The house that rock built in the land of the rising sun! A sanctuary of creativity and good vibes away from the madness. Hanging with Glenn at Mendips is like revisiting everything that inspired you to play music in the first place. A hidden gem in Japan, reserved for the bands who travel to the far east. One of the best experiences of our touring career!

"After staying at different hotels in other cities, we couldn't wait to get back to Mendips. The spaciousness, comfort and rock and roll vibes can't be beat!"

Mendips is the best rock & roll guest house in Japan, hands down. Very clean, safe, spacious, and comfortable. Highly recommended to any traveling musicians or music lovers coming through Tokyo region. Glenn is not only a great host but instantly like a long lost friend that you’ve known for years. Plus… he’s got great records! 🙂

"We stayed two nights and had a great time, very clean and tidy place, 24 hr supermarket just across the road and full use of the house and superb facilities. Highly recommended."

"From the moment we entered Mendips, we felt at home. It really exceeded our expectations beyond words and made our trip to Japan even more special and memorable. 100 percent would recommend to everyone...but I won't...as I want it to be available for us when we come back!"

“Genuinely a home from home in the Tokyo suburbs, a friendly, helpful owner who is very familiar with all things Japanese and is more than happy to advise and help you plan! My rock n roll Hilton!”

"Mendips is a sanctuary from the exhaustive bustle of Tokyo touring. Whether setting up basecamp or in need of some space and time to rest, this is one of the best artist friendly houses in the country; With out question."

“Mendips has become my second home when I visit Tokyo Japan. Placed in a beautiful and relaxed area, offers the busy musician a little respite with all the qualities of a retreat. I cannot recommend Mendips highly enough!!"
