About Minpaku X
A Japanese company for the houses that welcome travellers.
Minpaku X is a Japanese company. For centuries, travellers in Japan have slept under someone's roof. We carry that custom into today. We choose homes, minshuku and small inns one by one and give each house its own seal. We bring travellers who travel from house to house, run everything behind each booking, and bring the people who keep these houses together.
What we're for
Keep alive Japan's custom of taking travellers into the home, in a way that pays the people who keep it.
What we do
- We choose houses one by one.
- We give each house its seal, and bring travellers who go from house to house.
- We run the work behind every stay, on one system.
- We bring the people who keep these houses together.
What we hold to
- The whole price, first.
- Reviews only from people who stayed.
- The order of houses is never for sale.
- A tub filled from the tap is never called an onsen.
Where we are
Izu and Atami are open. Sado is joining. The other places are samples (見本) for now.
Why minpaku
For centuries, travellers in Japan have slept under someone's roof. In 1804, an Osaka clerk gathered inns that anyone could stay at safely, and each hung the same sign at its door.
