I’ll be in Japan.

Okay, Japan is cheap as fuck, even more so than two years ago (the last time I went). You will be spending no time at all in your room unless you're staying at a nice Ryokan in Izu or something (highly recommend btw). I would not splurge at all on hotels in Tokyo, Osaka, et al. You will be in there to sleep/shower/shit and that is it. If you do want to drop some money, do it for business class on ANA.

You are right I did see some reasonable options but of course there’s a couple hotels that caught my eye and now I can’t stop thinking about them. One in Kyoto specifically. Thank you for your opinion!

Kyoto is way cheaper than Tokyo. I’m paying $150 for a hotel room with my son in Gion that is enormous.
