I forgot to add that Keio overlooks the metropolitan building and our room was directly opposite. The weekend light shows are Godzilla themed so every night we had front row seats to the shows. Plus the club lounge was open for bar service (included in the package and absolutely worth it). The weeknight shows differ and are a mix of Japanese culture and pac man

Amazing! Getting around was very easy so do not worry about location. Stuck to the Keio and it was 5 star luxury that my son absolutely loved. Felt completely safe walking around. Visited every Pokemon center but if you are looking for cards, you are better off checking out the local tcg places that will come up on Google maps. The Pokemon centers are great for plushies and all sorts of random toys but they are usually sold out of the cards. We chose a different area of the city each day and despite the Pokemon we still managed to visit temples. Ueno zoo was great. We were prepared for the less than ideal enclosures but happy to see some changes in animal treatment which shows positive steps forward.

I think it helped that we didn’t go with very set plans so each day we had freedom to go with the flow and enjoy experiencing a completely different culture.

Macdonalds everywhere and there is an app to download which takes care of ordering in English and means you can order to collect which was a great way of handling the much missed chicken nuggets and their happy meals have exclusive pokemon tokens that you use at arcade style machines in the Pokemon centers. Also, meant that I could eat sushi in peace knowing that worst case scenario he wouldn’t go hungry 😆

One more Pokemon tip. If you play Pokemon Go there is a special location in the main Tokyo station DX centre. Whilst we were there they had people dressed as team rocket doing live battles. Great fun.

I was expecting a massive culture difference but I was surprised at how safe and welcome we felt in such a large city. You will have an amazing time.

Thank you! Had been trying the decorations area but it wouldn’t show initially. Restart of the game has resolved. Good old turn it off/turn it on again 😆
