Sir,
Journey will be around 10hours right? If take bus from Tokyo to Kyoto?

Depend road condition. If holiday season...more than that.

Normally if bus start from Shinjuku at 10pm, then arrived Kyoto at 7am morning

Oh ok. Thanks for your reply.

Sir, I see people always stay at ryokan in Osaka or Kyoto. How about Tokyo? I'm going to Tokyo with my cousins. They say want to try ryokan in Tokyo or minshu.

Asakusa got one Ryokan. I quite like it. Price start at 3500 Yen per person.

Thanks RC, just email them

Wah...looks like there's people also looking for ryokan in Tokyo. Hey, I've also found one ryokan at Asakusa named Ryokan Asakusa Shigetsu, this one got hot spring oh

RC, I'm abit confuse on the JR Pass now. Can I use JR pass on Subway Marunouchi and Yurakucho Lines? Cos I see it's in the green line

Nop.
Subway are not belong to JR

Yours need 16000Yen per night Mine just 3500Yen per night. Sure got difference.

Thanks, RC.

Okay noted! Thank you!

On day 1, I'll be taking the direct express from Shinjuku to Gotemba outlet then check in ryokan after shopping.

From gotemba station I take route G bus at bus stop 6 back to hakone-yumoto? http://www.hakone-tozanbus.co.jp/english/s...on/gotenba.html

Day 2 will be doing the hakone loop after check out with hakone free pass then go back to shinjuku.

I'm concerned since I'm not going to use it for Shinjuku -> Hakone Yumoto, will there be any problem if I use it for Hakone Yumoto -> Shinjuku?

Also, can I hop on the train anytime since I have the pass (according to their time table of course) or do I still need to reserve in advance? FYI won't be taking romance car.

Thanks in advance.

I just emailed them, but they are fully booked on the day I want, so sad!

Since Tokyo Ryokan is fully booked on the day that I want, now I'm looking for other alternatives....

1) Tama Ryokan (2 stations away from Shinjuku)

2) Taito Ryokan (Asakusa)

hi, anyone have an update on the weather now? Is it still typhoon in Tokyo? Gonna fly on 20th. :unsure
