Mountain View Hotels in Sapporo

March 24, 2026 I stayed at Mori no Uta for my birthday. I contacted the hotel in advance, and they had a birthday card ready for me. The hotel offers a free shuttle service from Makomanai Station, which needs to be booked beforehand. On the day I checked out, I booked the 9:30 AM shuttle, arrived at the station at 10:00 AM, and smoothly caught the 10:10 AM airport bus to New Chitose Airport. It was all seamless. The Japanese-Western style room was 40 square meters and quite spacious. It had a huge massage chair and a coffee machine. What impressed me most was dinner, where they offered freshly made pizza or naan that you could customize with toppings and have delivered to your table once baked. The naan crust was soft and fragrant with a wheaty aroma. I specifically asked for extra large shrimp and a generous amount of cheese – it was impossible not to love it! The dinner seating faced a beautifully illuminated snow scene outside, which was absolutely stunning. The hotel lobby boasts a magnificent, floor-to-ceiling fireplace, which is perfect for photos. In the evening, there was a small harp concert, creating a very pleasant atmosphere. Both breakfast and dinner featured incredibly creamy ice cream. I had two big bowls at each meal and thoroughly enjoyed it!

I can’t recommend this hotel enough – it was one of the highlights of our Hokkaido trip! The free shuttle bus service to and from Sapporo Station (both ways) made everything so convenient. No need to worry about taxis or public transport after a long day – just hop on and relax. Super thoughtful and saved us a lot of hassle. The decoration is beautifully traditional Japanese style – think elegant tatami rooms, shoji screens, and that authentic ryokan vibe. It felt very calming and immersive right from check-in. The onsen is absolutely superb! The water quality is excellent, the facilities are clean and well-maintained, and the views (especially the outdoor bath) are stunning – so relaxing after exploring Sapporo or Jozankei area. One of the best onsen experiences I’ve had. Breakfast buffet was a real treat: fresh Hokkaido ingredients shine through, with amazing seafood (uni, salmon roe, sashimi-grade fish), local veggies, and high-quality dishes. Everything tasted super fresh and delicious – perfect way to start the day. They even offer free hot wine and sparkling wine service in the evenings – such a nice touch! We really enjoyed sipping while unwinding. Honestly, I can’t say enough good things. Great value, authentic atmosphere, top-notch onsen, and thoughtful extras. Highly recommended! 🌸♨️

I was very nervous when I made the reservation. I looked for reviews on several platforms for the hotel, but there were almost no reviews on the entire web. However, I didn't want to go to those large hotels that receive tour groups, so I decided to give it a try. The hotel is a very, very local hot spring hotel. There is a man and a woman who are both older cleaning the hotel. There is also a front desk and restaurant manager. There are 10 rooms in the whole hotel, and 4 people serve. Except for the restaurant, all other areas are self-service. The hotel is very secluded and close to the river. The nearest bus stop to the hotel is Jozankei Bridge, about 500 meters away on foot. The rooms are clean, tidy and comfortable, but the facilities are a little old. There is an air outlet above the bed with a large air volume, and there is no place to close it. The hot spring is small and exquisite, and the men's and women's baths will be switched, so that you can experience the hot springs on both sides on the day of check-in and the next day. The biggest feature of the hotel is the food. Just look at the pictures. It is a leisure hotel that is very worth experiencing and staying in again.

Jozankei Manseikaku has so much delicious food! The scenery is beautiful too! It's super convenient, only about a 30-40 minute drive to Sapporo Art Park and Sapporo Kokusai Ski Resort respectively.

I felt like I was staying in a Ghibli movie! The room was huge, with an open design and distinct Japanese charm. The private onsen was incredibly relaxing, and the large window allowed me to watch TV while soaking. On the first floor, there were unlimited snacks, drinks, and alcoholic beverages – you could easily spend the whole day just drinking! Breakfast was also delivered to the room, offering great privacy. Perfect for a relaxing, chill-out stay. Just a heads-up: when booking through Ctrip, there was no mention of needing to reserve dinner in advance. As a result, we only had the option of a kaiseki meal on the day, which was pretty mediocre and not worth the price (aside from the à la carte seafood from the tank).

”Peaceful, Clean, Isolated” We booked the hotel in the last minute because our trip plan changed. We booked the ”Run of house” room-only type at an acceptable price. We arrived late at about 21.00. An aunty was at the reception to check us in. Although she could not speak English but she appeared very friendly. We got a room on the first floor. The room was new, clean, and large; with a separate living room, a bathroom, and a bedroom (western style). We went to the Onsen right away; there were indoor and outdoor Onsen. At that time, there were no other people in the bath, so it was so private and relaxing.  We spent a night there and left early in the morning. There were other guests in the hotel but it was quiet and peaceful. The check out process was quick. The only drawback was the location. It was a little bit far away from other things. The closest bus stop was about 10 minutes away from the hotel (it was okay in the day, but walking along that route at night was a bit scary as there were a lot of abandoned buildings).

The room was nice, spacious, and clean. The bathroom was also quite big. However, the room was inconvenient because you have to climb stairs. Free parking is available. The location is a bit far from the city center, but overall, I really liked the room.

Comfortable stay with good facilities (better if you have a car) Overall, we had a pleasant stay. The facilities were good and the place was comfortable. We especially enjoyed the onsen, which was very relaxing after a long day. One thing to note is the location 🙂it is not very convenient without a car, so I would recommend driving. If you have a car, then everything is fine and easy to get around. Service was decent overall, and everything went quite smoothly. There is still some room for improvement, but it was a good experience and worth the price. Would consider staying again.

The location is very good and convenient for traveling. It is very convenient to walk to the subway station in two steps. It is only three stops away from Li Xiaolu Commercial Street. It is great. The environment is also good and the facilities are complete. I am very satisfied!

There is a convenience store downstairs, the location is quite close to the station, it is quite convenient, it is an apartment type, the things are also rich, fill in the form in advance and receive the password, you will see the password box hanging at the door after you arrive at the room on the same day, enter the password and open it. You will get the key, which is a very special and convenient way. The disadvantage is that the air conditioner can't sleep in the room, but it can't be too hot.
