March in Tokyo
For a first trip, Shinjuku is the simplest machine: trains, food and neon until late. Asakusa buys you old Tokyo and lower rates. Ginza is the calm, polished choice; Ueno is the practical one for museums, kids and day trips.
Spring
Cherry blossom season draws the biggest crowds and tends to push up prices, especially around the most famous parks. Days are generally mild and good for walking, though spring weather can change quickly. Book well ahead if flowers are the reason for the trip.
Spring and autumn are the most requested seasons, and hotel rates tend to follow: book early if cherry blossoms or autumn colours are the plan. Summer is hot and humid, with school holidays and festival crowds making the city feel fuller. Winter is cooler and quieter in some districts, though year-end illuminations keep the popular areas busy.
