Very happy with our stay at the Sapporo Prince Hotel. The rooms are small, but large enough (compared to others) to be able to unpack 3 suitcases.

The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable and the room was very quiet and dark (during the night), which provided a great nights sleep.

Staff were wonderful, and very helpful. Taking bags to the rooms etc.

Relatively well located, we walked down Odori Park to the TV Tower and Clock Tower.

We had a nightcap at the Sky Bar, which had amazing views of the city at night. However, you do have to pay a small fee after 5:30pm (added to your bill) approx. 8AUD p person. Personally we thought it was worth this, excellent cocktails too.

What could be improved: Sadly we didn’t use the onsen during our stay (there is an extra charge to use this). The female inside onsen had a risk of legionnaires. The female outside onsen was available to use, but I believe it is quite small.

Although the male onsen was available my husband was put off by the legionnaires, so decided not to use it.

I like the location, its convenient and it is easy to see from a far. There is also airport shuttle but you need to reserve ahead.

What could be improved: We booked a standard room (floor 11). It looked a bit outdated in terms of interior. TV does not have chromecast or netflix capability. Free WIFI is very spotty, not good 😞!

Breakfast is great. However, the hotel is fully booked, so there is a long queue for eating.
But the Hotel already put a warning sign to come for breakfast early. Room is clean.

Beautiful view from our room, clean facilities.

What could be improved: I understand tattoo culture in Japan, however I was quite upset to see that we were not able to use the onsen in the hotel because of our tattoos and were not warned in advance. We thought it would be okay since it is not ‘public’ and there was nothing stating we couldn’t.

Breakfast is very amazing! Pajamas are very comfortable.

What could be improved: Thought I could get a good view of the city so I booked a higher floor room. But I didn’t see much from my room.
