Explore 4-Star Hotels in Sapporo

I don't understand why this hotel was prioritized in my search results. It's essentially a budget hotel. I chose it because I saw great reviews online, saying it was super close to the station – right across the street – and had a generous breakfast. However, when I actually got there, I found it was still a good fifteen-minute walk from the JR station. So, if location is your priority, I'd recommend other hotels right next to or even inside the JR station, like the Nikko. If you want a better quality stay, you could always take a taxi to other mid-to-high-end chain hotels in the city center; at least then you're guaranteed quality. The breakfast was just okay, nothing special. The 'exquisite Japanese breakfast with seafood' only consisted of a tiny plate each of sashimi and shrimp. I found the rest of the food to be pretty average. Don't be fooled by the luxurious seafood rice bowls in the promotional photos... As for the room, I arrived at the hotel close to 7 PM. When I entered my room, I found the window faced an outdoor staircase, which was dark and quite unsettling. The key thing is that the room photos during booking didn't show this kind of layout for this room type, so I asked to switch. The hotel, however, said it would cost extra. I thought about checking out, but it wasn't an option. So, I just paid the extra and endured two nights. It was pretty frustrating, to say the least. Service and Facilities: Don't expect much from a budget hotel's service; it's just adequate. You get two 330ml bottles of water daily, no more. The room was very damp. Even though I kept the bathroom dehumidifier running 24/7, the bedding was still damp and uncomfortable to sleep on. After all the previous issues and discussions, I couldn't be bothered to 'battle' over the bedding now. The TV has screen mirroring, but no cable TV. If you want to watch something, you have to log into your own accounts on TikTok or other apps, which is quite inconvenient for someone used to having the TV on for international news. So, overall, I definitely do not recommend this hotel.

The location is great, right next to Tanukikoji, and it's just a few minutes' walk to Don Quijote. Facilities: There's a hot spring, but I didn't get a chance to use it. There's also a self-service laundry, but it only accepts coins, no electronic payments. Cleanliness: It was very clean and tidy; I had a comfortable stay. Service: We arrived at the hotel at 2 PM and were told we could store our luggage first, but check-in wasn't until after 3 PM. We dropped off our bags and went out to explore. We came back after dinner to pick up our room key.

Pros: Location: 1. Convenient transportation: After arriving at New Chitose Airport, take the JR train. Exit Sapporo South Gate on the first floor to the plaza, cross the street, and turn right to reach the hotel. You can also take the underground shopping street APIA, but you'll need to climb about ten steps, and I couldn't find an accessible elevator. If you have luggage, it's easier to walk above ground. If you're taking a bus, there's a stop about 200 meters away. When we arrived, the adjacent block was under construction, making the ground uneven and inconvenient for pushing luggage, but it should be fine under normal circumstances. However, the bus to the airport stops directly downstairs from the hotel, which is very convenient. Be mindful of the schedule; over two days, I saw many people lining up, and it seemed unlikely that everyone would make their intended bus. You'll likely need to queue for an extra round. 2. Convenient for shopping and dining: Daimaru is directly opposite the hotel, Stella is next to Daimaru, and Tokyu is diagonally opposite Stella – all visible from the South Gate Plaza. The entrance to the underground shopping street APIA is right at the hotel's doorstep (stairs). I recommend taking the elevator to B1 for direct access to APIA; it's extremely convenient on rainy days. The underground street connects directly to all nearby shopping malls and the JR station. The underground street itself has plenty of food and shops. For food, just follow the local office workers in line for authentic local flavors (be warned, the local ramen shops are incredibly salty, choose carefully). There are also many restaurants nearby, but not many drugstores. The two or three scattered stores are small, suitable for replenishment but not for a big haul. 3. Abundant and surprising breakfast: We entered and exited Sapporo, and compared to other places, this hotel's buffet breakfast had a good variety and quality. The seafood options for the DIY seafood rice bowl were also plentiful and promptly refilled. Friends who enjoy a rich breakfast should not be disappointed. In addition to the above obvious advantages, here are a few points about the hotel to consider when making your choice: 1. The front desk is on the 7th floor, accessible by two direct elevators that require card access. During peak hours, you might have to wait, and the speed and size of the elevators are average. 2. During check-in, the front desk insisted that everyone use the self-service machines. However, the system is cumbersome and prone to bugs. When we checked in, there were three machines and four groups of guests, including locals, and everyone eventually needed human assistance. The front desk staff member started with a smile, but by the end, I felt it was commendable she maintained her politeness. I don't know what the owner is thinking; there are plenty of front desk staff, so why add to everyone's burden? 3. The room size is normally small. The hallway and lobby are relatively new, while the rooms are slightly older but acceptably clean. 4. The price is slightly higher than similar hotels in the surrounding area (if you consider the convenience of transportation and shopping, this price difference is acceptable).

