Where to Stay in Tokyo (First-Time Visitors)
Choose your area based on your priority:
- Shinjuku: best all-round transport + nightlife.
- Shibuya: trendier, great for first-time energy and shopping.
- Tokyo Station/Ginza: clean and efficient, strong for business-style trips.
- Asakusa/Ueno: better value, traditional atmosphere.
Rule of thumb: prioritize station convenience over landmark views.
