Varied Japan hotels for every type of traveller
Hotels in Japan are as varied as the destination itself and you'll encounter an eclectic mix of accommodation ideal for all trip types. Combining ultra-modern architecture with traditional Japanese hospitality, chain hotels in the major cities are a popular choice for tourists and business travellers alike. If you're seeking cultural immersion, consider staying at traditional hotels in Japan. Known as 'ryokans', these guesthouses offer you traditional experiences, including unwinding in your own private onsen (hot baths) and wearing a kimono.
Popular places to stay in Japan
When choosing your Japan hotel, it's a good idea to consider the best area to stay in each major city. The sprawling urban hubs of Tokyo and Osaka are home to various neighbourhoods, each with its own distinct vibe. Thanks to a vast and efficient rail network, trains are the best way to get around. Be sure to ride the Shinkansen bullet train between Tokyo and Kyoto.
- Tokyo: Famed for its neon lights, Tokyo offers some of the best hotels in Japan. Take your pick from ultra-modern high-rise lodgings that boast spectacular panoramic views of the city's skyline and, in the winter months, Mount Fuji's snow-capped peak. These types of Japan hotels are especially common in the entertainment districts of Shinjuku and Shibuya, home to the world-famous road crossing. The upscale Ginza district is known for its high-end shopping and Michelin-starred restaurants, making it an ideal place to stay for those seeking luxury hotels in Japan.
- Osaka: South of Tokyo, Osaka is the second biggest city in the Land of the Rising Sun and is a haven for foodies and shopaholics. The thriving streets of the Dotonbori district are dotted with restaurants and street food stands, offering everything from ramen to sushi. The neighbourhood is also home to some of the best boutique hotels in Japan. Nearby, browse the latest fashion and cutting-edge technology in the Shinsaibashi shopping arcade. The iconic Osaka Castle is one of Japan's most recognisable sites, while the rides at Universal Studios make for an exhilarating day out.
- Kyoto: As the nation's capital for over 1,000 years, Kyoto is a patchwork of historic treasures, with centuries-old palaces, temples, and shrines dotted throughout the city. If you fancy staying at traditional hotels in Japan, Kyoto is your best bet. You'll encounter a plethora of ryokans hidden away in the historic alleys of Higashiyama. Look out for mysterious geishas who wander the streets of the Gion district and be sure to visit the rural area of Arashiyama, renowned for its scenic bamboo forest.

Japan accommodation picks
