If you’re a frequent Japan traveller, HoteLux is a great app to have because it allows you to book luxury Japanese ryokans – traditional Japanese inns that typically feature tatami-matted rooms and communal baths that provide an immersive experience into Japan’s age-old customs and hospitality. The app signed an exclusive partnership agreement with All Japan Ryokan Hotel Association Junior (AJRA), and Nishimuraya Honkan in Kinosaki Onsen, a ryokan with 160 years of history, will become one of the first ryokans available for bookings on the HoteLux app in the early part of the year.
