Sapporo Hotels with Gym

First off, Ivy's ambiance is subtly pleasant and very comfortable. The service, I found, was just right. The way staff would nod and smile every time I entered, that subtle presence of 'we're here if you need us' felt really good. Almost all facilities have no time limits (except for the sauna which closes at midnight), so no need to rush for showers or the gym. It's perfect for night owls to quietly explore the hotel at any time! The lounge always has replenished snacks and drinks, and public spaces are always tidied up. Of course, this assumes everyone helps maintain a quiet atmosphere. The room layout was smooth, quiet, and conducive to good sleep. The air conditioning and all other facilities were noise-free. The flowing private hot spring was the best white noise for falling asleep. The room lighting was also perfectly designed! I really slept well, so checking out at 11 am was a bit difficult. It would be perfect if check-out could be at 12 pm! Even in summer, it's not boring at all. Although the Summer Lantern Festival isn't a huge event, it's still interesting! At least it's great for photos! I'd honestly love to come back in winter to experience the incredible snowy scenery! There are two young men who speak Chinese, and they are both very nice, so language communication isn't much of a worry. Friends who have stayed here also said Ivy was a pleasant surprise, a place that feels like home during their travels. However, to be honest, the dining was neither particularly good nor bad; nothing surprising there. My review might be subjective, but I genuinely love Ivy.

Staff are remarkably friendly, well-trained, and consistently ready to assist. The breakfast buffet offers a wide and impressive variety of choices. While the room lighting is somewhat dim for reading or applying makeup—likely a deliberate design choice—the room features a pleasant view overlooking the brewery. Additionally, the mattress and pillows provide an exceptionally comfortable and relaxing stay.

Overall, I was very satisfied. I felt safe and relaxed throughout my stay. The service was excellent across the board, truly worth the price. The room was new and very clean, and the room service was both delicious and reasonably priced. The soundproofing was excellent, allowing me to sleep very soundly. The location is convenient; it's a three-minute walk from Nakajima-koen Station's Exit 1 on the Namboku subway line. Susukino is a ten-minute walk away, and Odori is fifteen minutes. Of course, there are always taxis available right outside if you prefer not to walk. The window view was beautiful. However, in mid-to-late April, many scenic spots and attractions in Sapporo and Hokkaido haven't yet reached their peak (e.g., the cherry blossoms hadn't bloomed). If your primary purpose is sightseeing, you might consider visiting at a more opportune time.

I stayed at this hotel in June. It's easily accessible from Sapporo Station, whether you take the ground-level route or the underground pass. The room was quite spacious, with two large windows that let in plenty of light. For drinking water, you can either use the glass carafe provided by the hotel to get water from the dispenser near the elevator, or simply buy water from the convenience store downstairs, which is also very convenient. The hotel offers complimentary breakfast, and you have the flexibility to choose between Japanese or Western buffet style. You can even switch between them daily – no need to commit to one. Just show your room number at the restaurant entrance. I personally found the Japanese breakfast tastier than the Western one. The Western restaurant was incredibly noisy, like a bustling market, whereas the Japanese restaurant, located on the first basement floor, was much quieter and less crowded. There's a direct airport shuttle bus right outside the hotel. As it's the first stop, the bus arrives early. You can board about ten minutes before the scheduled departure time. The driver helps with luggage, and you can pick any seat. Upon arrival at the airport, you pay 1500 JPY in cash. I've noticed the ticket price seems to be increasing, so it's best to check the current price listed on the timetable. There are also fare reminders inside the bus. During the summer, there aren't many people, and the bus runs on time. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel. I noticed that most of the negative reviews were from guests who stayed in winter, complaining about outdated facilities and high prices (over 1000 JPY per night). In summer, it's only around 400 JPY per night including breakfast, which is why I'm giving a good review. The only minor inconvenience was that you have to decide how many disposable toiletries you need at check-in, as they are provided by the front desk and not available for self-service.

Lovely stay in Susukino — amazing staff! Perfect location right in Susukino, walking distance to Tanukikoji and ramen alley. Room was modern, clean, and the bed was so comfortable. Special thanks to Yura and Shirol at check-in — they were incredibly warm, helpful, and made us feel welcome straight away.

