Top Blue Grotto Hotel Reviews

Hotel Gracery Sapporo

10/10 Excellent

"we ended up doing the exec level, the room was super comfortable and very posh, however, our room had no view . It was facing inward toward other rooms. The suite type was very comfortable and as long as you don't care about whats out the window, the room was nice. The club access was minimal but still nice to have and got coffee . evening had beer and wine ."

Sapporo Grand Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel with courteous and friendly staff. Great location"

Grand Park Otaru

10/10 Excellent

"It is very hard to fault this hotel because they have done almost everything right. The rooms facing the sea have a magnificent view, which puts a smile on your face every morning. Plus it is connected to the AEON shopping centre right next to it so it's very convenient especially if you feel like doing some late night shopping or last minute supply replenishment. That said, there are two things that I am not happy about: 1. There are no power outlets or USB ports at the bedside table to charge your phone. 2. One of the light switches is actually linked to the wall power outlet, to which the floor lamp is plugged in. That means whenever I switch off the lights on that side of the room it would also switch off whatever is plugged into that power outlet e.g. laptop / tablet / camera / power bank etc. If these are no big deal to you, then you should really check it out."

SAPPORO HOTEL by GRANBELL

8/10 Good

"硬件设施很好，其他的还好。"

Onsen Ryokan Yuen Sapporo

10/10 Excellent

"Please note once you take the car from hotel parking, you cannot park in the hotel again until 3pm"

The Knot Sapporo

10/10 Excellent

"perfect hotel in the city of saporro. witness the 2026 marathon while having our breakfast. overlooking the street with lots of runners. love the breakfast too"

Jozankei Yurakusoan

10/10 Excellent

"This was such a charming resort. We felt like it was the adult version of a Disney-style Japanese onsen. The facility was spotless. The staff was remarkably helpful. Almost everyone chose to wear the traditional garb or kimono while walking throughout the property. Our room was stunning! Wish we had a longer stay at Jazankei Yurakusoan."

Premier Hotel Tsubaki Sapporo

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very friendly, and the hotel was very clean."

Sapporo Prince Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Bed was quite comfortable, but several large pillows. The bathtub was massive, perfect for a long bath after a long travel day. The highlight, though, was the well equipped gym. It is one of the better hotel gyms we’ve ever used."
