Many of the hotels in Japan offer high cost/performance value hotel breakfast set or buffet at reasonable prices

. With huge variety of traditional Japanese family cuisine and Euro/American selections to accommodate

international guests, hotel breakfast is one of the best way to start your day while traveling in Japan.

Travelers often plan having sushi ramen , and tempura as part of their must-eat items on their trip itinerary. However, family style Japanese breakfast is also a good way to enrich food experiences in Japan. Budget hotel breakfast usually costs an additional $8 to $15 per person at the time of hotel reservation. I recommend booking the hotel room along with the breakfast option for better package discount.
