Your schedule is perfect for this approach, since the bus stop is easy to find at the hotel but perhaps a bit harder to find at Maihama - but once you've taken the bus from the hotel to Maihama you'll know how to reverse the route.
Hi,
Thanks for that. I have seen it but on my last time the queue for the bus at HTB was large ( probably more than 1 bus ) so we took the Disney Resort Line . My brother's partner is a disney fan so she will love the DRT but we will see how the queues are. It will be their first time to Tokyo ( I have been 4 times now so will be acting as the navigtor/guide around tokyo!)
It will be good to see them again ( they were due here in Scotland last Christmas but had to cancel as she was undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer which is now almost finished ( successfully)
Regards
