Rental shower chaid
I am looking for an agence in Tokyo and Osaka to rent a shower chair in case the hotel can’t provid one. Do you have any recommendations ? Thank you in advance,

Most hotels should have a shower chair but it unfortunately isn’t guaranteed.
@tak can likely help in Osaka and maybe @ohayotravel in Tokyo can point you in the right direction

Onsens/private baths wheelchair
Are there any accessible onsens or private baths you can reccomend? Noticed I won’t be able to access a couple of the hotels. I have booked pool areas. Some of them are just saying no wheelchair is allowed in the pool area. Others are saying there are steps to the pool area. I was really planning on going to the pool or Jacuzzi every day.

Help with Wheelchair use and needs in Japan
Hello, I am traveling to Japan in March. I am a very limited walker who wears braces. I know at Disneyland I can rent an electric scooter. I am assuming in Disney see I can also rent one.

Accessibility in restaurants
I’m an ambulatory wheelchair user – I can stand and walk with canes but steps and stairs are hard for me. Any tips for finding wheelchair accessible restaurants (aside from the info on Accessible Japan) and if a restaurant is too small to navigate with a wheelchair, it is ok/safe to leave my wheelchair outside the restaurant while I just use…

We had great luck on the top floors of department stores … generally a variety of restaurants, easy elevator access, and you can eyeball which will fit a wheelchair (though leaving outside was an option..) Bonus is sometimes you get city views too :-).

Hi there! I am also partially ambulatory and had no issues either leaving my wheelchair (it’s foldable) near the restaurant entrance or even outside (like at a mall or food court).
