The Tokyo subway system is a vast network of 13 lines, effortlessly connecting you to every corner of the city. This comprehensive system is made up of the Toei Subway (4 lines) and the Tokyo Metro (9 lines), making it easier than ever to explore Tokyo.
Did you know that Tokyo's two metro networks are run by different operators? While they work seamlessly together, the Tokyo Metro and the Toei Subway are managed by separate entities: Tokyo Metro Co., Ltd., and the Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Transportation, respectively.
The two work hand-in-hand, creating a seamless experience for travelers by integrating services across key areas, even while maintaining their own unique operations.

Standard Tokyo Subway Tickets
Ticket Vending Machines (Source: tokyocheapo.com)
You can easily pick up regular subway tickets from the multilingual machines found at any subway station, though keep in mind this can sometimes be a bit of a hassle and end up costing more. Fares are calculated based on the distance you travel rather than the specific route or station. Just a heads-up: since Tokyo Metro and Toei Subway are operated by different companies, you'll need to purchase separate tickets for each.
Tokyo Metro fares range from 180 to 330 yen (about $1.58 to $2.90 AUD), while Toei Subway tickets are just a bit more, ranging from 180 to 430 yen (about $1.58 to $3.78 AUD).
Ready to hop on the Metro? Here’s how you can easily purchase your ticket at the station:
- Locate a Ticket Machine: Keep an eye out for a ticket vending machine inside the station. They’re designed to be super easy to use and are usually clearly signposted to help you on your way.
- Buy Your Ticket: Simply use the ticket machine to purchase your ticket. Helpful instructions are available, and you can easily switch the language in the upper right corner of the screen to whatever suits you best.
- Ready to ride? Head over to the automatic gate with your ticket in hand. Simply insert your ticket into the yellow slot, grab it as it pops out, and breeze through the gate to enter the subway system. Be sure to hold onto your ticket—you’ll need it again to exit at your destination station!

You need to go up from the 3rd floor to the 52nd floor exhibition hall. The exhibits are detailed and worth seeing.

This exhibition is very special and well worth seeing. Entry is through the Qr cadet, which is very convenient.
4/5
The raw, visceral quality of the artwork, which you can see up close, was fantastic! It was crowded even on a weekday, so it might be difficult to see at certain times.
5/5
Every trip adds a unique touch to life. We repeat the same routine day after day, and over time, life becomes like a faded painting. A trip is like repainting that painting. You'll remember the sound of the mountain wind whistling through the trees, the coolness of the stream splashing on your feet, and the aroma of cooking wafting from the night market. These small fragments, pieced together, are the most vibrant parts of life. Even after a long time, recalling these moments will still bring a smile to your face, making you realize how interesting life truly is.
5/5
The viewpoint at the summit was definitely worth it. The mountain road was well-maintained, making the drive up easy. The platform was spacious, so there was no need to squeeze for a spot to take photos. Standing there, you could see the entire mountain scenery, with layers upon layers of views, clouds drifting around the mountain peaks, and a cool breeze blowing. Even if you were tired from the climb, standing there for a while made you feel refreshed. The sunset was especially beautiful, making it well worth the special trip.

