Hi all! Yes, today we are doing another ‘5 (ish) Minute Review – where I do a short review on a place I stayed. Today Tokyo and Japan are hugely popular destinations for the world traveller, and that means finding a room is an important thing people have to do when visiting!

But what sort of value can you expect in Tokyo, where demand has forced prices only one direction – up. The &Here Tokyo Ueno, located in the very much bustling district of Ueno, was around $350AUD a night or $240USD. So, not cheap because the room – well it’s not all ‘belts and whistles’.

But the hotel has a spa and other facilities, and is very well located. So check out the video, and see what $350AUD gets you in Japan’s capital in late May 2026!
