Blue Hotel Octa (Adult Only)

Absolutely thrilled with my stay here—this might be the most satisfying hotel experience I've had in a long time. The room was by far the largest I've ever stayed in, offering incredible space and comfort. Free parking and a delicious breakfast were big bonuses, making it great value for money. The only downside? No elevator—just stairs. That meant carrying my two suitcases up to check-in, which was a bit of a workout, but the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly throughout. What made it unforgettable? I accidentally left my IQOS heating device in the bathroom! I'm crossing my fingers it's still there for next time—I might just have to come back and try my luck 😅. Overall, the quiet atmosphere, thoughtful touches, and excellent location make this a perfect retreat for adults looking for peace and comfort.

Located right next to Kotoni Station, it's incredibly convenient for travelers connecting via train or heading into Sapporo city center—just a 10-minute walk to the nearest subway station. The rooms are spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly quiet for such a central location. I appreciated the simple but satisfying breakfast with warm options and local touches—perfect for starting the day. While dining choices nearby are limited, there are a few decent restaurants within walking distance, and across the street is a 7-Eleven, which comes in handy for late-night snacks or essentials. The hotel offers excellent value for money, especially if you're traveling on a budget or just need a comfortable, hassle-free base during a short visit.

Estrella

The hotel offers a spacious room and well-maintained facilities, making it a comfortable stay overall. It's conveniently located near public transit, so getting around Sapporo is easy and hassle-free. The only downside is that there’s no parking available on-site, which means you’ll need to find a nearby paid lot—something to keep in mind if you’re driving. That said, considering the location and value for money, it’s a minor trade-off. I’d definitely consider staying here again on my next visit to Sapporo.

Culture24

The room layout was excellent—spacious and well-designed, making the stay very comfortable. However, I noticed an issue with the blanket on the duvet; it seemed like too much detergent was used during washing or it hadn’t been changed in a while, leaving a strong chemical smell. This could be problematic for guests with allergies or sensitive skin. A simple refresh of the bedding and a switch to milder laundry products would go a long way in improving the experience. Despite this minor concern, the overall value and comfort still make this a great choice for travelers visiting Sapporo.
