If you're capable of carrying your suitcase and you're on a tight budget, I'd suggest hauling it to your hotel; you'll save a couple of thousand yen over the course of your visit. The trip doesn't need to be terribly arduous. There are escalators to the platforms at Narita and at the stations where you arrive in Tokyo. If you stay near one of those stations, you might find it manageable.
For a hotel that's in your price range and quite convenient to the airport, I'll make my usual plug for Hotel Lungwood in Nippori. Yay, Lungwood!
You can take the Keisei line to Nippori station. The Keisei Skyliner costs 1,980 yen, but there are also somewhat slower limited express trains that take a little longer (71 minutes to Nippori) and cost 1,000 yen.
Hi jib71, yeah Chris just mentioned to me on the baggage storage earliar. My bad for missing that info. Thanks for your hotel recommendation too. I will check that out.
Btw since i will be there for 3 days, can u recommend me some must visit place for first time tourist? so that at least i can tell my friends i have been to tokyo. LOL. btw i checked through the forum, mostly mentioned about different so called "town" and not places of interest. thanks.
Well I won't try to go beyond the central tokyo 23 wards
some of the popular area
shinjuku
shibuya
roppongi
akihabara
harajuku
asakusa
ginza
daiba
these are merely scratching the surface of Tokyo and you definitely cannot finish them in 3 days. So please save your time from going anywhere beyond and save those for next time.
