Our biggest concern with finding a hotel was the first night. We had to find a hotel that wasn't too far from Haneda airport. I then went onto the Haneda Airport website to find information on transportation from the airport to the hotel. After researching the options and reading through hundreds of reviews on hotels on travel websites, I decided on booking rooms at the Shin Yokohama Prince Hotel. There was a limousine bus that would leave around 10:30pm and would bring us directly to the hotel. That would be our best option being that it was our first time to Tokyo. I also read that this hotel was right next to the Shin Yokohama Train Station. The train would be our mode of transportation so it would be a perfect location.

The night before we left for Tokyo I found a youtube video that showed a person walking from the airplane, through customs and then purchasing a ticket for the limousine bus. I watched this video so that I had some idea of where to go when we got there. After walking through customs, I found the desk and we bought the bus tickets. The workers there were able to speak a little bit of English and gave us directions on where to wait for the bus. It was so easy and arriving at Haneda late at night helped since there weren't crowds of people throughout the airport. It was about a 45 minute ride to the Prince Shin Yokohama Hotel. We were dropped off right at the main door to the hotel and were in bed by midnight!
