Akihabara is a district within a district. It's situated on the northern edge of Chiyado City but has a distinct feel of its own...slightly hipper and more contemporary than its sedate, sophisticated neighbour. It used to be the place to go to buy all your electronics (you can still get them here) but these days it's better known for its anime and manga scene. Our pick of the hotels here tend to be better value options, yet properties that certainly don't skimp on style. For a wider selection, check out all our recommended hotels in Tokyo.
