Great service and probably the best food I've ever eaten at altitude.

Tokyo's Haneda Airport is slick, modern and well connected to major transport hubs.

Airport review: A world leader in dining

Haneda's hallmark is "food, glorious food" but plane nerds are in for a treat too.

Tokyo hotel review: Bustle-free location, minutes from everywhere

A short train ride from anywhere yet wrapped up in a bustle-free bayside bubble, this hotel is best of all worlds.

Haneda Airport in Tokyo doesn't feel like an airport.

Sorry, Singapore: Another airport is really the best in the world

My favourite airport in the world doesn't feel like an airport. And that's the key.

The view from the Tokyo Palace Hotel is exceptional.

Unparalleled views in central Tokyo

Everything here is serene and composed, the ideal antidote to the boisterousness of Tokyo at large.

The U-shaped bar at OUT Tokyo.

The Tokyo eatery serving only one dish, one wine, one soundtrack

The 12-seat design of Out is spare, but the menu is positively skeletal.

Kabuki-cho, Tokyo

Tokyo's busiest district has a secret, seedy underbelly

It's peak Tokyo. It's intimidating. It's bold and brash. But it also has a warm heart.

An exploding pinata, all colour and energy and promise, Tokyo is a love them or hate them type of city. Tackle the city's wildest nightlife in Shinjuku; drop by teenybopper haven in Harajuku; explore old town Tokyo in Asakusa; and hit the shops in Shibuya. Slide into the city's quiet cracks for a green tea latte and some downtime; but remember there's no escaping this city's bright lights.
