Sailor Moon takes place in Minato-ku, like Ranma takes place in
Nerima-ku. "Azabu" means "district" and "Juuban" means "tenth" -- the
tenth district of Minato-ku. This area of Minato-ku (in the real world)

Azabu-Juuban.

         Azabu City Hotel
         2-12-3 Azabu-Juuban
         Tokyo, Minato-ku
         Tel: 34 53-43 11

There is a *reason* I have several bilingual maps and atlases of Tokyo ...
