Firstly, there are traditional Japanese inns called "ryokans" in Japan, we include them in our tours alongside hotels. Compared to hotels, it may be challenging to determine the grade of each ryokan as their facilities and style of hospitality differ. Therefore they are roughly divided as below:
① Budget / Economy / Business Type
② Hotel above Middle class / Ryokan
Only accommodations of budget, economy, and/or business type including dormitory type.
Only accommodations of budget, economy and/or business type.
At least 20% of the total tour itinerary comprises accommodations in relatively upscale hotels in that city or area.
At least 50% of the total tour itinerary comprises accommodations in relatively upscale hotels in that city or area.
