Hi guys,

So fed up with working and tokyo'busy. I am looking for a place close Tokyo where i can relax after almost dead with working overtime for the whole weeks.

Any advice will be highly appreciated.

Thank you,

Go to Odawara > Yumoto... find a nice onsen resort and spend 2 days there :)

Nikko is nice, too.

Thank you.

Oh same with me

Have you decided to go somewhere at this weekend?

weekend trip eh??

Kusatsu Onsen, Hakone, Nikko, Yamanashi, Takaki

hmmm what do you prefer?

Nikko or hakone could be fine. Do you guys have any experience with hotels or services at there?can i have some recommendations?

Yup... I am a frequent at a place call tenseien (天成園) in Hakone Yumoto. Its nice and cheap, and the onsen there is decent. I can't find an English website for it, but here is the japanese website:

Here is an un-official english site: Japanese Guest Houses - Tenseien

Have fun

When I was in Nikko , I stayed at Nikko Park Lodge. I stayed in a dorm type room cause its cheaper :D , the amenities are pretty basic and the service is OK. The owner is a very nice Japanese Lady who can speak english and with her are 2 other english speaking staff. Also I love the location, and near Nikko station so pretty convenient too. It's really a place to just relax, and get away from the city life :D
