(1) My Top Hotel and Ryokan Picks
Discover My Secret Hotel Picks
-
KyotoThe Prince Kyoto Takaragaike
-
NaraJW Marriott Hotel Nara
・High-Quality Rooms: The rooms are exceptionally well-appointed, offering a luxurious stay.
・On-Site Amenities: Enjoy the hotel’s pool and fitness club, perfect for relaxation and staying active.
・Outstanding Dining: The food is absolutely delicious, providing a top-notch culinary experience.
・Marriott Member Perks: As a Marriott member, you can enjoy benefits like late check-out and complimentary access to the lounge.

-
OsakaThe Ritz-Carlton, Osaka
・Exceptional Hospitality: The staff’s level of service and hospitality is absolutely outstanding.
・Delicious Dining: The food at the hotel’s restaurants is truly exquisite.
・Luxurious Decor: Every piece of decor in the hotel is high-end and absolutely stunning.
・Two Minor Drawbacks: While you may not get a “Japanese” experience, the luxurious international atmosphere makes up for it. The rates are a bit high, but the exceptional service and stay make it worth every penny. -
MieResort Kumano Club
・Relax All Day: Perfect for spending a full day at the hotel, enjoying its serene atmosphere.
・All-Inclusive Experience: Indulge in meals from breakfast to dinner, plus evening drinks, all included.
・Stunning Natural Surroundings: Experience the breathtaking beauty of the World Heritage-listed Kii Mountain Range.
・Downsides: The property is large, so be prepared for a bit of a walk to the dining areas and hot springs (though shuttle buses are available, and it can be a delightful stroll). Another drawback is the lack of nearby attractions, but I personally find that part of its charm.
(2) Essential Items to Buy Before Your Trip to Japan
SIM Card -Stay Connected in Japan
A SIM card is essential for seamless internet access in Japan. A SIM card using the NTT DoCoMo network provides reliable coverage across the country, ensuring you stay connected no matter where you are.
Recommended Point:
With NTT DoCoMo’s stable network, you can enjoy reliable internet access even in popular tourist destinations.
Power Adapter – Stay Charged in Japan
Japan uses Type A electrical outlets with a voltage of 100V. If you’re traveling from abroad, you’ll need a power adapter to charge your devices using Japanese outlets.
Recommended Point:
With this adapter, you can easily charge your smartphone, camera, and other devices without any hassle, ensuring you stay powered up throughout your trip.
Portable Charger– Stay Powered Up on the Go
Exploring Japan’s many attractions can quickly drain your smartphone battery. A high-capacity portable charger ensures that you’re always ready to capture memories, navigate, and stay connected.
