When you're feeling hungry, the place to go is Itamae Sushi Edo. This is a sushi shop located beside Akasaka Mitsuke Station, highly popular with international visitors.
Itamae Sushi Edo's interior is based on an Edo period theme, and customers here can eat tasty sushi made with maguro tuna and other fresh fish.
While some sushi restaurants generally expect customers to sit at the counter and quietly eat their sushi, we were happy to hear that at Itamae Sushi Edo, customers sit in semi-enclosed booth seats and can enjoy a lively conversation as they have their meal!

The restaurant also offers customers the unique opportunity to put on a yukata, and have their picture taken! These photos will be ideal for posting on SNS, allowing you to record your precious experience!
After a delicious meal at Itamae Sushi Edo, let's walk over to MIMARU TOKYO AKASAKA. We can take a break and freshen up, then head out for a night of entertainment in Roppongi.
MIMARU TOKYO AKASAKA - Convenient for Sightseeing
The main characteristic feature of MIMARU TOKYO AKASAKA is that it's an apartment-style hotel. Each room has a living room, dining room, mini-kitchen, and bathroom/shower.
At MIMARU you can cook a meal and eat it in the dining room, take a leisurely bath, and spend time comfortably as you would in your own home. You'll have a relaxing trip and rather than just visiting, it'll feel like your home away from home.
Each room can accommodate up to four guests. In addition, up to two children (under six years of age) can stay overnight free of charge.
Also, two rooms (four people each) can be connected, accommodating a total of eight adults and four children. So for families and groups, you don't have to worry about being separated and staying in different parts of the hotel.
All the rooms are large and give you a spacious kind of feeling, and it's reassuring to know that you'll be able to spend time here together in a friendly and relaxed manner.
Hotel charges are per room (not per person), and the cost for a four-person room starts from 26,000 yen. For example, if four people stay in a room this works out to 6,500 yen per person, so staying in a group is your most economical option.
In terms of access to MIMARU TOKYO AKASAKA, it's only four minutes on foot from Tokyo Metro's Akasaka Station, and fifteen minutes on foot from Roppongi Station. So even if you stay out having fun until the wee hours of the morning in the Roppongi area, you won't have to worry about when the last train leaves.
Let's make ourselves a drink and relax, then head out to Roppongi for an evening of entertainment!
