Hotel Mystays Sapporo Aspen
10/10 Excellent
"Hotel was in a great location, close to Sapporo Station (only 2 blocks away). Enjoyed how close this hotel was to the station but away from the hustle and busyness around Sapporo Station. Stayed in a superior queen room for 4 nights. For 2 people the room was just enough space with our backpacks, 1 large suitcase, and 1 carry-on suitcase. The amenities available were great - providing various toiletries for use at the front (face lotion, cleanser, bath towel, etc.). Breakfast buffet was delicious with a good variety of items to select and staff on top of making sure things were restocked quickly. Staff were always helpful and welcoming.
Didn't try the restaurants downstairs in the lobby level (Sapporo seafood specialty dishes and a Spanish tapas like bar), but it was great to have that option available, especially when snowing outside.

"I had a great experience with my family. I booked a room for two, but two more family members ended up joining. The room was so spacious that two additional beds could easily fit. The room was clean, staff were helpful, and dining was excellent. I only wish that the hotel provides a public baths!"
"This is an excellent hotel, slightly off the tourist beaten path, with a quiet and elegant vibe. The rooftop bar has a view of Sapporo that is exquisite. The staff is attentive and helpful. Free shuttle bus to new Chitose airport. Excellent breakfast options. Walking distance to Odori Park and Subway and street cars, this is an excellent choice if you want to stay out of tourist mayhem."
