Now that there is a Hilton here I might spend a couple of days later this year ( although it is around 30mins from Shinjuku by train roughly)

For a first time visitor to Japan ( how long are you staying in Japan) I would probably not visit Yokohama ( if you are only staying in Tokyo for say 1 week or more then a day trip to Yokohama could be good). Have you though about your itinerary ( lots of advice on the Japan forum)

I would probably do ( if I had a week), Tokyo ( with a day trip possibly to the five lakes area for Mt Fuji) & Kyoto for a first time trip

I agree with The_Banking_Scot, I lived in Tokyo and I have made numerous weekend day trips to the Yokohama area. Yokohama is a nice area. However, as a first-time visitor to Japan, there will be so many things to do in Japan and Tokyo area on the list above Yokohama. As a first-time visitor, you will not miss a thing by skipping Yokohama.
