How to Find Cheap Flights to Japan?
Wondering how to secure affordable flights? The following strategies can help you find the cheapest time to fly to Japan.
Book During Off-Peak Seasons
The cheapest time to fly to Japan is January to early February (excluding New Year). Airlines always have lower prices after peak travel periods. Winter offers great flight deals, though some cities like Hokkaido may still busy because of ski tourism. Always check Japan’s Public holidays when planning your trip, as increasing domestic travellers can affect the price of international flights.

Central Tokyo Tokyo|2.87km from city center
Hotel staff are friendly, helpful and attentive. The bell boy who helped me with bringing my luggages to the room was very friendly and helpful, spoke good English too. Though not all staff spoke good English, they tried their best to assist me. Their service standard is consistent throughout.
The room and the toilet was spacious and clean.
There were 4 restuarants that I could go to for breakfast. The Garden Lounge which served buffet breakfast has a wide selection of food and drink. Most importantly the food was yummy!
I enjoyed looking at the beautiful garden with waterfall view as I was seated by the window during breakfast.FromBRL 870

Ginza/Tsukiji Tokyo|0.49km from city center
Location of the hotel is excellent and is within close proximity to major establishments/shopping areas in the Ginza area. There is a convenient store (”Natural Lawson”) on the ground floor of the building.
I booked the Standard Room with Queen Bed as I was worried that the Standard Room with Single Bed would be too cramped. I'm glad I made that decision. At about 20sq.m., the room is spacious and comfortable enough for one person but may be slightly cramped for a couple. Then again, hotel rooms in Japan tend to be small in general. Everything was clean and well maintained, and the amenities were sufficient. The lobby of the hotel is located on the 16/F of the building, and the guestrooms are located from 17/F up, so you get a very nice view of the Ginza area.
I didn't try the breakfast on this trip, but I've heard nice things about that. Will definitely try that next time.

Ginza/Tsukiji Tokyo|0.66km from city center
The hotel's location is excellent, right in the city center and within walking distance of Ginza. Subway access nearby also makes transportation very convenient. The lobby staff were very accommodating, and I'd especially like to commend the following front desk personnel: NAKATA and SEKIMOTO. They were professional, efficient, and thoughtfully assigned a suitable room based on my needs.
The Bell Staff, ABE, was gentle, attentive, and friendly. The housekeeping staff were also very efficient, delivering water promptly, ensuring the room was well-stocked with amenities, and keeping it impeccably clean.
All of the above staff made us feel the brand image that the Imperial Hotel should embody, and we'd like to extend our special praise!
The room was very clean. Although it's an older hotel, there were no issues with outdated facilities or poor maintenance. The entire room felt very comfortable, natural, and clean.
The air conditioning was excellent – very quiet, almost imperceptible, with no direct draft and no noise. The temperature was naturally comfortable. I've stayed in many five-star hotels, and this level of performance is superb, reflecting a discreet, natural, and understated elegance.
The two power outlets by the bedside were convenient and practical; they're two-prong, so my iPhone could be charged without an adapter.
The automatic curtains, minibar, sofa and small table, and writing desk were all well-arranged and easy to use.
Overall, a five-star rating. I booked several nights this time and look forward to enjoying every day. I will definitely choose this hotel again in the future.FromBRL 1,030

Suidobashi/Tokyo Dome Tokyo|3.75km from city center
This hotel is incredibly spacious for Tokyo, with large, bright rooms offering excellent city views. The building itself hosts a variety of dining options, and there's even a convenience store on the second floor. Plus, there are plenty of restaurants right outside the hotel, making dining incredibly convenient. Transportation is a breeze with easy access to trains, subways, and buses. The only minor drawback is that a walk-in shower in the bathroom would have been even better. All in all, it was an extremely satisfying stay with great value for money!FromBRL 392
9/10Great2315 Reviews
Tokyo Tower Area Tokyo|2.41km from city center
The room offered a view of Tokyo Tower, which I was very pleased with! Since it was my birthday, I had mentioned it in advance, and the hotel emailed me about a surprise. Upon checking in, I found they had left a few small cookies, which was a lovely touch.
However, upon entering the room, there was an old, hard-to-describe smell. This smell wasn't present near the bed. (I had read reviews upon checking in and noticed this wasn't an isolated incident.)
Check-in was at 3 PM, and I arrived around 3:10 PM. There was a huge line for check-in, and I didn't get into my room until after 4 PM. This service was very poor; it's the first time I've encountered such a situation, and I hope the hotel improves.
Personally, I felt the overall service attitude of the hotel wasn't particularly enthusiastic, and all the staff seemed to treat guests differently.
The toilet in the bathroom was also old. It's hard to imagine this is a hotel renovated in 2018?FromBRL 1,503

The environment is clean and quiet, and the room is spacious and bright with soft, comfortable bedding. The front desk staff are warm and attentive, and the breakfast is abundant and delicious.