As someone who regularly writes accommodation reviews, I've seen too many "miracle hotels" hyped up by marketing, but this one truly impressed me with its genuinely exceptional experience. Staying here is more than just providing a bed to sleep in; it's about comprehensive and meticulous care for both body and mind. From the softness of the linens to the quietness of the ventilation system, and the traceability of ingredients for every meal, every detail is meticulously crafted, without a trace of perfunctory work. After a full day of experience, lying in bed reflecting on all the details, I couldn't find a single fault. It doesn't rely on hype or marketing to grab attention; it stands firm on its solid strength, making it an absolute top choice for accommodation. It fully showcases true excellence and extraordinary style to every guest.
5/5
This time, my friend and I traveled together and chose this small hotel hidden in the old town's vibrant atmosphere. After checking in, we both exclaimed that we made the right choice. Outside, there's a bustling market and old alleys, full of life and energy, but stepping into the hotel, a sense of tranquility instantly sets in, and we even unconsciously lowered our voices. The hotel isn't large, but it blends the traditional elegance of southern Fujian into every detail: a few local antiques are displayed on an old stone table in the courtyard, the walls are decorated with traditional red bricks, and even the curtains are made of coarse indigo-dyed cloth that sways gently in the breeze. Our double room wasn't large, but it didn't feel cramped at all: there was plenty of space between the two beds, and a small shared tea table was set up by the window, where we could brew tea and chat while looking at the bamboo shadows outside. Even the wardrobe handles were made of old copper, with a warm luster worn by time. The most delightful surprise was the hotel's communal courtyard. At night, the owner would light a few small lanterns, and we and other guests would sit around them, drinking tea and listening to the faint sounds of people from the distant city, all while surrounded by tranquility. It turns out that the best poetic dwelling is never about being isolated from the hustle and bustle, but about guarding such a small world amidst the noise, where elegance is hidden within a small space, making even the time spent traveling together exceptionally touching.
5/5
Feeling stifled by the daily grind of 9-to-5, I specifically chose this hotel tucked away in an old town alley. The moment I turned into the alley, I felt the breeze was freer than the air outside my office building. The hotel entrance wasn't a cold glass door, but two old wooden doors. When I opened them, the wind chimes tinkled, and the fragrance of bougainvillea from the courtyard rushed in, instantly washing away the exhaust fumes of my commute. Our room had a small open-air balcony. In the afternoon, I'd pull up a small stool, let the wind tousle my hair, and hold the complimentary agar jelly from the hotel, watching the elderly stroll leisurely in the alley and the children chase cats. The room windows didn't have security bars; they could be fully opened, so I didn't need to close them at night. The cool night air seeped into my bed, making even my dreams feel light and carefree. I used to think that only going to faraway places counted as traveling, but this time I discovered that finding the right hotel, without having to travel far, can completely transform the daily stuffiness into the fragrant breeze of a journey.
5/5
Stepping outside, I discovered the world was far wider than I'd imagined while trapped in my current position. I'd thought that wall marked the boundary of my vision, but once I crossed the threshold, even the horizon became blurred. The wind rushed in from all directions, no longer just entering through that single window. It carried different humidity levels and temperatures—some tinged with the saltiness of the sea, some with the stench of earth, some with the warmth of distant cooking smoke. These scents intertwined, creating a complex atmosphere called "freedom." It finally allowed my spine, stiffened by the constraints of the cubicle, to find a comfortable angle to stretch. I looked at the roadside... Wild grasses grow in all sorts of unbelievable ways. They don't follow the patterns set by the gardener, but twist and turn freely with the wind and sunlight. This unruly and vigorous vitality is more awe-inspiring than any carefully pruned potted plant. I realized that what I thought was "correct" in the past was just a self-imposed limitation within a narrow framework. The breadth of the world lies not only in its geographical vastness, but also in its capacity to accommodate countless undefined possibilities. In this breadth, my insignificant worries were instantly diluted into a speck of dust in the air, drifting away with the wind, leaving only a heart that has become humble and open.
5/5
Refusing a superficial visit, I delved deeply into this land of Qilu, unlocking landscapes unseen by others. Leaving behind the mundane routines, I truly understood the meaning of freedom. This solitary journey, without companions, felt like a profound dialogue with my soul. No one urged me to get up, no one complained about my slow pace. I could bask in the morning sunlight for an entire hour, or change direction at the slightest breeze. This undefined ease taught me that travel is never about proving anything, but about experiencing something. I learned to buy a cup of hot tea at an unfamiliar street corner, watching passersby hurry by, listening to the city's whispers. In that moment, I was both an audience member and a protagonist. Unfiltered scenery is more authentic, unedited smiles are more radiant. The most luxurious travel is allowing yourself to slow down, to do nothing, to simply exist. I no longer rushed to the next destination, because every step was scenery, every second an answer. Solitude allowed me to hear the voice within, and those desires submerged by daily life surfaced one by one in the wind. I'm no longer afraid of loneliness, because loneliness is the starting point for a dialogue with myself. Shandong is vast, but my heart is even more expansive. I don't need anyone to light my journey; I am the light myself. This endless wandering has allowed me to rediscover my long-lost self—the self that doesn't pander, doesn't compromise, and sets off only for what moves me. I've realized that freedom isn't about possessing the whole world, but about the whole world being willing to quiet down and wait for you to slowly pass through.

