Bonjour Hugo.
I can understand your question but cannot reply back in French. Hopefully you can just translate my response.
I also have a power wheelchair but it is compact and foldable. I can also stand up and walk. If you’re ambulatory, the Mimaru hotel chain is good. They are responsive thru email and provide room measurements on their…

Also want to add that the term they use for wheelchair accessible is “universal design” or “barrier-free”

Leaving a scooter outside a restaurant or shop in Japan.
Hi Everyone,
my name is Oliver and I have cerebral palsy.
So I’m going to Japan in late November to early December for about two weeks and am super excited. I will most likely bring a scooter called DashMoto 3. I can walk, but I can’t do it for long periods of time and I will be going with a group of friends as well.
My main concern is if I go to…

Good question. Following as I’d like to know if it is okay to secure the scooter with a bike lock at front too. I suspect it will depend on space in front of the restaurant etc. keen to know what others have experienced

Would love to know as well. I posted a similar question in a FB group since I’m an ambulatory wheelchair user. Folks said it is ok and safe to leave it outside (I think the challenge would be if the sidewalk is narrow)

Removing shoes
Hi, just looking for any tips for removing shoes for an above-knee amputee with a prosthetic leg. Going without shoes can be slippery, any suggestions for options? Thanks so much.

I think I would have designated shoes for inside. Designated slippers are worn inside possibility you could have slippers that have a good sole if you can find some that provide the support you need.

Find a good slipper that you can carry with you. There are restaurants / chain izakayas / hotels that supply slippers, but they tend to be on the small side. Bringing our own slipper may be admired for its ingenuity, but that would be only reaction. Just make sure your inside never touches the outside.

Travelling around Hokkaido
Any recommendation for wheelchair accessible transport for airport to hotel pickup, point to point or day trips?

While we travelled in Hokkaido, we were able to take regular taxis from the airport – my wheel chair is foldable.
We have hired @ohayotravel for other parts of Japan so I am tagging them here in case they can assist.
Good luck and happy travels!1- View 3 replies

I’m sure there are many accessible taxis available in Hokkaido, but I’m not sure of any specific period. However I know that two of the companies listed here, TokudAw and Welhire, can help arrange taxis in that area as well so you might want to try giving them an… Read more
