When opening a new hotel, advance research is a must
When opening a new hotel, it is important to check the relevant laws and regulations in advance.
When entering Japan or the hospitality industry for the first time, it is especially important to carry out thorough research in advance.
For example, one of the challenges that foreign hoteliers face when they first enter the Japanese market is
This is a constraint unique to Japan's operations.
The local hotel was able to handle the situation,
Due to Japan's Inns and Hotels Act and local government ordinances, there are often cases where we are unable to respond.
There is no point in opening a hotel at such a high cost if things end up like this.
Actual case examples
☑ The sudden change in operations meant staff needed to be retrained.
☑ It was discovered that the structural and equipment requirements were not met, and additional construction work was quickly carried out.
A large amount of additional construction costs were incurred
☑ Some operations were suspended, and customers suddenly left the company.
☑ The company's name was made public through a special order, and the trust it had built up up until that point was instantly destroyed.

Be sure to properly understand and comply with the contents of the relevant laws and regulations when operating your hotel.

We will hold meetings with the business operator, construction company, operation company, etc. to discuss what needs to be done before obtaining licenses and permits.
