Keio Plaza Hotel Sapporo

Excellent breakfast. I like the choice of buffet breakfast on 1st floor plus 22nd floor set breakfast. Tried both. The 22nd floor set breakfast is Japanese, nice, and have a great view of the city. It is neat but does not offer as much food choices as the buffet. e.g. no choice of fruits, no ice cream, etc. Still, it is a good idea to do that 22nd floor breakfast at least oncve during the stay. Location: not far from Sapporo Station and Daimaru. About 10-15 minutes walk (2 city blocks). However, it is far from the TV Tower area/underground shopping areas if you want to do a lot of shoppings/eatings there. Still, the shops around Sapporo Station offer a lot, in particular Daimaru. My wife was happy shopping just near the Station, and didn't bother to go with me to do the routine sightseeing.

The rooms have been refurbished since my last visit in 2014. The layout and lighting have been improved whilst the shower/bathroom remained the same. The furniture and fittings are newer. The location is good, close to JR Sapporo station and a multitude of eateries. The room I had was of decent size for a Hotel in Japan. The internet wifi speed was fast and stable. Room amenities were good, with this being a rare hotel that provided a decent number of hangers for use. The hotel is the best location to stay if you want to take the coach to the regional ski resort.

It was the same hotel that I stayed 10 years ago and they have definitely made some upgrades to the rooms. Had a room on the Premier floor and had access to club lounge for tea and snacks :) They also had a great breakfast selection The hotel is within walking distance from the Sapporo station and it’s manageable for me with 2 luggage to get from the station to the hotel. They are also the start of the airport limousine to New Chitose Airport so no need to lug your luggage to the airport.

The concierge staffs were really helpful. I wrote many times to Keio Plaza to assist in booking reservations for restaurants and they have been so helpful and very prompt. Special thanks to Eriko San and Akiko San for your help! The room that we stayed in was basic and clean, space was not too big but sufficient if your luggage is not too big. Location wise is fine, it is 5 mins walk to JR station and Sapporo station and also close to many shopping centres.

Excellent hotel. It is at walking distance to the station, has comfortable beds, the rooms have a nice view. The staff was really helpful. Some of them speak English pretty well, all of thel speak English at least at basic level. For instance, they wrote in Japanese my request to deliver postal parcel for the post staff. The breakfast at the restaurant above was outstanding. By far the best food I've ever eaten in a hotel. The breakfast downstairs was good. There is a spa, although I didn't try it. The remotes of TV and airco are dubbed in English.
