They say it cost 500 yen per day for standard luggage, so it does cost you something but nothing to break your bank.
For the Narita to Hotel transport, it largely depends if your hotel is within the range of NEX which does not require further transit. Changing to normal train in rush hour with luggage is quite painful for me.
Personally I like Ikebukuro or Ueno for staying, which has easy JR and Metro access, and also it's cheaper. For night life you want to stay at Roppongi or Shinjuku (in certain extend Shibuya) and Shinagawa / Shiodome for more lay back. For your budget I will suggest you to check out business hotels like
Hotel Villa Fountaine,
Toyoko-inn, or
Super hotel.
The b Ikebukuro or their sister hotels also have some nice review which should also within your budget range.
BTW I will also in Tokyo in late June
enjoy your tokyo stay!
Hi Chris, thanks so much! 500 YEN seems reasonable
i will use the service then. Will only carry the smaller one. I really appreciate your hotel recommendation. Based on what you shared i think i will stay in the Ikebujuro/Ueno area. Is it far from Roppongi? as for sure will go out for some drink at night, moreover it is world cup season
Since you will be there, maybe we can meet up for some beer
Btw, i just checked the hotel recommended, it's quite expensive ard 16000 yen region. too bad my budget is around 9000 yen. which hotel that you are going to stay for your coming trip? thx