Odaiba Tokyo|5.01km from city center
This hotel offers direct access to the Yurikamome Line's Odaiba Station from its second floor, and is within walking distance of the life-sized Gundam statue and Odaiba Marine Park. A complimentary shuttle bus to Disneyland is provided, and Haneda Airport is just a 20-minute drive away, making transportation highly convenient. All room types feature private balconies, with ocean view rooms directly facing the Rainbow Bridge and Tokyo Bay's night skyline. The room sizes significantly exceed those of similarly priced hotels in central Tokyo. For families with children, amenities for kids are proactively provided upon check-in, ensuring excellent comfort during your stay.
The facilities are well-maintained, and both Chinese and English services are seamless. There's a complimentary gym and multiple restaurants on-site. The drawbacks include the hotel's age and the fact that the pool requires an additional fee. It's also a bit further from the central city shopping districts. Overall, this hotel is ideal for guests who prioritize exploring Odaiba, appreciate scenic views and spacious accommodations. High-floor ocean view rooms are highly recommended.FromBRL 781
8.7/10Very Good4840 Reviews
Shinagawa Tokyo|5.46km from city center
The hotel is conveniently located near the station, with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. However, considering the quality and condition of the room, I felt the price was extremely high and not good value for money.
As soon as I entered the guest room floor, I noticed the typical smell of an older hotel. The room itself was reasonably clean, but most of the facilities and furnishings felt very dated. Although the hotel states that it was renovated in 2019, it honestly did not feel recently renovated at all.
The TV was also quite basic and did not support services such as YouTube, Netflix, or Disney+. The room was extremely small, so I would say it is more suitable for business travelers or guests who enjoy the nostalgic atmosphere of an old Showa-era style hotel.
One thing that concerned me was the bathroom layout. You have to step up to enter the bathroom, and because of the limited space, I tripped twice during my stay and also bumped into the bathroom door several times.
As for the service, there really was not much service to speak of. The front desk staff were also not particularly friendly, which made the overall experience feel less welcoming.
Overall, the location is convenient and the cleanliness is acceptable, but considering the high price, small room, dated facilities, lack of service, and bathroom layout, I would not particularly recommend this hotel for families.FromBRL 404

Tokyo Station/Nihonbashi Tokyo|1.35km from city center
The hotel's location is superb, right next to Otemachi Station and Tokyo Station, connected by an underground passage. The Starbucks and chocolate shop on the first floor of the adjacent OAZO building are both good. It was a slight disappointment that the drug store wasn't open on the weekend, so I couldn't buy anything. There are a variety of restaurants upstairs; I had some delicious grilled eel rice, and the white asparagus, one of the two appetizers I added, was particularly tasty. Back to the hotel: if you plan to eat any meals, be sure to check the opening and last order times on the signs at the entrance. For instance, the Japanese breakfast on the 7th floor has a last order at 9:30 AM, and they won't serve you if you're late. Western breakfast is on the 8th floor, and takeout isn't allowed, though they did let me take two drinks back to my room after some discussion; food takeout isn't permitted for safety reasons. The room facilities are comprehensive and very clean. The slippers are comfortable, and the body lotion is excellent. The showerhead is great, and the bed is very comfortable too. In short, besides being a bit pricey, there are no complaints. The last picture shows the view of Tokyo Station from the elevator leading to the 7th-floor front desk.FromBRL 1,069

Shinjuku Area Tokyo|6.73km from city center
First off, I need to clarify that the photos below are of the hotel's **Spacious Twin Room**! The **Superior Twin Room** listed on Trip.com has those really old bathrooms! 😭
I asked the front desk, and all the photos of newly renovated rooms are either for an upgraded Spacious Twin Room, or for a downgraded 23-sqm room type (and the 23-sqm rooms don't have the same dry/wet separated bathroom as pictured below). Because I'm so particular about clean bathrooms, I had no choice but to pay an extra 500 RMB per night at the front desk to upgrade to the **Spacious Twin Room**... 💔
Perhaps the hotel took pity on my wallet, as they gave me an access pass to the 47th-floor lounge. Figures 3-4 below are photos of the 47th floor. It's quite large, with various seating options like chairs, sofas, tatami mats, and even hammocks for relaxing. There's also a children's play area (with a manga bookshelf) and complimentary Starbucks and soft drinks. Food and alcoholic beverages cost extra.
Also, my **Spacious Twin Room** was probably set up as a triple, as they provided 3 sets of L'Occitane toiletries daily. I unexpectedly achieved 'L'Occitane sample freedom' 😂.
However, I must say that Keio Plaza's transportation and location are excellent: there's an airport shuttle to and from the airport, and it's less than a 5-minute walk straight to the Shinjuku transportation hub/commercial district. It's also right opposite the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, surrounded mainly by office buildings, making the area very nice, quiet, and safe. The hotel's service has a classic touch; in the mornings, you can choose to have an English or Japanese newspaper delivered to your door, and there are attendants in the elevators who greet you and hold the door.
In summary: I would consider staying here again on my next visit, but I'll definitely be more careful about choosing the room type, hahaha! 🤦FromBRL 1,047

