Great Ryokan for an affordable price. Truly authentic Japanese style. Only thing to keep in mind is that the lobby is a smoking area. My room was above the lobby so I could smell it all night long. The staff sent me an air purifier which helped. Breakfast was great and everyone was super nice

Truely had a wonderful stay, the staff are very nice and friendly. We were there during the recent earthquake and everyone there went out of their way to ensure we were ok and had enough food etc. When we had to extend our stay due to the airport being closed, they did all they could to accomindate our need for additional days etc. By the end of our trip, they felt like family. This kind of caring is lost at bigger hotels. Treat yourself to the experience of staying in a traditional style Japanese room under the care of this hotel staff, will not hesitate to stay there again.

Great location and wonderful service!
Loved staying in traditional tatami room and having access to small onsen on the 2nd floor. The owner and staff were all very nice. Breakfast was very good and plenty, definitely worth the small price. Very convenient location, short walk to central train Station and other sights. Perfect for a short stay.

We stayed here for three nights and were welcomed by very friendly staff. Our rooms were clean and warm and very comfortable. The onsen was relaxing after a day’s sightseeing. I can recommend the breakfast as well.

Good experience of Ryokan
I was with my family total of 5 people. Hotel was quite small but relatively good size for accommodation in Japan. It took us around 10 minutes to Sapporo Station but there were plenty of subway walk where you can escaped the cold weather. On our arrival we received a welcome dessert and tea. House keeping was great and they promptly responded to your request. They also prepared your bed too. Their onsen was separated male and female. It was a bit small but that’s where I spent time with my sister at night bath. They have their own toilet and bathroom. We didn’t get to try meals at the hotel as there were plenty of restaurants around.

Great and welcoming experience
Just right opposite former government building which is very beautiful during white winter. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Deposited my luggage as I arrived early and when I returned to check in at night, my luggage was already in my room and was welcomed with mochi and tea. A little cold in winter though but had a wonderful ryokan experience.

The hotel is great with nice welcoming staff and the location is really cool, next to botanical gardens and close to government building. Not sure if all the rooms had this but we had a private bathroom and there was also a traditional public bath a floor below.

This is a great place to try out a japanese ryokan. They great you with tea service in the room which is a nice touch. The Japanese tatami mat beds were the most comfortable that I have slept on. The place is great and in a great central location.

Cosy ryokan in the middle of the city
Ryokan is probably a 10mins or so walk from Sapporo station. Smooth check in process. We were all greeted warmly by front desk and other staff members. We were orientated to the ryokan. Facilities were outdated however that's the charm of ryokans! Facility was clean and spotless. There is a public bath but none of us used it. Futons were comfortable. Self laundry is available at the ryokan. We purchased a coupon for breakfast (1080yen)- variety of things to eat (mostly Japanese styled breakfast options). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay over the three nights.

Nice little ryokan
The staff was wonderful and helped me with my sightseeing planning. Dinner in your room is a must if you are staying there. It is a very short walk from the JR Sapporo station and a walkable distance to Odori park and Sapporo tower. Being that my visit was during the cold season, I can say the room was always in a comfortable temperature. I will visit again in the future. P.S. This Ryokan has quite a history leading back to the very early 1900s, it is very interesting.

Very small room
The stay was not so good: the room was an extreme squeeze for 4 people, and it was just enough space to lay 4 futons, with absolutely no more space to open our luggages. The toilet was also very small. The bath towels are of very thin materials and bath soap and shampoo are in little packets and there was no hair conditioner. The only positive thing was the friendliness of the staff, even though they spoke very limited English. Would not recommend if you want a comfortable stay!
