http://kidsonboard.net/blog/travel-mome ... n-in-tokyo. That place might be suitable for you. There's another dad who based his family in Odaiba. Personally, I've stayed at Oakwood midtown Tokyo, near Ronpoggi, it's nice but I am not sure if they do short term rentals. Hope these help!
