Tranportation
We have two international airports around Tokyo. One is Haneda airport and the other is Narita airport.
From Haneda airport to Tokyo city
Via train:
From Haneda Airport to Tokyo City, the Tokyo Monorail Line or the Keikyu Line connects you to the JR Line. For the Monorail Line, change the train at Hamamatsu-cho (浜松町) station (last stop) to the JR Yamanote Line. For the Keikyu Line, change at Shinagawa (品川) station to the JR Yamanote Line. In both cases, take JR Yamanote Line (山手線) bound for Tokyo station or Ueno (上野) station (Yamanote Line Inner Loop "内回り") to the station close to your hotel.