Rafting in the summer is such a refreshing way to beat the heat! The riverbanks are lined with tall trees whose canopies shade the entire waterway, preventing you from getting unbearably hot. The drops vary in size; on calmer sections, you can stop to chat, enjoy the scenery, and splash each other with water. On more thrilling sections, the splashing water is incredibly refreshing and cool. Lifeguards are on duty at every bend, ensuring safety. After your rafting trip, you can enjoy a bowl of freshly brewed hot ginger tea at the entrance, which completely cools you down and makes you feel refreshed – so much more enjoyable than sitting in air-conditioned comfort in the city!
5/5
Shinjuku is Tokyo's most iconic and bustling commercial district and transportation hub, ranking alongside Shibuya and Ikebukuro as one of Tokyo's "Three Sub-Centers."
Centered around Shinjuku Station, the world's busiest station, it's home to government offices, skyscrapers, department stores, and Japan's largest red-light district.
🏙️ Main areas: West Exit (Skyscraper District): Home to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, offering free observation decks with panoramic views of Tokyo.
East Exit (Bustling Commercial District): Lined with department stores, including the famous 3D giant calico cat statue, Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden (Imperial Garden), and vibrant shopping streets.
Kabukicho: Located north of the East Exit, it's a renowned nightlife district in Asia, with the Tokyu Kabukicho Tower being a recent hotspot.
South Exit: Connects Shinjuku Takashimaya and the Shinjuku Tourist Information Center, and is also a stop on the N'EX Narita Limited Express, which provides direct access to Narita Airport.
4/5
Shinjuku Ward is often thought of as just an office district or a downtown area, but if you actually walk around, you'll be surprised by its charm! First of all, it's an irresistible area for food lovers. From long-established Japanese restaurants to popular sweet cafes and international restaurants where you can enjoy cuisine from all over the world, there are so many famous restaurants to choose from. The areas around Shinjuku 3-chome and Golden Gai are especially recommended for people who love to go out and eat! And it may be surprising, but there are many places where you can feel nature, such as Shinjuku Gyoen and Toyama Park. It's a mysterious and luxurious feeling to be able to enjoy the scenery of the four seasons right next to the skyscrapers. Even though you're right in the middle of the city, there are moments when you suddenly feel relaxed. I think the greatest charm of Shinjuku Ward is the exquisite fusion of this "delicious food", "nature", and "urban convenience"!
5/5
Shinjuku, Tokyo: A Must-See! A Perfect Blend of Bustling Culture
Shinjuku is the pinnacle of any Tokyo trip! During the day, you can browse department stores like Isetan and Lumine, as well as drugstores and trendy brands. At night, it transforms into a city that never sleeps, with the izakayas of Golden Gai and the neon lights of Kabukicho creating a vibrant atmosphere. We recommend visiting the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building's observation deck for free panoramic views of the city, and on clear days, you can even see Mount Fuji in the distance. The Japanese gardens of Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden are beautiful year-round, especially during cherry blossom season, when the scenery is truly breathtaking! Transportation is incredibly convenient, with direct access to the JR Yamanote Line, making everything within easy reach. From ramen to wagyu beef, the food options are endless! The only downside is the crowds on weekends, so avoid peak hours! 🌟
5/5
Shinjuku, one of Tokyo's busiest commercial districts, boasts a unique charm and diverse culture. It's conveniently located as a major transportation hub, allowing visitors to easily explore the city. Shinjuku offers a wide variety of shopping options, from high-end brands to affordable goods. Additionally, the diverse restaurant and nightlife scene is a delight to explore. However, Shinjuku can be crowded, especially during rush hour, which can be stressful. Overall, Shinjuku is a vibrant area perfect for travelers who enjoy bustling city life.

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!

Ginza/Tsukiji Tokyo|0.49km from downtown
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.

We enjoy staying in the Imperial Hotel for number of reasons. Convenient location in Ginza, easy to get taxi from the hotel. The hotel staffs are helpful and efficient. The check-in process is smooth and the luggages delivered to our room very quickly. The room is spacious as we are staying in Junior Suite. I love their shower with strong water pressure. Regarding buffet breakfast, they have a great choice of food. Two of the mornings we need to queue to get table for buffet breakfast, but the 3rd morning there was no waiting at all, so it depends which days you visit Japan to avoid the crowd.

