Tokyo is an intoxicating blend of ancient and contemporary, a kaleidoscopic metropolis of blazing neon lights and timeless temples, Michelin-star eats and avant-garde fashion. Diagonally opposite Shinjuku Chuo Park is the Hilton Tokyo, a high-rise hideaway from which you can plan your retail expedition through Shinjuku, one of Tokyo's premier hubs for shopping, dining and entertainment. All the standout department stores are here, from Isetan to Takashimaya. Book a suite at the Hyatt Regency, also in Shinjuku, and you're close to some of Tokyo's best eateries. The tiny Michelin-starred Shinjuku Kappo Nakajima, famous for its low-priced lunches, is a six-minute cab ride away.

If Tokyo is Japan’s big, beating heart, then Kyoto is its quiet, contemplative soul. Brimming with imperial history – it was the capital of Japan for more than 1000 years – Kyoto’s gardens, temples and wooden houses give it the appearance of a picture-perfect Zen village in parts, despite its 1.46 million inhabitants. Sleek and modern, The Thousand Kyoto is only a few minutes walk from Kyoto Station and 10 minutes from the imposing Higashi Honganji Temple complex. Celebrate sakura (cherry blossom) season between mid-March and mid-April by indulging in some hanami (flower viewing) at Maruyama Park, a two-minute walk from the APA Hotel Kyoto Gion EXCELLENT.
