Hi,

I am a long term lurker, but I have a question that I am unable to get an answer to without some local knowledge.

I have a meeting in the Fuchinobe area. See http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&sour...7&z=15&iwloc=A.

The last time we did this we stayed in Yokohama and took the 1-hour each-way train ride down to Fuchinobe. Then someone mentioned what I had always thought by looking at the map. It is possible to stay in Tokyo, get in some night-life or taste of life in Japan and still make it in the same 1-hour time frame to Fuchinobe.

Does anyone have such a hotel or location in mind? They recommended Machida, but that is not Tokyo enough for me, who has spent 0 days in Tokyo so far. Any good hotel recommendation would be appreciated. Can be either a Japanese or a western hotel.

Thanks.
