Super specials at Tokyo hotels from agoda.com

SINGAPORE - Agoda.com, Asia’s leading hotel booking site and part of Nasdaq-listed Priceline Group (Nasdaq: PCLN), today announced super specials at top hotels in Tokyo.

Steeped in tradition, yet one of the world’s most futuristic cities, Tokyo is a destination that never loses its edge. With a landscape encompassing skyscrapers, volcanic peaks, shinto shrines, and sakura-strewn parks, travelers have much to discover within its wards.

One of the latest additions to Tokyo’s skyline is Tokyo Sky Tree, the world’s tallest tower at 634 meters. The Sky Tree allows visitors to see Tokyo from a whole new perspective – from observation decks 350 meters and 450 meters above street level.

Another new development is DiverCity, a mega-complex on Odaiba Island in Tokyo Bay. DiverCity comprises a huge mall, restaurants, sporting venues, and offices – plus a supersized robot statue from the Gundam animated series. Odaiba Island is also home to traditional bath houses, Zepp music hall, Tokyo Leisure Land, two city beaches, and a replica Statue of Liberty.

Though new malls, stores, and high-rises crop up constantly, Tokyo’s classic attractions remain enthralling. Akihabara – Electric Town – is still of endless intrigue to electronics aficionados, while the shopping of Takeshita pedestrian street in Harajuku can keep fashionistas occupied for as long as their credit card holds out.

For a mid-city retreat, the Meiji Shrine allows travelers to take a break with a vast evergreen forest to wander and sacred Shinto customs to observe. Nearby, Yoyogi Park provides another green space for more relaxation and people-watching.

Accommodation in Tokyo maintains the city’s status quo for efficiency and service. Hospitality here is ranked among the best in the world – even the most affordable hotels include the full range of comfort amenities, while the five-star properties offer superlative levels of luxury and service, not to mention advanced in-room technology and top-notch design.
