      Some ticket offices may sell them intermittently but this is very unlikely in Tokyo. Other than buying one secondhand, the cities where you will most likely be able to purchase a blank Suica from a ticket office are Aomori, Morioka and Akita.

    Quick comment on suica app for iphones, my friends from california used it on their trip to tokyo a week ago, and it worked perfectly, He was also able to add funds to the app easily in english. I, on the other hand, have an android phone, and the app appears to be only in japanese. I was unable to get a suica card at terminal 2, I ended up buying train tickets for the 12 trips we made on local trains on that trip. take care!

    Is there an analysis that will show if it's worth staying(paying) at lower tier hotels, to gain the points which you then use to stay for free at higher tier hotels? And, is it better to use the points for free nights, or, can points be used as a way to upgrade your room from the level that you have paid for, and that's a smarter way to use points?

    • @ardens-travel-guide
      @ardens-travel-guide Месяц назад

      You can always take the cash price and divide by the points price to see what the value per point is for a particular stay. If the value is low, it's better to pay cash but if the amount is high, it's better to pay with points. Booking a hotel stay you don't need for the sole purpose of earning points will almost never make sense. Unfortunately, Marriott doesn't have a good way to use points for upgrades and it's best to use points for free nights.

    Suite night award is only on paid nights which do not include non-refundable advance purchases. So basically, you have to first pay a premium rate in cash, in order to see if you can get the “free” upgrade

    • @ardens-travel-guide
      @ardens-travel-guide Месяц назад

      There are indeed problems using Nightly Upgrade Awards (formerly called Suite Night Awards) with non-refundable advance purchase bookings. But they can also be used for award stays booked with points or free night certificates, not just paid stays.

    • @ardens-travel-guide

      The rooms here will be larger than what you can get for a similar price in central Tokyo so I personally don't mind taking the train 30-40 minutes from here to Tokyo station area for a couple of days. If you plan to visit many places further West than Ikebukuro or Shinjuku, then you'll likely want to stay somewhere closer.

    • @ardens-travel-guide
      @ardens-travel-guide 3 месяца назад

      Titanium is reached at 75 nights in a year but the amount of points you earn depends on how much you spend. If you regularly pay for expensive hotels rather than cheaper hotels, you'll have more points. When you book a hotel using points, they will be deducted from your account.

    Hi! Thank you for the video and review. My wife and I will be visiting Tokyo Disneyland this month and part of our stay, we chose this hotel. I have a couple of questions as I am trying to decide how to book our nights with points. Since we have Platinum status, I know we have access to the Club Lounge already. Would you recommend booking a Club Level room with points still? Or just a regular room and still have lounge access? For the welcome gift, if we choose the Galleria buffet, is the buffet free for just one day or the whole duration of our stay? If it’s just one day, how much is the breakfast buffet daily? Lastly, how does purchasing park tickets work? Should we wait until we get to the hotel to buy tickets? Or buy them before we travel there to Tokyo? Are there early entry perks to the parks for staying at the Sheraton? I know I asked a lot of questions and I appreciate your response. Thank you so much for your help!

    • @ardens-travel-guide
      @ardens-travel-guide 3 месяца назад

      I never book a club level room because there's a chance of getting upgraded to one anyway with platinum status. If you're concerned about getting an old, unrenovated room due to upgrades being unavailable, you can book a park wing or ocean dream room. If you select breakfast as a welcome gift, you'll get a voucher for each morning of your stay. The Sheraton does not have early entry into any of the Disney parks. Only the Disney hotels have early entry with the Miracosta and Fantasy Springs Hotel being the only ones which currently give early entry into both Disneyland and DisneySea. You need to purchase tickets in advance to enter the parks. These days, I purchase from Klook when I know which day I want to visit and am comfortable with the exchange rate for yen. You can get 5 USD off your first purchase from Klook if you sign up using my referral link below: www.klook.com/en-US/invite/EU8GUL Be aware that sometimes, Klook will not allow discounts to be used for Tokyo Disney tickets but you can still use it for other attractions in Japan that are sold on Klook.
