Hostels in Hokkaido, Japan

"The hotel is conveniently located near the Kita-18-jo subway station exit. There's also a cafe on the ground floor, which is a nice touch. Both the baristas and the accommodation staff are very friendly and welcoming. However, it's a bit inconvenient if you have large luggage as there's no elevator and the stairwell is quite narrow."

"Stayed two nights at this hostel. The room was clean and quite spacious. We were a little surprised that we had to put on the bed sheet liners ourselves, but we understood that it is part of the hostel’s culture and regulations, so it was fine for us. The shared toilets were clean and well maintained for all guests. However, the main disappointment was that the hostel’s air conditioning was not working properly on the second night, unlike the first night. The room became very humid and stuffy, making it difficult for us to fall asleep even after informing the hostel reception."

"This hostel has a great location. Hokkaido University, with its excellent museum, is just a short walk north – I'd highly recommend checking it out. However, the room I stayed in had 20 beds on one floor, so if you're a light sleeper or sensitive to noise, you might want to look elsewhere. It's really more suited as a cheap, temporary place to crash."

"⭐️ Stayed in a mixed dorm room & was a bit worried at first - but pleasantly surprised at the end 💚PROS + staff is very kind and helpful and there is someone at the front desk almost all the time (night excluded) + they organize summer festivals and get-togethers with their Odori Park Partner Hostel + real big and comfortable beds & a lockable drawer + towel & 2 clotheshangers + clean showers & bathrooms + great showergels + washer & dryer + washroom area on 10th floor that’s usable 24/7 + nice and comfortable common rooms, with fridge, cooking- & washing area & free tea/coffee + great subway & bus connections + great attractions in walkable distance + rooms get cleaned daily & your bedding gets changed every 4 days ❤️🩹 CONS - would’ve loved more storage space next to my bed! 🌱 Really loved this hostel & spend my 8 nights there very comfortably! Most of my roommates were nice and abided by the rules set by the hostel - if i were to travel to Sapporo again, i would choose to stay there again 💗"

"The staff was the highlight of the place, everyone was incredibly friendly, going above and beyond to help sorting any doubts, providing tips or comply engaging in a friendly conversation. It’s also a great place for a remote worker like me since they offer a small coworking space with enough seats and internet connection. The location is great, 7 minutes walking from metro station, 10 min from odori park and all the main hot spots from Suzukino and Odori. The only downside is having the showers in a different floor, specially when it’s negative degrees. But yet the showers and kitchen offered everything that was needed."

"You will feel comfy and relaxed, like sitting and slaying at your home. We're 4 pax and stayed 1 night, but feel hommy and humble in everything here. Our room can fit 4-6 pax. Pls enjoy here if you love English country style!!"

"1. **Location** From Sapporo Station, it's about a 20-minute walk through the underground passage. You'll exit near Mega Don Quijote and find the hotel just one block away. Being right in the middle of the shopping district makes it incredibly convenient for shopping and dining. 2. **Facilities** The capsule itself is quite spacious – I could even fit my carry-on suitcase inside. There's a locker-like compartment within the capsule, which is great for storing valuables. On the 3rd floor where I stayed, there were two shower rooms, and the restrooms were separated for men, women, and also a unisex option. The shower rooms were a bit small, but they provided basic amenities like body wash and shampoo. The hallway temperature was comfortable due to constant air conditioning, but the capsule itself got quite chilly in the early morning. I tend to get hot easily, so if I felt cold, others might find it quite uncomfortable. It was nice to have a small snack area on the second floor. 3. **Service** Check-in was on the second floor, and the staff spoke decent English, which was a plus. I paid a 300 yen accommodation tax upon check-in. 4. **Other** With quite a few capsules on one floor, I was worried the shower rooms would be crowded. However, surprisingly, it wasn't busy at all, perhaps because people naturally used them at different times. Overall, it's a perfectly decent capsule hotel for solo travelers on a budget."

"Had a pleasant stay here. It's about 10-15 min walk from the station. Shared bathrooms and toilets. Only 1 with a bathtub. Free washing machine and dryer (about 3-4hrs) but you pay ¥100 for the launch pod. Free coffee, tea, etc. Beds a bit noisy and squeaky. Whole place smells like pine cos most of the furniture is pine. Place is quite quiet but you can still hear other guests walking. Good thing we stayed with few guests. There's a gap between the bed and wall so depending on how you sleep, might drop your pillow in the gap. There's a Lawson right opposite and a good restaurant, a decent ramen place and some bakery further up."

"The hostel is located within a few minutes’ walk to the Tanukikoji Shopping Street where there are a wide choice of eateries.  Susukino subway station is also quite near and you can reach tourist attractions in the city by public transport easily.  There is a communal kitchen for use by hotel guests to cook their meals.  There is also a free coffee corner in the kitchen where you can prepare your own tea and coffee with ingredients provided with compliment of the hostel.  The hostel is located in a quiet street and you get a good sleep at night.  I would book the same hostel the next time I come to Sapporo."

"Sparkling clean although understand a reason for that is that you can’t cook here or even use their cutlery. They just supply some cups (though there is a kitchen sink on the top floor by the fridge). This place doesn’t really have a lounge. A problem with sharing the ground floor lounge with a cafe is that when I’m sitting there a cafe waitress comes by expecting me to order something."
