Reply To: Accessible Room Not Needed?
It shouldn’t be a problem in most hotels if your son is in a portable wheelchair to book a regular room, especially if he doesn’t need all the accessible items in the bathroom, however, some hotels have small rooms and bathrooms that may make it difficult to roll a wheelchair around or into or may have a small step from the entrance into the room, so I’d recommend the western hotel brands or other hotels with larger rooms. Some more traditional Japanese hotels with tatami mats may not allow wheelchairs. You can contact each hotel individually by email to see if there would be any issues with a wheelchair like stairs, etc.
