Hotel Hopping in Japan! Visit 30 Cities in 30 Days with this Great New Hotel Deal!

Date published: 20 June 2021

Cabin fever got you down? Sick of the long commute to work? Just need a change of scenery? If you're in Japan, APA Hotels has the answer!

This great new plan from APA Hotels allows you to see the sights in multiple cities across the country - without the hassle of booking a new hotel at each stop.

APA Hotel Group is the largest hotel chain in Japan, with 665 hotels in Japan, 78 of which are in Tokyo alone. Said to be one of Japan's most affordable hotel chains, APA Hotels provide all the benefits of a luxury hotel - clean, comfy, and conveniently located - without the luxury price!

Founded on May 10, 1971, APA Hotel Group is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a series of promotional campaigns as an expression of appreciation for its customers. As part of the celebration, APA Hotels are offering a limited-time-only one-month travel plan called the Monthly Run.

What is APA Hotel's Monthly Run Plan?

The Monthly Run is APA's hotel-hopping plan that lets you book an entire 30-day trip for only 99,000 yen (about 957USD, tax included). That comes out to roughly 3300 yen (32USD) per night - cheaper than B&Bs and even cheaper than rent! And the best part is, you don't need to stay in the same hotel. In fact, you don't even have to stay in the same city!

99 Problems but Accommodation Ain't One

The entire travel industry is struggling due to the effects of the pandemic. International travel is still restricted in many places, and even local travel comes with many risks and restrictions. This plan is the perfect answer, offering the excitement of a trip around the world without the risk or the hassle.

If you want to see the sights, don't confine yourself to one city or prefecture! With APA's Monthly Run, you can choose from over 100 different APA Hotels in Japan over the course of 30 days. And you can choose a different location each night! In other words, you could see 30 cities in 30 days if you wanted to!

You can travel to 30 cities in 30 days for a solo sightseeing tour. You can use it to avoid the long commute to work for a month, or to book a business trip. If you're planning to move to a new city, you can use it to experience living there for a month without committing to a lease (the total cost is even cheaper than the average rent in most major cities!) Or, if you just need a change of scenery after an extended quarantine, you can book a getaway for a month!

What's Included

You'll have all the necessary conveniences of a regular hotel in your own, single-occupancy room. You'll even receive a promotional APA Curry Set when you check-in on your first night!
