We are looking for an overnight stay in or around Narita late August. Arrive JAL 17.05 and depart BA 10.55 the following morning. Don’t necessarily want to go into Tokyo.

Budget: would prefer mid-range but open to deals or suggestions of nice things to do

I have read the relevant comments but looking for anyone that has tips or knowledge

Cheers

We stay at the Hilton at NRT and rates are reasonable.Have stayed at the Nikko at JALs expense once and it was fine.
look at agoda.com.au-gives you the $A rate.
In Narita town itself is a Mercure which is always cheap-not stayed here but reasonably new.They do have an airport shuttle.
Best thing to do is just walk down the main street to the temple at the bottom of the hill-it is interesting.but you also pass some interesting small shops and restaurants-the specialty here is eel and often at the front there is usually a guy filleting said eels.

I stayed at the Mecure Narita two years ago and it was definitely cheap. Via the Accor 50% sale which happens frequently enough, we stayed for one night at 6,500 yen for a twin room, and then an additional 1,200 yen per person for a decent buffet breakfast. The airport shuttle was great, we arrived around 8:30pm-ish and you can email ahead to find out the timetable. Our room was a bit tired looking, perhaps we stayed in the older building which was separate to where the reception area is. My only dislike was that the hallway had a strong cigarette smell lingering but thankfully not inside the room (we specifically requested a non-smoking room). It was otherwise a pleasant stay.

Location was great- only a short walk down the main street to Naritasan Temple which I'd highly recommend if you can squeeze in before your flight the next day. It's definitely worth a visit and was a highlight to our Japan trip. There's no admission fee to the temple complex and it's opened all hours - see Narita Travel: Naritasan Temple
 
Thanks for the options, "now the web batman and book some beds"

I have stayed at both the Nikko and the old Holiday Inn (not sure what it is called now).
The Nikko has the usual small rooms found in many Japanese hotels. The HI's rooms were very dated but a decent size.

If you stay at one of the airport hotels make sure it has a free shuttle to take you to Narita town. As others have said it is well worth a visit