Tokyo Station/Nihonbashi Tokyo|1.84km from city center
[HOSHINOYA Tokyo: A Vertical Ryokan Experience]
HOSHINOYA Tokyo offers a truly unique concept. It is a traditional Japanese ryokan built vertically within a modern skyscraper, located in the prestigious Otemachi district. It provides a serene, luxurious escape right in the middle of the bustling city, perfectly blending classic ryokan hospitality with world-class modern design. We enjoyed a wonderful three-day, two-night stay at the property from 29 May to 31 May. We chose not to make any meal reservations, which gave us the flexibility to simply relax and explore the surrounding city.
[Getting There]
We travelled from Fufu Hakone via a day trip to Enoshima and Kamakura. We took a direct train from Kamakura to Tokyo Station, followed by a short walk to the hotel, and arrived at around 8:00 PM. To make the transit completely effortless, our luggage was picked up and delivered directly to the hotel by LuggAgent on the same day.
[Arrival and Check-In]
The hotel is situated in the central business district and distinctly stands out from the surrounding buildings. The discreet entrance completely shields you from the busy streets. Upon entering, staff immediately store your shoes, as the entire tatami-matted building operates on a barefoot or socks-only policy. We were incredibly lucky to catch a traditional jap instrument performance, which is usually reserved for weekends. A designated staff member managed our check-in with welcome snack & tea and escorted us to level 15. A major highlight is the exclusive lounge on each floor, shared by only 6 suites. It functions as a private living room, fully stocked with complimentary seasonal teas, coffees, and traditional snacks.
[The Suite]
We stayed in the Sakura suite. Rather than trying to describe the beautiful layout in words, I will let my photos speak for themselves. The beds are low to the floor with a mid-level hardness that we found quite comfortable, and each bed comes with two soft pillows. There is also a television cleverly hidden behind a mirror, though it is worth noting that it only broadcasts Japanese channels. We kept it switched off to maintain the consistent traditional ryokan feel. The provided yukata is absolutely superb. It comes as a full set complete with an inner layer, an outer layer, socks, and a small handbag. The material is soft, stretchy, and incredibly comfortable for lounging and walking around the property.
[The Top-Floor Onsen]
Having a natural hot spring in central Tokyo is a rare luxury. The onsen is located on the 17th floor and features a stunning design where the roof is open to the sky. As cameras are strictly prohibited, you will have to visualise it or check the hotel website for gallery photos. I understand that the bath is a salty hot spring containing a high concentration of seawater and seaweed minerals trapped deep in the ground. Soaking in this soothing water gently embraces the skin and helps alleviate fatigue in both body and mind. The onsen is open daily from 3:00 PM to 11:30 AM. It was the absolute perfect way to warm up and recharge before we headed out for a busy day.
[Areas for Improvement]
Toothbrush Set: The provided toothbrush is far too small and takes ages to use. I strongly recommend bringing your own.FromBRL 5,804

Ginza/Tsukiji Tokyo|0.36km from city center
Pros:
the duty manager Mai who is fluent in English and demonstrated outstanding attentiveness and a genuine dedication to hospitality. She took the time to truly understand my specific needs and thoughtfully arranged the perfect room for me.
To be quite honest, this level of personalized care and attention to detail is something rarely encountered in the hospitality industry nowadays. I was both deeply impressed and delightfully surprised by this experience.
Cons:
regarding the housekeeping service during my stay, While I appreciate that the bedsheets were changed diligently, the overall cleanliness and attention to detail have been highly disappointing.
Instead of clearing the room, the housekeeper consistently left trash behind after cleaning. Day1 The housekeeper actually stuffed a piece of paper waste into the room card slot. Day 2 The trash remained unclean.
Day 3 The housekeeper even left their own dirty cleaning towel right next to the bathroom sink. (see the picture)
As a guest, I expected a high standard of hygiene and professionalism, but these incidents have made my stay quite uncomfortable.FromBRL 562

