Heading to Japan? This week, we take a closer look at two new hotels in Minato City, Tokyo’s upscale business district. Both have grand views of the harbour, luxe amenities and exclusive sushi bars. But which one should you book? We asked our writers to sleep on it. Read our reviews of the city’s Fairmont property and the JW Marriott.

Also this week: It’s camping season, and reserving a campsite is getting more difficult. Do you have your spot yet? Tell us your tales of campground-booking woes and successes – and if you’re feeling generous, share your hacks.

And finally, we know that many of you are staying closer to home this summer. If you’re looking for a restaurant on your travels, we’ve highlighted 12 beloved neighbourhood eateries across the country, as recommended by Globe readers.
