City break - Tokyo tour

• Tourist tax: Some hotels may charge a local tax of around ¥200/person/night (≈£1.37 / $1.93), payable in cash at reception. In some 4★ hotels, this may be slightly higher.
• Room size: 3★ hotels offer good comfort but rooms are compact (Twin 16-20, Single 12-16 m²). For more space, consider the 4★ upgrade.
• Double rooms: Usually twin beds (can be joined). A double bed can be requested as a supplement.
• Single rooms: Solo travelers must pay a single supplement, mandatory for odd-number groups. Applies to all hotels except ryokans, where shared spacious rooms can host up to 5 guests.
• Triple rooms: Allocated for groups of 3, 5 or more without a single supplement.
• Groups (>5 people): Depending on availability, not all members may stay in the same hotel, but we’ll aim to keep you nearby.
• Hotel names: Indicative only; equivalent alternatives may be used.
• Ryokan stays: Guests sleep on futons on tatami mats with private toilet/sink. Shared onsen baths (not mixed) unless you select a private bath option (recommended for families, couples, or guests with tattoos). 4★ ryokans feature private bathrooms and raised futons or Western beds.

• Breakfasts: If not included, breakfasts can be added upon arrival at your hotel. Nearby cafés often offer tastier and more affordable options than hotel breakfasts, which tend to be savoury and served on a fixed schedule.
