Get late checkout if you need it

If your flight out of Tokyo departs in the evening, you may wish to explore getting a late check out from your hotel. This allows you to make the most of the day, do any lastminute packing and shower before departing for the airport.  Most accommodations are willing to arrange this for you if there is availability, but it’s worth noting that it comes at a cost, usually a varying percentage of a nightly tariff depending on how late you wish to stay. Let the front desk know a few days in advance and confirm with the hotel the night before that they will be able to accommodate your request.
