Have a picnic on the grassy lawns with views of a windmill and pond.

Near Funabashi Station, find the ancient Funabashi Daijingu Shrine, dedicated to the safety of fishermen and seafarers. Nearby, purchase local Funabashi pears, seafood and candy. Head to Sanbanze Ocean Park at Funabashi’s waterfront to spot birds, enjoy views of Tokyo Bay and let children play in the shallows.

"Fun and comfortable hotel to stay in. Despite being in the center of everything, it is surprisingly quite. The only annoying thing is that you have to take two elevators to get to your room and the Gozilla head is closed indefinitely."