The rooms are spacious. Sapporo isn't that big, so getting around by taxi is very convenient. The breakfast is plentiful, and there's a large public bath for soaking and sauna. The lounge offers Sapporo beer, nuts, and many other beverages. There are also two restaurants right in the hotel, so you don't need to take a taxi out for meals when you're tired. It's very suitable for traveling with elderly people.

Hotel is conveniently located 200m from the airport limo bus stop. Lots of eateries, shopping and entertainment at its door step. Set back is it is rather dated, and rooms are small, in particular the bathroom, which is only slightly bigger than a 6 foot table!

For my trip to Sapporo, I chose to stay at the Prince Hotel. It's an older, established Japanese hotel with standard rooms that are typical of traditional Japanese hotel specifications. The location is convenient, situated at the end of Odori Park, and just a 400-meter walk from the subway station. The hotel also offers a shuttle bus service to Sapporo Station. From the hotel, it departs on the half-hour, but you need to book in advance at the front desk in the morning. From Sapporo Station, it departs on the hour, with the last bus at 7 PM. You can find it right next to the bus stop outside Sapporo Station, and the hotel's logo is on the bus. If you have a lot of luggage, you can also take the airport limousine bus directly from Sapporo Airport to the hotel entrance for 1500 JPY (cash per person), which is very convenient. However, for the return trip, there are only two buses to the airport daily, at 9:38 AM and 10:38 AM. We missed them on our way back, so we booked the hotel shuttle to Sapporo Station and took the JR train to the airport, which was also very easy! The hotel has a paid onsen (hot spring) on the second floor; guests can pay at the front desk to use it. We arrived back at the hotel too late each night to try it, but I'd definitely like to experience it next time!😆

I had been here before covid and I fondly recalled how helpful, friendly and caring the team members were. Hence, I decided to return again. Pros- Ample Parking , Proximity to station Nakajima Koen, park. And if you don't mind taking a 10-15 mins quick walk can reach susukino stn as well. Housekeeping is good and clean. Some of the front desk staff speaks English and are always trying their best to assist. These staff deserves commendation. ( Couldn't get their names as the badge is in nihongo) The afternoon and night shifts male team is fantastic and patient. The furnishing in the room could help with some modern changes.. it's looking rustic now. My favourite part is the level 4 laundry room where it is so important to us to have clean and dry clothing. The restaurants in the hotel standard seems to have declined. The Unagi one is average , the farm to table is lacking in traffic and it's not the same as in 2018/2019. Maybe the kitchen team had left or something happened to the ingredients used. But no issue as there are so much more to have and try in Sapporo city! Would return again if we are ever going to Sapporo. The service attitude received is welcoming and warm.

Bed is rock hard. After 4 nights, I have serious back ache, plus I'm lacking in sleep, due to how hard and uncomfortable the bed was. The pool facility wasn't fully open (it only does so in August). The last week in July at least opens the some of the outside area for use, but it doesn't fully open until August. They'd also made the 25m outside pool a wipeout/ninja obstacle course so, if you want to actually swim [do some lengths etc] then the only place you can do this was initially only open in August and even then it is now taken over by an obstacle. The indoor sections are open all year round. You have to pay extra to access the slides - not too crazy at 500 or 600yen depending on the day for unlimited access (you're given a wristband). Breakfast was ok. Wide variety of foods - some of which I wouldn't normally associate with breakfast, but still nice to have choices. Signage claims it gets busy after 8am. This is definitely not true - it's busy when it first opens at 7am and then slowly gets quieter over the 7~10 opening times (last entry at 9:30). Can't speak about weekends tho. Shuttle bus is busiest at the 5pm time slot. Overall, a ”resort” that claims to be 4 stars it most certainly isn't. 2 stars yes. 2.5 maybe. But the whole place just feels quite dated and far from the luxury expected from a ”4 star hotel”. Apart from the bed as I've already mentioned, the room was a good enough size but all the decor and controls were old. The Aircon control was worn and glitchy (button presses would turn it off etc) but at least it worked and made the room the temp we wanted. The lighting panel has had so many changes there are stickers on it to blank out buttons which no longer function - fair enough, but maybe spend a bit of money on a decent upgrade??? This hotel isn't cheap!
