Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Haneda Airport - Directly connected to Haneda Airport Terminal 3
Super convenient for Haneda airport, you can walk straight to the terminal. Check in was very efficient, using automated booths. Only downside was WiFi not working in our room.

Hotel Gracery Shinjuku
The rooms are fine size, not super large like most US chains but perfect for just two of us. We got lucky and scored a high floor and the view was spectacular. This chain tops the list for efficient check in/check out. Great location.
