Cost of taxi ride from Haneda Airport to Dai-Ichi Seafort?


My flight is scheduled to arrive at Haneda Airport at 11pm.
How much is the cost of taxi ride from Haneda Airport to Dai-Ichi Seafort Hotel (Tennozu Isle)?
---

Ans:

Expect to pay around 6,000 Yen for a taxi door-to-door.
The last Keikyu train departs the International Terminal at 0:02am. If you can catch that train to Shinagawa (400 Yen), then you are just a short taxi ride of around 1,000 Yen to the hotel.


Ans:


With late night fare, the cost will be around 5,000 yen+.
A taxi fare search site produced the result of 5,120 - 5,210 yen, (in 40 minutes).
If you are arriving before midnight, take the Tokyo Monorail to Tennozu Isle. I don't think you'll need to take the Keikyu train to Shinagawa then taxi.


Ans.
The last monorail that stops at Tennozu Isle departs at 11:55. I don't know how long it takes to go through immigration/customs at HND that late at night...

Could anyone share your experiences to Kinosaki onsens


Hello! Could anyone share your experiences to Kinosaki onsens?
I'm also wondering if they have a separate ladies and men's onsens, and if they have a package that includes lodging and tickets.

Ans:

Perhaps you are not familiar about how onsens in Japan works.
99.9% of onsens (ie that have proper washing facilities and bath pools as well as sauna and jacuzzi etc) are segregated (women and men have separate changing rooms and bath area). Only those "hidden" out in the mountains and rivers where natural water just springs up and where local grandpas and granmas bath daily can be mixed.

Practically all ryokans in an onsen town have a built in onsen; however, Kinosaki is a bit special as it is mostly known for its 6-7 "outer" baths and guests are recommended to do a tour of those baths with different features that are not directly attached to the accomodation. By staying at Kinosaki you gain access to the different bathhouses in the onsen town.

Train tickets are not included. However, I'm sure that JR West travel offices at major stations sells a deal tied up with onsen ryokans in Kinosaki as all-inclusive package (whether they are actually cheaper than booking through Rakuten/Jalan or provide satisfying meals is another question).