When I booked online for the room, I stated very clearly no corner room, but when I discovered my room is nearly at the end, was a bit not happy. The location is 7 mins walk to suidoboshi station. But it's not very near to places like shibuya or Tokyo, a bit disappointed the single room is a bit small, but the milk lotion, liquid cleanser, face wash packet they provided is gd. A bit surprised they don't provide spoon but stirrer. The room is clean, and there is lawson at 2nd floor and laundry service at 7th level. I have taken video of the room but can't attach here, wasted. Near the suidoboshi station are some eateries. They provide one water bottle daily and clean the room daily which is good.

Tokyo Tower Area Tokyo|2.41km from downtown
Our family trip to Tokyo was made much easier by this hotel—it was an excellent choice for us. They offer adjoining rooms and sofa beds, which gave us plenty of space and flexibility. The location is another big plus: set within a family-friendly park, it’s just a short walk to Tokyo Tower, great restaurants, and nearby subway stations.
One thing to keep in mind: the elevators are split—floors 1–18 and 19–32 are served separately, and access to floors 18–32 requires a key card. So if you’re booking multiple room types, just double-check which floors they’re on to avoid any confusion.FromPLN 575

Akasaka Tokyo|2.21km from downtown
Room and bed were very comfortable, immaculately clean and modern. 2 mins walk from train station, if you need lift access to train then a 6 mins walk, we had a stroller.
Breakfast was a bit of a zoo, we went during Christmas, very busy! But tables were spacious so even though there were so many people you don’t feel cramped. Good variety of food selection. We had dinner at the Japanese teppanyaki restaurant. Delicious, especially the tuna salad.
I found the lobby staff a little lack of personality, at check in, no mentioning of where breakfast will be, what time check out is. Just checked you in and that’s it, no personal notes in the room. When I expressed I’ve lost my phone at the shop in Tokyo, no sign of empathy (it was a western male staff) no gesture of helpfulness, very cold and robotic. This goes for concierge also, he is an older western gentleman, he needs to use Google translate also which is frustrating cause I could do exactly the same research with Google translate.
Overall, hardware is solid, need to fine tune the staff, sprinkle a little bit of personality in them.FromPLN 1,007

Odaiba Tokyo|5.01km from downtown
Overall, I'd give it 4 stars, mainly for the location and the night view, though the hotel's facilities are a bit dated.
🚃 Transportation (very convenient)
Take the Yurikamome Line to Daiba Station, and it's a 3-5 minute walk to the hotel. You even get sea views along the way. Downstairs, there's an Airport Limousine bus that goes directly to Haneda and Narita airports, which is super convenient when you're traveling with luggage.
📍 Location & Surroundings
This deserves high praise – it's right in the heart of Odaiba. You can walk to Fuji TV, Joypolis (Sega Amusements), and the Gundam statue at DiverCity. Aqua City is right downstairs, so dining and shopping are a breeze. It’s perfect for families with kids or young travelers.
🌉 Night View (highly recommended)
I booked a room on the Rainbow Bridge side, and the night view of Rainbow Bridge and Tokyo Bay was truly amazing. Just sitting by the window and zoning out made it worth every penny.
🍳 Breakfast (average)
The buffet offers a mix of Japanese and Western options, but nothing particularly memorable. The taste was just okay, and I felt it wasn't great value for money.
🏨 Facilities & Room (gripes)
The decor is a bit old-fashioned. My biggest complaint is the hairdryer in the room – it's so old and weak; drying long hair was a real struggle. I hope the hotel replaces it soon. Other facilities were acceptable.FromPLN 800

This gave me a very good rest during my short stay. The staff are generally friendly. The train station is just across the hotel. This made travelling very convenient. There are several shops and restaurants in the hotel and prices are affordable. There is also a 7-Eleven on the second floor.FromPLN 262

