Japan's Luxury Hotels Woo The Wealthy

Fancy hotels are popping up everywhere in Japan, ranging from city to beach locations. This trend for high-end accommodations is continuing to grow and expand rapidly.

Before the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, people worried that there wouldn't be enough places for tourists to stay. It was estimated that 40 million tourists would visit Japan. To prepare, hotels started building new rooms. However, when the pandemic hit, nobody could come to visit. The new hotel rooms were left empty, and people who did travel to Japan had to stay in quarantine.

Luxury hotels are becoming more common in Japan, even with the challenges of unused Olympic hotels and COVID-19 travel restrictions becoming a distant memory. Some hotels charge more than ¥100,000 ($735) per night. International hotel chains are also entering the market. This isn't just a local business trend.
