Since the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a surge in accommodation fees in Japan.
Due to the outbreak, many lodging facilities temporarily closed or reduced operating hours, leading to significant revenue losses and managerial difficulties. Consequently, upon reopening, some facilities raised their prices to recover a portion of their lost earnings.
Moreover, enhanced hygiene measures against COVID-19 involve additional costs. For instance, regular disinfection, providing staff with protective gear, and increasing the frequency of cleaning rooms and communal spaces have all raised operational costs, contributing to higher accommodation rates.
Additionally, travel restrictions led to increased domestic tourism demand. When restrictions eased, there was a surge in demand for local travel, overwhelming popular accommodations with bookings. This increase in demand led to price hikes in certain regions and sought-after facilities.
Finally, the pandemic's uncertainty has made many accommodations cautious about future economic risks. As a strategy for financial stability, raising prices has become a common approach.
In summary, the post-pandemic rise in Japanese accommodation fees can be attributed to a need for economic recovery, increased operational costs, a boost in domestic tourism, and responses to future uncertainties. Prices might stabilize as the COVID-19 situation improves and the economy recovers, but the outlook remains uncertain for now.