Wonderful hotel that goes above and beyond for families traveling with children. From the child amenity kits and pajamas for our toddler to the crib and diaper pail for our infant we felt that every need was met which made for a really comfortable trip. The 7eleven in the hotel was the icing on the cake! We also were able to utilize the Poppins onsite daycare although this is run independently and you should book well in advance of your trip as only 1 day that we requested was available for booking. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.FromPLN 1,208

Tokyo Station/Nihonbashi Tokyo|1.59km from downtown
It was 5:30 PM in Otemachi, Tokyo, and a massive halo, like a holy light, enveloped the area, reflecting the silhouette of the world's most beautiful CBD on the glass facade of Otemachi Tower. Perched atop this magnificent skyscraper, Aman Tokyo, which stunned the world a decade ago, remains an unparalleled benchmark for modern city hotels.
｜The soaring 30-meter high atrium, crafted with washi lanterns, wood textures, and concrete and rock, creates a 'dry landscape' garden in the urban clouds.
｜The view facing the Imperial Palace is arguably Tokyo's most beautiful skyline (it ruthlessly trumps the already impressive view from the neighboring Bulgari).
｜While the ambiance at Arva, the Italian restaurant on the other side of the lobby, is superb, the food wasn't to my taste. I'd recommend the Aman Cafe on the first floor, a glasshouse enveloped by the 'Otemachi Forest' oasis instead.FromPLN 5,383

Ginza/Tsukiji Tokyo|0.31km from downtown
Though small, this hotel has everything you need. Its Ginza location is incredibly convenient, perfect for shopping or quickly getting to Narita Airport via the expressway.
What truly impressed me is how many features are packed into such a compact space. They have a coin-operated laundry and a large public bath. The room, which I'd estimate at about 20 square meters, even managed to fit bunk beds (1.2m/1.5m), making it very family-friendly.
A minor point is that since the hotel is directly above the subway, you occasionally feel vibrations as trains pass. This led to a funny moment when an actual earthquake hit at night, and I initially thought it was just another train going by!FromPLN 242

Tokyo Station/Nihonbashi Tokyo|1.84km from downtown
My overall experience with this stay was quite complex, feeling more like a test of service management capabilities.
On the first day, the room cleaning quality was noticeably below expectations. The wash area, countertop details, and some amenities weren't clean enough, and the bedding wasn't tidied properly. From a housekeeping management perspective, this felt more like a failure in process execution rather than an isolated incident, and it definitely affected my first impression.
However, after I raised the issue, the hotel's recovery actions were prompt. In the following days, the room cleaning was significantly more standardized, with noticeable improvements in detail. This indicates that the hotel is capable of good service, but the initial day's execution standards simply weren't met.
In contrast, Trip.com's service experience during this incident left a deeper impression. The customer service proactively followed up, communicated efficiently, and handled the situation professionally. They were able to push for problem resolution from a customer experience perspective, demonstrating a mature platform service system. This level of after-sales responsiveness is quite high among current online travel platforms.
Overall Rating:
The hotel's hardware and positioning are fine, but there's room for improvement in service consistency, especially regarding the first-day delivery standards of housekeeping management. Trip.com's coordination and service performance in this incident, on the other hand, highlighted the professional value of their platform.FromPLN 2,523

Shinjuku Area Tokyo|5.44km from downtown
I’d wanted to stay at this hotel for a long time and loved the idea of a traditional-style hotel right in the heart of Tokyo. The staff were very friendly, and I was happy to get a room on a higher floor as I had requested.
The room itself was very small and felt a bit outdated. For this price range, I expected a little more. However, the window — definitely the highlight of the room — offered an incredible view of the city.
The onsen was quite small, but wow. Being able to relax in an outdoor bath right in the center of Tokyo while looking out at the city was an amazing experience.
The breakfast was also very good.FromPLN 535

Very convenient location, noodles at night is delicious. Only downside is the shoe storage area smells a bit during rainy days. But staff is helpful and speaks good English. Hot spring is clean and nice. Definitely will be back again.FromPLN 273

Fantastic, definitely a four-star hotel. The lobby feels like a five-star, and the rooms are very new and spacious. The bathtub was super comfortable, I used it every night. The only downside is it's a bit far from the city center, but I would still choose to stay here again on my next trip to Tokyo. The value for money exceeded my expectations!FromPLN 250
