Taking a vacation can be exciting, relaxing and exhilarating; however, frustration can arise when it comes to arranging a trip for the entire family. Finding a hotel with reliable transportation and children-friendly activities all on an affordable budget can be intimidating. But fear not, these 5 hotels in Tokyo are convenient, affordable and in great locations with outstanding family services!

1. Hotel Century Southern Tower: Convenience is key

Hotel Century Southern Tower

Planted in a great location with Shinjuku Station just minutes away, Hotel Century Southern Tower provides outstanding guest services for families looking for their ideal vacation spot. To travel in comfort and style, you can easily arrange a limousine bus with the hotel staff that transports you around Tokyo. You’ll never have to fret about dragging your luggage around, which is perfect for families who would rather spend time viewing beautiful Tokyo sites instead of fumbling with their bags and belongings.

Catch a train at Shinjuku Station, or take a break there since it is one of the most popular city areas with lots to offer for entertainment, romance and leisure. Other nearby areas include Takashimaya Times Square, Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, and Odakyu Department Store.

If you’re looking for an outstanding view, the rooms at Hotel Century Southern Tower are intentionally located a bit higher, so guests can see Tokyo Tower, or, if the weather allots, Mount Fuji will greet you in the morning.
