Arriving NRT 11/28/19 Thursday 4:45 PM.
Going to take a car service from NRT to either Hilton Tokyo or Conrad.
Going to shower and stow bags at hotel.
Going souvenir/stocking-stuffer shopping near general area of hotel. Think Tokyu Hands or Daiso level of shopping.
Going to check out of hotel and head for HND. Flight to MNL leaves 11/29/19 Friday 1:30 AM.
Thanks!
Hi,
Just to confirm you are just talking about a 8 hour layover? ( ie leaving for MNL early morning)
By the time you get to Hilton or Conrad it will probably be appproaching 7pm and the hotels can be pricey so seems poor value.
You will probably not have a lot of time for shopping ( Tokyu hands shinjuku closes at 9pm)
But good luck if you want to try this.
If on JAL or ANA from HND you may be able to check in bags early so it might be better to go to HND, check in,get a shower then perhaps visit nearby or Gina/Shimbashi.
