It's easy to get to by train (it's about 1/2 hour from Shinjuku), although it is about a 10-15 minute walk from the station through a nice neighborhood to the museum.

Depending on your interest in the work of Ghibli Studios, you can spend anywhere from an hour to 4 or 5 in the place. The detail is absolutely wonderful. There is a cafe on site which is plesant and an ice cream counter as well. I could spend a hundred million yen easily at the book store.

If there is an interest in Ghibli merchandise, there is a 8 story craft store at the Kichijoji station, which you pass through on the way to and from the museum. The bottom floor is all toys and there is a LOT of Ghibli stuff (which is where my Gigi backpack came from). The fabric floor is amazing and the top floor is all Capsule Machines. These two stops alone almost filled the day.
