Located in the Shiodome area of the city, the Park Hotel is close to many of Tokyo's main attractions, including Ginza and the tranquil Hamarikyu Gardens. Starting on the 25th floor, rooms are small but tastefully decorated and well equipped; some with excellent views of Tokyo Tower. They are all en suite, although bathrooms are on the small side. The hotel also boasts three restaurants, shops, a fitness centre and a cafe, as well as a pillow fitting service to ensure an excellent night's sleep.

Day 4

Magome-chaya, Magome

Located in the middle of the historical postal town, Magome-juku, Magome Chaya is a small, traditional Japanese guesthouse with just 12 tatami rooms. Whilst the rooms are simple with a shared bathroom, the fantastic location on the main pedestrian street in Magome offers a rare chance to experience traditional, rural Japan, free from modern large scale developments.

Day 5

Fujioto Ryokan

Fujioto is a traditional inn in the heart of Tsumago that has been owned by the Fujihara family for many generations. Although the rooms are simple, and toilet and bath facilities communal, the bright spaces, central garden and perfect location in the village more than make up for this.
