I have always wanted to go Japan with darling during sakura bloom in spring as I have been there once 2 yrs back and I'm totally amazed and intrigued by the beauty of the pretty sight. So even thou we already have our honeymoon to Bali (non-official! haha), our Japan trip has always been in the pipeline.
Our Flight
We took ANA as I partial redeemed points for the air tix. So it cost us SGD779 including tax to fly to Narita on ANA.
Our accomodation
Tokyo
Toyoko Inn Ikebukuro
Sakura Hotel Ikebukuro
Osaka
Toyoko Inn Tanimachi 4-chome
Hokkaido
Noboribetsu - Daiichi Takimoto Kaikan
Sapporo - Toyoko Inn Hokudai Mae
Hakodate - Toyoko Inn Asaichi
As you can see, we spent alot of our stays in Toyoko Inn. Its is a very large business hotel chain in Japan and they even have hotels in Korea. Highly recommended because of their cheap rates (Japan hotels are well known to be expensive), clean rooms, good service with basic ammenities provided and most importantly, they are always found near the major train stations.
The ryokan we stayed in Noboribetsu was well known for its Onsen. More abt it later...
JR Pass
we bought the 14-day JR pass at JPY 45,100 each. Cost us in SGD 650 per pax cos JPY suddenly shot up when we wanted to buy the pass. Sigh..
With the hotels and transportation planned, we are ready to set off!
