On tight budget, how much does a week holiday in Tokyo cost?

Question:


Guys, I need some help, I'm graduating from high school this november, I'm thinking of going Tokyo from Singapore. However, I'm on a tight budget (well, as a student). Any recommendations for cheap hostel/hotel, transportation, food places (v impt!) and tourist attractions. Been to Tokyo once when I'm 10- so I'm only slightly familar with the place.
Last but not least, recommendation of airlines?
Thanks loads!!

Answer:


A regular hotel will set you back about USD$100 a night for a single room or USD$150 for a double. Try a Business Hotel for a good compromise with prices around USD$70 for a single room and USD$100 for a double. I recommend the Toyoko Inn hotel chain located all over Japan.

Prices at regular Japanese restaurants are usually USD$8-$15 a meal, but food can cost you about USD$5-8 a meal if you eat at budget Japanese restaurants like Yoshinoya, Sukiya, and CoCo Ichiban Curry House.

I would say about USD$80-100 a day is possible done on a budget.
