If you can spare a full day, check out Nikko or Hakone.
There is a day pass at the Shinjuku Station that covers all the transport needed for a day trip to Hakone.
As for the Onsen, you can check out the Yunessun . (http://www.yunessun.com/english/yunessun.html)

Odaiba is nice lah! Never trust those wiki pages which can be very biased. You go during sunset, and you can even see the siloutte of Mt Fuji from the train itself. Super nice!!!

Hakone is also a must-visit place. But dun think you got the time lah. You need at least 2-3 days there. Anything less, hmm... the itenary will be very hectic. Not ideal for holidaying.

at the moment i alo cannot recall the name of the resort i stayed at hakone
but i believe th standards of resorts here are similar just as good

for me tat time i was on free n easy, frends book the place from internet
and in that trip i covered tokyo an kyoto but must say hakone
turn out to be 1 of the best stays in japan, the 3 star resort sure can beat
any 5 star hotel in any part of the world

interestingly hakone seem to be a small town not like bigcity like
ppl there are very friendly and u get great service everywhere
and the volcanic springs are quite interesting
u even get to see a hello kitty hakone version one there
u know when u get there.

at least stay 1 day there dont rush thru

any recommended accomodation?
