Dormy Inn Express Asakusa

1-3-4 Hanakawado, Taito-ku

  • Great Value Hotel with Excellent Access to Central Tokyo

  • I recommend Dormy Inn EXPRESS Asakusa if you're looking for an affordable hotel with easy access to the city center. It's close to Asakusa Station on the Ginza Line, so you can get directly to major areas like Shibuya, Ginza, and Ueno without any transfers. This makes getting around super convenient, regardless of where your dinner show venue is. As part of the Dormy Inn group, this is an "EXPRESS" location. This means they offer simpler services, which is why the room rates are so attractive and "cheap." It's perfect if your main priority is the event and you want to save money on your hotel!

  • The Highlight: A Public Bath with Stunning Skytree Views

  • I recommend Dormy Inn EXPRESS Asakusa. While it's a budget-friendly business hotel, its real highlight is the "Asahi-yu," a large public bath on the top floor. Even if you get back late from your dinner show, you can soak in the spacious bath and unwind. The night view of the illuminated Tokyo Skytree from the open-air bath (called a rotenburo) is especially fantastic. Getting to have this bathing experience at such an affordable price is a really great deal.

  • There is a natural hot spring and the Skytree is right in front of you.

  • The best way to relieve the fatigue of your trip is to relax in a hot spring. From the large public bath, you can see the Skytree right in front of you, which is refreshing. It is close to the Toei Ginza Line, so it is easy to access the city center. It is also close to Sensoji Temple, so we recommend visiting Asakusa, which is bustling at the end of the year.

  • Asakusa Station is nearby and you can see the Skytree from your room.

  • This hotel is located opposite Asakusa Station, and the price is reasonable if you don't include meals. The best thing about this hotel is that you can see the Skytree from your room. Another attraction is that it has an observation bath. There is also a boat dock on the river in front, so there are many ways to enjoy it. This hotel is recommended for sightseeing in Tokyo.

Grand Nikko Tokyo Daiba

2-6-1 daiba minato-ku

  • Could Be Your Most Economical Choice if the Venue is Close

  • Grand Nikko Tokyo Daiba can be a great option, depending on where your dinner show is located. If the venue is in the Odaiba area or even inside the hotel itself, you'll save money on a late-night taxi or the hassle of a tiring train ride back. When you factor that in, it effectively becomes the "cheaper" stay. Of course, it's still convenient even if your venue is in central Tokyo. It’s about 15 minutes from Daiba Station to Shimbashi Station on the Yurikamome Line. Shimbashi is a major city hub, allowing for easy transfers to the JR Yamanote Line and the Ginza Subway Line.

  • The Perfect Hotel to Savor the Afterglow of a Special Dinner Show

  • If you're prioritizing a "special occasion experience" over just "low cost," then I also recommend Grand Nikko Tokyo Daiba. It's not a budget business hotel, but it is absolutely worth staying at for a special day like Christmas. Above all, the view from the room is the main attraction. The night view, featuring the Rainbow Bridge and Tokyo Tower, is a stunning, iconic Tokyo panorama. From the nearest station, Daiba, it's a quick ride to Shimbashi Station on the Yurikamome Line. From there, you can easily access anywhere in central Tokyo via JR or the subway. It's a hotel with great access where you can truly indulge in a luxurious feeling.

  • The romantic night view of Odaiba

  • Because it's in Odaiba, the night view is beautiful. It's also fun during the day. The rooms are spacious and come with a wide range of amenities, which is great for women. It's also very convenient, with only one stop to the city center on the Yurikamome line. For a high-class hotel, it's good value for money.

Shibuya Tobu Hotel

3-1 Udagawa-cho

  • Based at Shibuya Station: Your Hub for All of Central Tokyo

  • I highly recommend Shibuya Tobu Hotel for its incredibly easy access to the city center. It's within walking distance of Shibuya Station, which has so many public transport options—the JR Yamanote Line, Ginza Line, Hanzomon Line, and more. You can get directly to major hubs in Tokyo like Shinjuku, Ginza, and Omotesando without any transfers. Honestly, no matter where your dinner show venue is, you can't go wrong basing yourself in Shibuya. The hotel is right in the heart of Shibuya, so rather than calling it "cheap," I’d say it's "reasonable for the location." The value of that convenience is massive.

