Reply To: Traveling with an Ostomy
Hi again @Lightdanger.
I was recently at Keio Plaza Hotel in Shinjuku to look at the accessible room. They do not have anything for ostomy in the room itself, but the accessible washroom on the ground floor was fully equipped and ostomy friendly.
I expect that this will be the pattern throughout Japan.
As you start to decide on hotels, let me know and I can ask the hotels directly if you like.