Roppongi Tokyo|3.16km from city center
Review: Remm Roppongi (レム六本木)
Our stay at Remm Roppongi was very enjoyable and a great base for exploring Tokyo. The hotel’s location is absolutely one of its biggest strengths — it’s just steps from Roppongi Station, surrounded by restaurants, shops, and nightlife, and in a vibrant part of the city that’s easy to explore on foot or by subway.
The rooms are clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed, with free Wi-Fi and comfort in mind. Although the rooms are on the smaller side, as is common in Tokyo, clever layout and features like a massage chair made the space very comfortable for relaxing after long days of sightseeing.
One of the memorable parts of our stay was the night view — higher-floor rooms offer beautiful city and Tokyo Tower views, which was a highlight of the experience.
The staff were friendly and professional, always ready to help with requests, and check-in/out was smooth. Guest reviews consistently praise how attentive and polite the team is.
Breakfast (optional buffet) has a nice variety and was delicious — a great way to start the day before heading out.
On the flip side, there’s no bathtub in most rooms, so if you really want a bath it might not be ideal, and the hotel doesn’t have extensive facilities like a spa or gym — but for a city stay where the focus is exploring Tokyo, it’s perfect.
Overall, Remm Roppongi offers excellent comfort, great convenience, and a high-quality experience for a business or leisure trip in Tokyo, especially if you value location and a modern, comfortable room to return to each evening.FromBRL 461
9.1/10Great1210 Reviews
Tokyo Station/Nihonbashi Tokyo|1.13km from city center
The hotel boasts an excellent location near Tokyo Station, specifically the Yaesu exit. You can navigate through the underground mall, take an elevator to ground level, and once outside, look for a cafe called Tsubakiya Coffee. The hotel is located on a small street right next to this cafe.
The room itself is quite small; there's barely enough space to open two suitcases. However, it's clean and tidy, equipped with a bathtub, shower, refrigerator, and an electric kettle. Our room had a window, but there was no view – just a very close-up wall of the adjacent building. The air conditioning unit seemed a bit old, as even on the lowest setting, it made a noticeable sound.
The staff were very friendly. Toiletries like facial cleanser and lotion are available for guests to pick up at the front desk. During non-breakfast hours, guests can also enjoy complimentary coffee and tea.
Additionally, hotels in Tokyo charge a consumption tax per person, with the exact amount calculated based on the nightly room rate. Ctrip does mention this, and the front desk will collect it. For our stay of 4 people across 2 rooms for 1 night, we paid 400 JPY.FromBRL 516

Ginza/Tsukiji Tokyo|0.89km from city center
A really great hotel with brand new facilities. The entrance is surrounded by lush greenery, and it's super close to Tsukiji Station's Exit 3b. They even have triple rooms, which are quite rare. The air conditioning in the room is very quiet, but everything is controlled by a screen. This screen is a bit too bright at night, which took some getting used to. There's a pocket park right across the street, and it's only about a 10-minute walk to Tsukiji Market for seafood, which is super convenient.FromBRL 665

Tokyo Station/Nihonbashi Tokyo|1.42km from city center
Relabo Hotel boasts an excellent location right next to the JR station. From the station's third floor, there's a direct walkway leading to an elevator that takes you straight to the hotel's 4th-floor front desk. It's incredibly convenient. Nearby, you'll find the Apple Factory and the Nebuta Museum, and downstairs there's a department store for shopping and dining. A highlight of the hotel is its hot springs, and they also offer some yoga activities, though we didn't participate as we don't speak Japanese. Guests can enjoy the hot springs for free, and female guests are personally escorted into the bathing area by staff, which feels very safe. After a soak, you can grab an ice cream or head to the observation deck to enjoy the view with some crackers and apple juice – a truly leisurely holiday experience. The room was comfortable and quiet with ample space for luggage, offering city views and a glimpse of the ocean bridge. The scenery at sunset was particularly beautiful. The staff were all very pleasant, especially the restaurant staff during breakfast, who were absolutely outstanding!FromBRL 809

I always stay here when I'm in Tokyo, and I booked it this time because the price was right. It must have been a special offer for a lower-floor room, perhaps the third floor. It was so humid that on the first night, I broke out in several large itchy bumps, and unfortunately, I had to stay for four nights. Breakfast was as usual – nothing to complain about, but nothing spectacular either.FromBRL 976

Also a great location, in Shibuya, but not directly in the busy section. Would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to friends and family or stay here again.
