Discover a new way to stay in West Japan—find and secure mid- to long-term accommodation online before you arrive.
Apartment Japan is a rental platform designed for international visitors, enabling users to search for mid- to long-term rental properties in Japan and complete the entire process—from application to contract and payment—fully online. With a user experience similar to booking a hotel, it offers a seamless way to secure mid- to long-term rentals for stays of 30 days or longer, including months or even years.
Users can arrange their accommodation before arriving in Japan, ensuring a smooth start to their stay. Even without a Japanese bank account, a local guarantor, or a Japanese mobile phone number, rent can be paid by credit card issued in their home country, making long-term stays more accessible for overseas visitors.
By making it easier to secure housing, Apartment Japan opens up new possibilities beyond short-term travel. Instead of simply visiting destinations, users can stay for weeks or months and experience Japan like locals do—living in one area while exploring surrounding regions through day trips. This approach allows travelers to discover the deeper appeal of West Japan at their own pace.
To support this initiative, Apartment Japan has launched a dedicated “West Golden Route” page, featuring a curated selection of properties available for mid- to long-term stays across the region. This special page helps international visitors easily find a place to live while discovering the unique attractions of West Japan.
