How to get to Intercontinental Hotel (Tokyo Bay) from Narita airport at night?


Travel Info
Hi, need help from anyone who knows the way, thank you!

I'm going to visit Japan from Australia in July but just found out the taxi to my hotel would be crazy and the limousine bus only operates till 6pm. My plane arrive at 6:30pm.

I'm not sure about the other railways stations at night. Are they safe, are they near my hotel?Also have lugguage to carry.

What is the best/safe way to get there?

Thanks lots

Almost all modes are safe to get anywhere in Japan...people can actually sleep on benches in the park without any fear. Not that I'm encouraging anyone to do that...

You are correct in saying that the limo bus services end at 6pm. Thats when the scheduled services end. http://www.limousinebus.co.jp/en/timetab...

So your best bet is to take the train. From Narita...you have two trains you can take. One is the expensive (but nicer) Narita Express (which features luggage room for those traveling with a lot of bags) or the Airport Narita (Rapid) which is a regular commuter train down to Tokyo Station. From there...you need to connect to the JR Yokosuka Line and travel down to Shimbashi. From there...connect to the Yurikamome and travel down to Takeshiba which is right next
to your hotel. Or...another way to get to Shimbashi is to travel by Keisei trains (Skyliner or their commuter service) down to Nippori from Narita and change off to the JR Keihin-Tohoku Negishi Line to get to Shimbashi...and ride the Yurikamome.

Do a search on this website to get from Narita Airport to Shimbashi (Shimbashi to Takeshiba should only be served by the Yurikamome.)

Oh and I would reccommend using the Narita Express to get down to your place...because right now there is a great deal on getting a cheap one way ticket into Tokyo on board the Narita Express and you get a 1500 yen pass to travel on almost any of the rail lines in Tokyo. Learn more here:

get the hotel to transfer you dude
The easiest way to get around Tokyo is by train. It is so safe, you could even leave you bags in another carrige (no kidding!). You have NO reason at all to feel threatened or unsafe. I'm living in Tokyo and am from Australia and thought that Australia was safe, but Japan is so so much safer. I walk around everyday on a packed train with my bag open and my iPod, phone and wallet in the front pocket. I would never do that in Australia!

Most places in Tokyo arent far from a station. So you could check out the website below to get train times and if need be get a taxi from the train station to your hotel. Trains are pretty regular. Have you tried contacting the hotel and seeing if they offer a service?
