DESCRIPTION
We have beautiful Japanese inn, Ryokan. You'll sleep in a futon with tatami-matted floor, wear traditional yukata, and spend at a homely atmosphere. You'll never have such experience at hotels. So, you'll truly have the Japanese experience at ryokan. However, the number of ryokans introduced to foreign tourists is much less than the actual needs. There are 330 ryokans in total in Tokyo. However, only 15 are listed on booking sites. In our project, we're trying to provide lots of ryokan information by collaborating with local ryokans in Tokyo. We'll help solving their language problems, making English documents, and promoting their ryokans. At the same time, ryokan has decreased 30% in the last 10 years. Ryokan is traditional and the best place to experience the real Japanese culture. If we don't act, we'll lose such beautiful ryokans. I started this project to help ryokan owners do their business and foreign tourists find their best ryokans. Please check our website and we'll be glad if you can share with your friends. http://www.ryokan-tokyo.com

Top 3 foreign tourists’ interest in Japan
[1] Visit cultural and historical places.
[2] Stay at traditional accommodation.
[3] Eat Japanese food.
Foreigners visiting Japan have been increased. It’s estimated to reach 10 million in 2013 for the first time, and it’ll reach 25 million by 2020. In addition, 60% of all visitors stay in Tokyo at least for 1 night.
There are in total 330 ryokans in Tokyo.
However, only 15 ryokans are listed on booking site.
So, your choice is very limited. It’s tough to find your best ryokan from only 15 choices. What’s prioritized the most is different by each person.
Your Priority -‐ Price? -‐ Location? -‐ Facilities? -‐ Atmosphere?
It means only 5% of all ryokans are introduced to foreign visitors. Where is the rest of 95% of all ryokans in Tokyo?
We’ll provide much information of ryokans in Tokyo!!

The number of ryokan has been decreasing.
Ryokan
Hotel
Number of accommodation in Japan
30% of ryokans have lost the last 10 years.
Ryokan used to be the most popular accommodation for domestic travelers. In 1980s, over 80% of rooms were reserved in average.
However, most Japanese people now prefer hotels rather than ryokans. Only about 30% of rooms are reserved currently.
