More about Minato, Tokyo

Where to Stay in Minato

Despite being part of Tokyo, Minato is effectively a city in itself, with several distinct districts and neighbourhoods. Arguably the most popular area for expats - especially those looking to sample a little of the local nightlife - in Roppongi. Roppongi is popular with both locals and tourists and also offers a great base from which to explore the more central areas of Tokyo. Similarly, Daiba has emerged recently as another social hotspot for westerners living in Minato. Those seeking quieter places, yet which still offer unique streetscapes can head to the more local areas of Aoyama, Azabu, Akasaka, Takanawa, and Shibaura. Here the modern streets merge seamlessly with the more traditional Japanese architecture and unique way of life. Alternatively, for something a little more in-between, Shiodome and Azabujuban offer many of the modern facilities that Roppongi does, whilst still presenting western visitors with something of a culture shock,
