Excluding flights I want to spend about £2500 for a trip of 8-12 days in Tokyo for 2 people. I am not sure how to get the most for my money. I want a relatively nice hotel, but think I would prefer to have more spending money while there. I've currently booked a hotel which I can cancel the reservation for at no charge for a while and have calculated for the 9 day trip my girlfriend and I would have about £200 a day as spending money. We both love food (not necessarily expensive food). Any tips on what kind of hotel/spending money trade off should be? Also any recommendations for restaurants and hotels etc. would be appreciated (prices would help!). I was also open to visiting other parts of Japan but getting to Tokyo is significantly easier and cheaper than anywhere else.
Stayed at Smile Hotel Mitsukoshimae a few years back. Not luxurious or anything but not bad at all and pretty cheap, relatively. Walk about 5 minutes to get to a subway station to go to more popular places around Tokyo.

Thanks for your reply! The hotel I have booked is cheaper for my dates. It seems located fairly well (not expecting true city centre for this price)...http://www.hvf.jp/eng/location/tamachi.php what do you think?
During my trip I always stayed in a toyoko inn. Best business hotels

Is it not worth staying at a slightly nicer hotel and having a bit less spending money? I'm not bothered but my girlfriend is quite keen for the hotel to have a swimming pool

depends mate, it's your money
probably best to keep her happy like but you don't want to spend all day in a hotel pool surely?
that being said it depends on what the price difference is between the hotels

Been a few times now get the cheapest hotel you can find youll only be sleeping there anyway. Food wise you cant go wrong except eating fast food. I cant think of a single time I had a bad food or a bad experience try everything and just do it live.
