Where can I stay without a hotel in Japan?

It's not worthwhile for you to live in someone else's house, and you can't live if you want.

Japan Travel Accommodation Recommendation

Accommodation facilities

In Japan, there are many accommodation facilities, both western and Japanese. Accommodation facilities vary according to type, style and price. You can choose the western-style meals you are used to, or you can choose the traditional Japanese economy hotel and enjoy its comfortable and thoughtful service. Sometimes you can find a less famous residence, where you can not only live in a clean and comfortable room, but also save money.

western restaurant

There are many western-style hotels in every city in Japan, and there are famous hotel chains in every big city. In these hotels, the service staff speak English. Especially in the tourist season, it is best to make a reservation early.

The 360 members of Japan Hotel Association (JHA) provide high-standard services and facilities. These hotels generally have western-style restaurants, and usually there are high-end Japanese restaurants.

Just like western-style hotels in any country, most of these hotels are pleasant, providing heating, TV, air conditioning and swimming pool, as well as translators, shopping and fitness centers.

In Tokyo, some luxury hotels provide unique "executive salons" for international business travelers. For advanced travelers, these salons provide free secretarial services, including operating computers and fax transmission equipment.

For example, in Tokyo, a single room with bath in a first-class hotel costs 15000 to 30000 yen, and a double room with bath costs 25000 to 45000 yen. 5% consumption tax is required for each person's accommodation fee per night. First-class luxury hotels charge about 10% service charge.

Private hotel (homestay)

Another way to save money when traveling in Japan is to stay in a "private hotel", which is also a good opportunity to learn more about daily life. The private hotel equivalent to room accommodation is operated by the residents, and the lent room is the owner's own room. Private hotels with appropriate fees can often be found in tourist attractions and resorts.

Because of its "family industry" characteristics, the service of private hotels is simpler than that of professional hotels. For example, in the morning, passengers need to fold their bedding and put it in the closet like family members. Private hotels do not provide towels and bathrobes supplied by hotels or Japanese hotels.

Private hotels generally charge 6500 yen, including two meals with ordinary family flavor.

Apartment accommodation can usually be found in famous sports areas, such as ski resorts and mountainous areas.

Its open concept and unrestrained management attitude usually cater to everyone who adapts to this life requirement. Its facilities are between family-style private hotels and hotels that can better meet passengers.

The average cost per night does not include the meal fee of 8,000 yen, but includes the meal fee of 10000 yen.

Other accommodation

Breaking the rules are Buddhist temples, some of which can receive overnight visitors. Some monasteries allow tourists to participate in meditation, while others only provide rooms for tourists.

There are 360 youth hostels in Japan, which provide clean and simple accommodation at low prices. Some are open to the outside world, while others only provide services for members of Japan Youth Hostel or International Youth Hostel Federation. You can join the International Youth Hostel Federation in your country or through the national headquarters in Tokyo.

Although its name has the word youth, there is no age limit for passengers living in youth hostels. Compared with other forms of accommodation facilities, there are more regulations. Youth hostels generally charge about 2,800 to 3,000 yen per person, and there is no meal.
