Frequently Asked Questions about short term rentals in Japan

  • What attractions should you visit during a week-long stay?

    A week is a great starting point! Focus on one region. Tokyo offers iconic sights like the Sensō-ji Temple, the Meiji Jingu Shrine, and the vibrant Shibuya crossing. Alternatively, explore Kyoto's ancient temples like Kiyomizu-dera and Fushimi Inari-taisha, alongside its beautiful Gion district. Consider adding a day trip to Nara to see the friendly wild deer in Nara Park.
  • What are the best short term rentals in Japan?

    Among the short term rentals in Japan, One Room Guest House Bivot 3, Marubeni Hongawa Building 402 602 801 and Longvacation Okinawa 206 are the most popular ones.

  • What attractions should you visit when you spend a month in Japan?

    A month allows for a deeper dive! Start with Tokyo and Kyoto, as mentioned. Then, branch out. Consider exploring the Japanese Alps for hiking and stunning scenery, or head north to Hokkaido for its unique culture and natural beauty, including national parks like Daisetsuzan National Park. You could also visit Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park and Museum, a poignant and important site.
  • What are the best short term rentals with a pool in Japan?

    Hotel Kanso King / Kyoto Kyōto, Asakusa Sky Stay - Vacation Stay 96210 and Churaumi Terrace are the best short term rentals with a pool in Japan.

  • What currency is used, and how easy is it to find ATMs?

    The Japanese yen (JPY) is the currency. ATMs are plentiful, especially in cities. Seven Bank ATMs are widely accessible and often accept foreign cards. However, it's always a good idea to have some cash on hand, particularly in smaller towns or rural areas.
  • What are the best short term rentals with a jacuzzi in Japan?

  • What are the most charming areas to spend a weekend in Japan?

    Kamakura, with its iconic Great Buddha statue at Kotoku-in Temple and Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, offers a serene escape. Hakone, nestled in the mountains, boasts stunning views of Mount Fuji and offers opportunities for onsen (hot springs) experiences. Kanazawa, known for its well-preserved samurai district and Kenrokuen Garden, is another excellent choice.
  • What are the best short term rentals for families and kids in Japan?

  • Which areas are best for an extended stay?

    Kyoto is ideal for those who appreciate traditional culture and history. For a more modern and cosmopolitan experience, Tokyo is unmatched. If you enjoy nature and outdoor activities, consider Hokkaido or the Japanese Alps. Each region offers a unique lifestyle and environment for a longer stay.
  • Is Japan safe for solo travelers, including women?

    Yes, Japan is generally considered very safe for solo travelers, including women. However, standard precautions for solo travel should still be taken, such as being aware of your surroundings and avoiding walking alone in poorly lit areas at night.
  • Which region is most popular for its pleasant weather?

    It depends on the season and your preferences. The Kansai region (Kyoto, Osaka, Nara) generally has a mild climate. However, spring and autumn are the most popular seasons nationwide for their pleasant temperatures.
  • What do you do if you lose your passport or documents?

    Immediately report the loss to the nearest police station (Koban). They will issue a report, which you'll need to obtain a replacement passport from your embassy or consulate. Keep copies of your passport and other important documents separate from the originals.
  • What seasonal celebrations make Japan special?

    Spring features Hanami (cherry blossom viewing), a nationwide event. Summer brings numerous festivals, including the Gion Matsuri in Kyoto. Autumn showcases the beautiful koyo (autumn leaves), and winter offers various New Year's celebrations, including the Shōgatsu festivities.