Facilities: Good Cleanliness: Good Environment: Good Service: Good I stayed at this hotel a few days ago. The location is quite convenient, and it's easy to take a walk to Hokkaido University from here. There are also convenience stores nearby to buy milk, drinks, rice balls, and sandwiches, which is very handy. The hotel breakfast wasn't really to our taste, though.

I had a great stay at this hotel. The staff were exceptionally friendly and nice, and they were even kind enough to offer me a late check-out at 1:00 PM, which I really appreciated. The room was spacious, the public bath was a great feature, and the self-service luggage storage was very convenient. the hotel is a bit of a walk from the metro, it is near a bus stop for the airport limousine. The breakfast variety was a bit more limited compared to other hotels I have visited. Overall, the hospitality made for a wonderful experience.

The room was new and spacious; we could easily open two large suitcases. The location was very convenient. I look forward to staying here again. There's a Family Mart downstairs, so you don't have to worry about getting hungry at night, and a drugstore right across the street. The breakfast was incredibly rich and varied.

We stayed for 2 nights, and had a pleasant stay. The hotel is 3 mins walk to Susukino and 5 mins walk to 狸小路 with many convenient stores and restaurants around. The front desk staff helped us to check in with the check in machine and the process was fast. We like the beds and room size, and the free flow of Haskap juice throughout afternoon and evening. The drawbacks are the front desk staff have limited English and didn’t understand our request to have a cleanup in our room as we were sleeping late and missed morning cleanup. The nearest airport shuttle bus stop across from hotel abest Sapporo is 4 blocks away and we have to take a taxi around 950yen with luggages to get there in the slushy snow. There are many Thai tourists in both evenings when we went back to hotel so the hotel is quite popular and crowded. Nevertheless the hotel was able to give us a high floor room away from elevators per our request and we had a quiet room which we appreciate a lot. Will definitely consider staying again given the hotel room is a good price!

My stay at Jozankei View Hotel was fantastic. The hotel has a very tranquil atmosphere, perfect for a hot spring resort. The dinner quality was a pleasant surprise; the sashimi and sweet shrimp were incredibly fresh, and the beef was delicious. For breakfast, the seafood donburi was also amazing and very satisfying. The onsen facilities were spacious and comfortable, making for a truly relaxing soak. Overall, the service, food, and environment were excellent. It was a very satisfying hot spring hotel experience and definitely worth recommending.

There's a free shuttle bus service from JR Station, I took the 13:00 bus and arrived at the hotel at 13:45. The staff kindly allowed me to check in early, which was really nice. They have a water park and large onsen facilities. Both the breakfast and dinner buffets were delicious; even though the variety wasn't huge, the food quality was consistently good. The Chateraise desserts and ice cream bars were especially tasty! On the day I checked in, there were Japanese, Hong Kong, *********, Korean tour groups, and even a Japanese school group. Although there were a lot of people, the hotel grounds are extensive, and the buffet items were refilled very quickly both morning and evening. The hotel has a classic feel, but everything is very well-maintained. The most traditional thing was that the air conditioning in the room was pre-set to 25 degrees Celsius, and the windows couldn't be opened. Given the current weather, it was a bit stuffy...
