Why operators choose us.

Six operational advantages that separate us from local cleaning shops and franchise networks.

We measure success by zero key-release delays and zero cleanliness escalations.

Supervisors fluent in Japanese and English. Cleaners with conversational English.

Recurring quality

Cleaner self-check, then supervisor inspection, with a 98% pass threshold.

Emergency cover

A 24/7 emergency desk with a bilingual manager on duty, plus a 10–15% on-call relief pool for hotels.

Honest reporting

Timestamped photos, shift reports and a client portal for hotels and hosts.

B2B pricing

Per-room or per-turnover rates, monthly retainers for buildings and offices, and volume rebates.

The Real Cost Comparison

Hiring in-house vs. partnering with us.

Client Voices

What operators say

Anonymized references from active clients across hotels, minpaku, and commercial properties.

"We were burning out our front-desk staff doing rooms. Global Access took over in two weeks and never missed a turnover. Our TripAdvisor cleanliness score is up 0.4 points."

GM
General Manager
Boutique hotel · Central Tokyo

"I manage 23 Airbnb units. The photo reports after every clean changed everything — I can prove damage claims, and my reviews reflect the reliability."

MH
Portfolio Host
23 minpaku units · Shinjuku & Shibuya

"Our previous vendor kept rotating staff and never got to know the building. Global Access assigned a fixed crew and the residents immediately noticed the consistency."

Common Questions

Frequently asked

Straight answers to the questions we hear most from hoteliers, hosts, and property managers.

Do your cleaners speak English?

You talk to our team in English or Japanese for booking, questions and feedback. Supervisors are fully bilingual. Field staff have conversational English for hotel and minpaku contexts.

How fast can you deploy cleaning staff?

For recurring contracts, onboarding typically takes 1-2 weeks including training. For emergency cover, we can dispatch within 24-48 hours in the Tokyo metropolitan area.

Do I need to be home during the clean?

No. We agree on access with you first — key handover, lockbox, reception, or smart lock. Hotel and minpaku properties are always cleaned unattended with photo reporting.

Do I need a long-term contract?

No. One-time cleans need no contract. Hotels typically start with a 60-90 day trial. Minpaku recurring work is month-to-month. Building and office contracts run on annual agreements with volume rebates.

Is the estimate final?

It is an estimate. We confirm the final price in writing before the clean begins — always in yen, tax included, no hidden fees.

Are your staff insured?

Yes. Global Access carries comprehensive corporate liability insurance covering our staff and your property during all cleaning operations.

Which areas of Japan do you cover?

We are based in Tokyo and deploy across Kanagawa, Saitama, and Chiba with full-time teams. Through vetted partner networks, we also coordinate cleaning across Osaka, Kyoto, Nagoya, Fukuoka, and Sapporo.

What we need for an accurate quote

  • Address and building access (key, lock box, reception)
  • Size of the space: floors, rooms or floor area
  • Current condition and any problem areas
  • How often you need us: one time or a regular schedule
  • Preferred days and hours, including quiet hours or elevator rules
  • Any special requests, for example eco products or allergy concerns

Standards and limits

  • We clean to the scope we agree with you in advance. Extra areas can be added on request.
  • Repairs, pest control, hazardous waste and work that needs a special licence are outside our standard scope. Tell us early and we will say whether we can help or suggest another route.
  • For offices, hotels and rental properties, we agree where staff or guests keep valuables and which rooms are off limits.
  • Final price is confirmed in writing before we begin.
