We've found a flight and hotel plan we think could work for us. We would fly into the Narita International Airport and stay at the Hilton Tokyo Narita Airport Hotel. Apparently there's a free shuttle bus running between the two and, to make things easier, there's a free shuttle bus running from the hotel to the nearest major railway.

My question now is, first of all, am I right about the buses? Also, what would my train routes be to Midoriyama Studios and Muscle Park? They're both fairly far away now and I just want to make sure I know the routes.

Also, how many employees will be able to speak English? It's doesn't have to be fluent, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to need help in all the stations and hotel and stuff.
The hotel staff should be able to speak English, but I would not count on anyone on the show's staff to be able to speak English. In major train stations someone will be able to help you for sure. In smaller one, it's a crap shoot.

The hotel is fine, but you should know that it is close to the airport, and basically nothing else. That area is basically nothing, so if you want to site-see or enjoy anything outside of the hotel you should stay either in Tokyo or closer to Mt. Midoriyama. Narita is a painfully lonely and boring area.
