Sosei Sapporo · ChuoFor this guide we have gathered the best hotels in Sapporo: two 5-star hotels, from 172 euros a night.The two luxury hotels in Sapporo cost 172 € and 366 € a night.
InterContinental Sapporo · Chūō‑kuBoth include a breakfast for two, a hotel credit of 100 US dollars and an upgrade upon availability.
But at only one of the two do those benefits apply from the first night.
This is the sum worth doing in Sapporo.
The Sosei Sapporo costs 172 € – but asks for two nights before the suitespot benefits take effect. It lists six categories, and all six are rooms: Superior, Deluxe, Executive Superior and Executive Deluxe. It also includes a welcome gift.
The InterContinental Sapporo costs 366 € and applies from the first night. It offers 13 categories, four of them suites, with sizes from 42 to 160 m², and credits your stay in IHG One Rewards.
Our advice: if you are staying two nights anyway, the Sosei Sapporo is by far the cheaper route to the same core benefits. If you are coming for one night, the InterContinental Sapporo settles the question by itself.
The two best hotels in Sapporo stand in the same ward: Chūō, the centre of the city.
The Sosei Sapporo stands from 172 € with six categories. Our recommendation for anyone staying two nights or more who would rather spend the money in the city than on the room.
The InterContinental Sapporo stands from 366 € with 13 categories, four of them suites. Our recommendation for anyone who wants a suite – or is staying only one night.
Because both are central, in Sapporo it is not the walk to the subway that decides but the length of your stay.

At the Sosei Sapporo it is six room categories: Superior twice, Deluxe twice, plus Executive Superior and Executive Deluxe.

How long to stay: three nights. Sapporo itself is seen in two days; the third belongs to the surroundings – the mountains to the west or the onsen of Jozankei, barely an hour away.
The table is worth a look: at the InterContinental Sapporo the suitespot benefits apply from the first night, at the Sosei Sapporo from the second.
When it is at its best: from December to March, when the snow lies, the powder slopes are an hour away and the Snow Festival takes place in February. Our recommendation for a first visit.
From June to September Hokkaido is cool and green while the rest of Japan sits in the humidity. Our recommendation for anyone wanting to dodge the summer.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in the quietest week of the year just as in the busiest.
At both hotels a breakfast for two, a hotel credit of 100 US dollars, an upgrade upon availability and an early check-in or late check-out are included.
