☆~Abipop's guide to Tokyo: Best places to stay!~☆



Hello Everyone~~! ^-^

I'm starting a new little series on my blog to help you guys with your trip to Tokyo, Japan~!♪
Each blog post will focus on a different topic and location to help you plan your dream holiday to Tokyo!!

A lot of you guys have been asking me where the best place to stay is! So Today's blog is about "The Best places to stay in Tokyo" (On a budget and not on a budget)


Let's start of with good places if you are staying in a group of say around 4!

When I went to Japan for the 1st time, I found a lovely apartment on Airbnb for us lot to stay in~♪ Airbnb is a fantastic place to find cheap home-like accommodation~! ^-^

Now when staying in Tokyo, I wanted to visit all the main spots for example, Harajuku, Akihabara, Shibuya ect~!

So I chose this wonderful place:


https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/1725792

Between the 4 of us, It worked about about £205.32 each for 1 week here!
Ofc course that can be a little more pricey for some but for what you get this is incredible~!
You are 5 minutes from Otsuka JR line (Yamanote line) which is the line that takes you to all these main spots in Tokyo!♪

They provide so many instructions on how to get here from both Majour airports and how long it will take and how much it will cost (Btw Travel in Japan is so cheap!)♪
You also get a Portable wifi with this apartment so where-ever you go, you will have an internet connection~!!









 It's a beautiful area I cannot recommend this place enough~!!♪


Onto Hotels~~!♪

I have many many friends who go to Japan for holiday's each year and have found the cheapest and best location hotel's ever~♪

Now again I wanted to be close to the JR Yamanote line♪!

I recommend the "Sakura Hotel - Ikebukuro"
It was only 1 stop away from the last place I stayed and again 5 minutes walk away from the train station~!!
( Also I recommend booking this via "Booking.com)

I stayed with my friend Kelsey in this hotel and we chose the "Standard Double Room"
It was very very tiny and not much room at all! But some how we managed to get ready, hair, make-up and 4 suitcases in there! ^-^


This was about £320 for 12 nights and 13 days each~!♪









not bad concidering the price huh? They also had hair dryers, towels, adapters you name it ready for you to borrow~~♪!


Now onto the hella pricey but beautiful hotel~♪

If you have the cash to do this, I HIGHLY recommend this hotel. It was.. BEAUTIFUL. and incredibly spacious~! *dreams*


Prince Park Hotel Tokyo Tower

This hotel is a 10-15 minute walk from Tokyo Tower and tube stations~! and also has some beautiful scenery around the area!
This hotel is VERY VERY expensive but boy do you feel like royalty staying in this place~!
You get the most beautiful and incredible views from your balcony's too!






This is a photo I took from my balcony of this hotel when it was pouring with rain the night we arrived! So so pretty ^-^

Here are some of the rooms they have here:
Stunning.. all of them even the smaller ones~!!♪









I really really recommend this place even for a couple nights if you can afford too! Stunning! SO beautiful inside and out!

You are close to a couple tube lines too so don't worry about getting lost~!
The staff speak english too! Also has a water fountain inside the building xD




I really hope that this post will help you with finding the best place to stay in Tokyo for you trip to Japan~!!♪

Ofc you can browse all the other amazing AirBnB or Booking.com places to find more deals~! but these are my personal preferences :3

There are more post's coming up including places to eat/shop/go ect~!♪
Please look out for those!

Thank you guys for reading!

I cannot say a bad things about Spreepicky's 'shipping as it's just so good!

Let's move on to the items I have ordered~!

♡ Stock photos ♡ 
(as many as I could find as some product's have been retired)

♡ Packaging ♡ 

SpreePicky are always on point with their packaging~♪
When they first started their business they started with really simple bags to keep the items in, But as they grew and grew online, They changed their packaging to REALLY cute white bags with their logo's on and a quote~♡♡
They also put in little messages of Thank-You's and add a "Free Gift" With your order!
Which I think is such a nice touch!
♡

5/5 for Packaging! 
★★★★★


♡ Photos of Packaging ♡





As you can see, Each item SpreePicky is individually wrapped in their official packaging♪ Along with a sweet note and a free gift with each purchase~!! How sweet!!♡


 ♡ My photos ♡

♡ My photos ♡
photos of me wearing the garments.











♡ Quality ♡ 

SpreePicky have always impressed me with their quality of the clothing they sell~! Almost all items I have bought or received have been well made and last a long time!
For example the wigs almost look like real hair♪ ( ∩´ω`*∩)♡
They're very comfortable to wear and looks hella cute on! Also the sailor dress, not a stitch out of place as you can see in the photos I took of them straight out of the packaging~!
♡♡

The only one thing that got me was the bow on the sailor dress, the back could of been a little neater but that is me just being picky haha xD

♡ Overall review♡ 

Overall SpreePicky ranks highly for me for a cute J-fashion & Cosplay store~!
They're always so kind and prompt when replying to questions or e-mails, They have a wide range of clothing, shoes and accessories for all sizes~!
They update weekly with new products on their Storenvy shop & on their website♪

And they are really responsibly priced~!


So I will give SpreePicky a 5/5 this time for my review~!♪