  • A Great Value Hotel Within Walking Distance of Shibuya Station

  • I really recommend Shibuya Tobu Hotel, especially if you're attending an event that runs late at night. It's located only about a 7-minute walk from Shibuya Station. Even late at night, Shibuya is bright and always has people around, so it gives you great peace of mind knowing you can walk back safely from the station, even after your dinner show ends. For a hotel located right in the heart of Shibuya, I think the rates are relatively inexpensive. The access to central Tokyo is fantastic, and when you consider that you don't have to worry about taxi fares or the last train, it might even end up being cheaper overall!

  • Hotels near Shibuya Station Hachiko Square

  • Since you're in Tokyo, why not stay somewhere in the city center, rather than a hotel that's easy to get to? Shibuya Tobu Hotel is a relatively affordable hotel with excellent access, just 7 minutes from Shibuya Station and within walking distance of Harajuku Station and Omotesando Station.

Hotel Metropolitan Edmont Tokyo

3-10-8 Iidabashi, Chiyoda-ku

  • A hotel with great access to the city

  • Transportation from the hotel is very convenient. For example, it is a 5-minute walk to JR Iidabashi Station and Suidobashi Station, and each subway line is within 10 minutes. There is also a convenience store inside the hotel, so once you enter the hotel, you don't need to go out. I recommend it. You won't have any trouble with food even if Accommodation only without meals.

Sotetsu Fresa Inn Higashi Shinjuku

7-27-9 Shinjuku Shinjuku-ku

  • A hotel in a great location right next to Higashi-Shinjuku Station

  • Since you didn't mention the specific location of the show, the desired price, or how many people you are going with, I'm not sure if this is the right place, but I recommend "Hotel Sunroute Higashi Shinjuku". The reason is that you can go to Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ikebukuro, and Roppongi in one train. Also, the nearest station is "Higashi Shinjuku Station", so it's close to the station exit and you can get there without getting wet even if it's raining.

Smile Hotel Tokyo Nihonbashi

2-13-5 Nihombashi, Kayabacho, Chuo-ku

  • It's convenient access to the city center!

  • Even though it's the city center, there are various places such as Shinjuku side and Ginza side, but if you are coming from the countryside by Shinkansen, it's better to stay closer to Tokyo Station. My personal recommendation is the Smile Hotel Tokyo Nihonbashi. A single room with breakfast costs about 9,000 yen, but considering the access, it's not bad.

Toyoko Inn Tokyo-eki Shin-Ohashi Mae

2-58-2, Nihon-bashi hama-cho, Chuo-ku

  • A business hotel located a few minutes' walk from Hamacho

  • This hotel is just a few minutes walk from Hamacho. It is part of the Toyoko Inn chain, famous for its reasonable accommodation. Considering the price, I think the service and rooms are satisfactory. Also, because it is located in Hamacho, it is convenient for quick access to Nihonbashi, Tokyo, and Ginza. It is also recommended as a base for sightseeing Tokyo.

Hotel Wing International Premium Tokyo-Yotsuya

3-14-1 Yotsuya

  • Hotels near Shinjuku Station and Yotsuya-Sanchome Station

  • It is very accessible, just a short walk from Yotsuya-Sanchome Station. You can also get there quickly by taxi or train from Shinjuku Station, Shinanomachi Station, or Sendagaya Station. It is more like a business hotel. There are many convenience stores and restaurants nearby, so it is convenient.

Ours Inn Hankyu

Shinagawa-ku Oi 1-50-5

  • Hotel with hot spring facilities in front of Oimachi Station

  • Oimachi Station is next to Shinagawa Station, 15 minutes from Tokyo Station, and has a direct bus to Haneda Airport, so it is easily accessible. Accommodation costs are around 6,000 yen, so it is recommended. You can also use the artificial hot spring, sauna, and open-air bath for an additional fee. There are many restaurants in the area, so you will not have any trouble finding something to eat.
