10+ deciding factors how to choose a good hotel in Japan

The Land of the Rising Sun - Japan is the focus of oriental sophistication, centuries-old traditions and modern achievements. Picturesque pagodas and ancient temples, stretching against the backdrop of cherry blossoms, are side by side with skyscrapers cutting through the air, and unique architectural complexes - with business centers and major amusement parks.

The sights of Japan are seven natural and man-made beauties. One vacation is hardly enough to explore all the iconic places of this country. A visit to Japan's castles alone will take several days. Add to this the numerous museums, luxurious palace gardens, exhibition centers and theaters - and a rich excursion program is ready. In the list of the main tourist locations in the country:

  • Tokyo Imperial Palace;
  • Nijo Castles in Kyoto and Matsumoto;
  • Egret Castle in Kobe;
  • Mount Fuji;
  • Kabuki-za theater;
  • Nagoya Castle;
  • Mount Arashiyama;
  • Tokyo Disneyland;
  • Aokigahara National Park;
  • Hiroshima Peace Memorial;
  • Horyuji Monastery and Enryaku-ji Monastery, etc.

The traditions of Japan deserve special attention. In this modern country, even today you can visit a dinner with a geisha, and the legendary sakura blossom in March-April was turned by the Japanese into a grandiose event, accompanied by festivities and picnics.

Perhaps the main disadvantage of a vacation in Japan is the rather high prices for budget travelers. There is no concept of low season here, so the cost of living is kept at the same level all year round. There are hotels of various levels in the country, and all of them - from modest 2 stars to luxurious "five stars" - offer a high level of service. The most budget accommodation option is a capsule hotel - an analogue of European hostels. A night here will cost about $ 50. You will have to pay the most for a room in a 5-star hotel - prices here start at $ 300 per night.

The easiest way to book a hotel at the best price is to use specialized aggregators that allow you to compare hotel prices. A great example is the online service Hotelhunter. An extensive database of hotels of different levels, convenient and simple navigation - with such an assistant, choosing accommodation will take a few minutes.

Is the price indicated for one person or for the whole room?

The accommodation cost is indicated for the room as a whole, taking into account the number of people that was indicated during the search. For example, if during the search 3 people were indicated, then its results will display the cost of the whole triple room, if 1 person was indicated, then in the results you will see the price of a single room. Please note that search results do not include additional services (SPA treatments, extra bed, pet, etc.). To order any additional service, it is better to personally contact the hotel and clarify its availability and cost.

Most common hotel room categories

Triple (TRPL) - a room with three fixed beds (3 single beds or 1 double + 1 single bed). DBL + EXB - a double room with one double bed and a third extra bed. Duplex is a two-story room.

Do I need a deposit upon check-in?

The deposit in the hotels in Japan is rarely charged. This is the prerogative of the apartments, where, upon check-in, the amount is frozen on the guest's bank card in case of compensation for damaged property or if 100% payment has not been made for the room.

How to book a hotel in Japan with Hotelhunter?

In the window that opens, fill in the search parameters: country, city, dates and other wishes. The Hotelhunter service will give you relevant offers with an indication of the cost, from which you will choose what suits you. Hotelhunter will redirect you to the booking site that gives the offer you are interested in Japan: Booking, Agoda, Expedia, etc. To complete your booking follow the further instructions on the website.

What documents are required upon check-in?

Arriving at the hotel, the guest must show the administrator a passport, a document confirming the booking and a bank card.

Booking cancellation policy

In most cases, you can cancel your booking for free up to 24 hours before check-in time. In addition, there are special offers that allow you to cancel your booking one hour before the check-in time. Cancellation charges may apply if rooms are booked at a deep discount. Sometimes you can meet completely non-refundable rates. During the high season in Japan, rooms are being sold out faster and hotels typically tighten up booking conditions to reduce cancellations. For this reason, we advise you to read the cancellation policy carefully before proceeding with your reservation during the high season. All the information you need is in the "Cancellation Policy" section.

Can the guest choose the floor on their own?

No, the booking systems do not have an option to select the floor in the hotel. The floor can be indicated in the wishes or notes to the request or by contacting the hotel directly and specifying the possibility of obtaining a room on the desired floor. If you are traveling out of season, when the demand for rooms is moderate, hotels meet the wishes of customers.

How to save money on a hotel?

Room rates vary by season, but often some hotels in Japan offer booking discounts in April 2024. To get acquainted with special offers, use the search on our website, hotels offering a discount will have a special mark in the results.

What is included in the booking price?

The accommodation price includes all services listed on the booking website. You need to click on the name of the room to view their list. In many hotels breakfast, basic taxes, additional tourist taxes are included in the price. All this can be seen by clicking on the "Terms" button, and this information is also duplicated in the booking confirmation, which is sent to your e-mail after placing an order.

What is a non-refundable rate?

A non-refundable rate is a rate in which a room is booked at the lowest price, but a prepayment is required, which is not refundable in case of cancellation.

What is the difference between a Luxe room and a Suite?

The size of the room is the main difference, the suite will be larger. The layout and decoration will also be different for the suite and for the suite. On our website you can find a detailed description and photos of all categories of rooms when choosing an accommodation option.

How long does the hotel wait for the guest after checkout time?

It all depends on the hotel you have chosen. Each hotel has its own conditions of check-in, therefore, before making a payment, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with them in detail. Most hotels will wait for you until 00:00 on the day of arrival, if you have not indicated the exact time of arrival when booking.

Late check out and early check in

This is possible if the hotel is not 100% full. Conditions should be checked with the hotel itself. This service is often paid.
