Richmond Hotel Sapporo Odori
$100-180 / noapte
Rezervă dacă You want to sleep inside the shopping arcade and eat your way through Sapporo without ever putting on a coat.
De ce o iubesc oamenii
- Direct backdoor access to Tanukikoji Shopping Arcade (Block 4)
- Renovated in late 2024 with fresh, modern interiors
- Exceptional breakfast buffet featuring all-you-can-eat scallop and salmon roe
Privire rapidă: A polished, high-efficiency basecamp that trades room square footage for unbeatable location.
Evaluat de @yisin0903: I spent a few days here during my Hokkaido winter trip. It’s not a luxury resort, but coming back to this warm, clean room after freezing on the train was heaven. Perfect practical base for exploring the city.

- You prioritize being able to drop off shopping bags mid-day
- You love Japanese business hotel efficiency but want a slightly more upscale feel
