"Stair inside the room that can directly goto the other room without door/gate. Feel not safe if stranger live downstair, also not safe if young kids walking around. The toilet without any ventilation fan, make it a bit smelly. Parking area is not big enough for 2 car, maybe is the parking instruction not show clearly how to park the car. The instruction should show how two car parking in the parking area. This house better for those who only need sleep."

Top Otaru Aquarium Hotel Reviews

Premier Hotel Tsubaki Sapporo

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient bus from airport dropped me off right in front of the hotel. My room was spacious and comfortable. Excellent buffet breakfast. Hotel shuttle to Tokyo Station made getting to central Sapporo a breeze."

Sapporo Grand Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff.. excellent"

Dormy Inn Premium Otaru Natural Hot Spring

10/10 Excellent

"Due to my schedule, I could only stay for a single day, but it was the kind of hotel where I would have loved to stay longer if I had the time. The comfortable bed, the accommodation itself, and the delicious meals were all excellent."

Hotel Emion Sapporo

10/10 Excellent

"우선 이번 여행은 약 20년 만에 다시 방문한 삿포로였습니다. 이번 여행은 부부 여행으로 모든 것을 제가 인터넷을 통해 하나부터 열 가지를 정했습니다. 'Hotel Emion Sapporo'도 삿포로 역에서 가깝고 보기에 깨끗해서 인터넷으로 예약했었습니다. 2박 3일 동안 정말 깨끗한 시설에서, 게다가 청소까지 너무 잘해주어서 상쾌하게 지낼 수 있었습니다. 대욕장도 편리했고, 편의 시설인 세탁기도 사용하기 쉽게 관리되고 있어 좋았습니다. 조금 안 좋았던 것은 아침식사가 너무 맛 있어, 제 양보다 많이 먹게 되었고 몸무게가 1.3kg 정도 늘었다는 것입니다. 아무튼 집 사람과 둘이 행복하게 삿포로를 즐길 수 있는 기반이 되어준 호텔이었습니다. 다음에 방문할 기회가 온다면 또 예약하고 싶은 호텔이었습니다."

SAPPORO HOTEL by GRANBELL

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room"

Grand Park Otaru

8/10 Good

"She must have been a grand lady once. Rooms are very much showing their age but were still very nice. A beautiful hotel with large rooms, great ocean view and I loved the retro look and feel of the furnishings, a flash back to when grand hotels were luxurious with a European taste. It is further away from downtown though having the Aeon mall and grocery attached can be convenient. Parking garage was convenient."

Hotel Gracery Sapporo

10/10 Excellent

"Located across the street from the JR Sapporo Station and its shopping complex, it's a great base for Sapporo. The rapid train takes only 40-minutes from CTS airport. The hotel connects to the underground shopping/passageway all the way to Susukino."

Hotel Monterey Edelhof Sapporo

8/10 Good

"Excellent ambience. Great location! Central building let's you wear hotel wear to onsen. South side, have to wear regular clothes to onsen."

Quintessa Hotel Sapporo Susukino

8/10 Good

"Property and location was good room was smaller and I need extra pillows but the staff would only partially accommodate."
