Searching for Hotel (1)

Hubby and I have been reading on travelling blogs, online websites and asking around from people who had been to Japan for more information. Hubby would prefer a local hotel with traditional Japanese-style tatami mat instead of the usual western-style guestrooms. However, we will check in a hotel which can view Tokyo night view on the first day when we reach Tokyo.

3rd March 2010: After searching around, hubby suggested to me that we can stay in Hotel Edoya. We read the online reviews on this hotel and find that it is not bad. The hotel fits into our budget and requirements. We finally decided to book at Hotel Edoya for 4 nights. This hotel is near Ueno area. Of course, every hotel has their good and bad comments, and it is impossible for us to take into account on so many remarks. So, after got the quotation from the hotel and discussed it with hubby, we have decided to make the reservations at this hotel. The Japanese-style room which we have booked has tatami mat floors, futon beds and traditional Japanese bathrooms.


Expenses 2:
Type of room = Japanese Style Standard Double Room (1 large futon bed shared by 2 people)
Number of nights =4
Total room charge = ¥ 41,340 Yen / room including taxes and breakfast
( check-in =October 8 )
( check-out =October 12 )

Estimated amount is in RM 1,569.55.

For now, we only left with one night hotel room pending for reservations. We want to book one room which is able to experience Tokyo night view. Need to search again for this.

While we were doing our research on the Japan trip, so coincidently to find out that the dates we have chosen to travel to Japan, fall on one of the Japan public holidays. So I think we need to be quick in deciding on the hotel to prevent from booking expensive hotel rates.
