Transport from Yokohama Cruise Terminal to Tokyo Shinjuku

[yael5]

Hello, 

We want to join our hôtel  Ibis at Tokyo Shinjuku,  after our cruise,  and the boat arrives at Yokohama  Cruise Terminal.   Is there a shuttle to go  to the Subway  station ?  What would be the best way to go to the hôtel ? 

Many  thanks  fort your help...

When you exit the Osanbashi Cruise Terminal in Yokohama, you need to go to the Minatomirai Subway Line Station called "Nihon-Odori". This station is located just 2 blocks away from the Terminal.

You are nearly at the end of the line. One direction takes you just one stop to Yokohama's Chinatown.

The other direction takes you through Yokohama Station to Shibuya Station in Tokyo.

The Local Train will take about 1 hour to Shibuya; the Express will take about 31 minutes. The cost is the same for both trains -about 500 yen.

At Shibuya Station the train changes names  - to Fukutoshin Line. But you need not do anything. Just stay on the train a few more stops to Shinjuku-Sanchome Station.

Shinjuku-Sanchome Station is a very short taxi ride from your hotel.

Thanks for  these  very useful informations !   I think we will take the Express train  for Shinjuku Sanchome station.  "Local"  or "Express"   is indicated on the trains ?  And what is the name of the line,  from Nihon-Odori to Shibuya Station?  I undestand that we stay in this train,  after this station,  to join Shinjuku..

@yael5 It‘s two different trains... the one from Yokohama port (Nihon-Odori) to Yokohama is a subway and the one from Yokohama Station to Shinjuku is a „regular“ commuter train.

Thanks,  Oliver  !  So,  subway from Nihon-Odori  to Yokohama  Station,  and then,  train line JR Schonan Shinjuku   to Shinjuku station..  That's  right ?

Not quite right.

Get on the Minatomirai Line ( 急行 Express Train) at Nihon-Odori Station in Yokohama.

The train technically ends at Shibuya Station in Tokyo.

Actually the very same train continues to Shinjuku Sanchome Station with a new designation "Fukutoshin Line".

You just remain on the same train until Shinjuku Sanchome.

Hello BruceMuzz, 

So,  we have just one train Express from Nihon-Odori station until Shinjuku Sanchome station ?

That is correct.

After Shibuya, the sign on the front of the train will change, and it will no longer be an express. But that doesn't matter. Shibuya to Shinjuku Sanchome is just a few stops.

[yael5]

Thanks for your help !   And,  for  the return to Haneda  International Airport,  we go to Shinjuku Sanchome Station,  too,    take Yamanote  Line  to Hamamasutcho Station,  and  then,  the Monorail  to the Airport..  That is correct ?   Or is there a better way to go to  the Airport ?

Here is an explanation:

An easy way to get a list:

Enter Tokyo Haneda into google maps, click on Route, enter Nihon-Odori, change method of travel to trains... you will then get a list of the connections.

Thanks for the link.. Our cruise ends at Yokohama,  but then,   we go to Tokyo for four days,  before our flight  to Paris.  So,  I'm searching the best way  for  Yokohama Osanbashi /Tokyo Shinjuku,  and Shinjuku /Haneda International Airport..

well, then just do the same on google maps/route and enter the name of your hotel. You will get a detailed list.
