i am trying to find a hotel from may 6-10 but everything is booked or a ridiculous price. eg. i stayed at the hojo earlier this month and my room was only $51/ night in may it is $124 with the AAA discount
Convention of some kind. Easter is April 16, so it isn't for Easter.

It is because of the 'Golden Week' which is the biggest vacation week in Japan.
May 3 & 5 are national holidays, so many people take 5/4 off.
And 6 & 7 are weekend.
I am sure there will be LOTS of Japanese people during that week.

There is a religous womens conference in town that weekend- est. 10,000 women in attendance. We are going that weekend- to the park- not the conference. LOL I was having a hard time too, and just thought the $60 hojo rates people talked about were really limited. I didnt realize it wasnt always this hard to find a good deal. LOL
There are 3 of us splitting the cost, so even at $100 a night its to to bad. But $60 sure would have been better!
