Top hotels in Higashi
Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Haneda Airport - Directly connected to Haneda Airport Terminal 3
Fabricated bathrooms No facial tissues Bathroom was rather small. I guess it was ok for a one night stay. Not sure I would call it GRAND HOTEL it’s conveniently located. Should spend more money on upgrading the rooms rather than the lobby. My two cents

Hotel Gracery Shinjuku
I wish the Godzilla terrace was open. The beds are very hard like a board. Great location in the heart of Shinjuku. Good access to subway and train. The limousine bus stop to and from the airport is one block away.
