HELIO HOSTEL SAPPORO 2 stars

Odori, Sapporo

Conveniently located in the Sapporo City Centre district of Sapporo, HELIO HOSTEL SAPPORO is set 13 km from Shin-Sapporo Station, 20 km from Otarushi Zenibako City Center and 36 km from Otaru Station. Featuring a shared lounge, the 2-star hostel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a shared bathroom. The property is 100 metres from the city centre and 1.9 km from Sapporo Station. The cabin space is more like a mini room. The space on top of your bed is actually a half partitioned storage area for your luggage. So you get a semi-open area and excellent space (can even stand). Amenities like towels, toothbrush and toothpaste, disposable slippers etc are all provided. You have 2 indoor lounge areas. One is the common area nearby the shower and restroom. Another is the 24h accessible larger cafe area (use the same access card) which is more suitable for study/reading. I utilized both while watching the snow falls in Sapporo. Not gonna lie, it has a very nice vibe 😁. Elevator is available and fast enough. Convenience store right beside it. Multi level parking lots just right across the building. Roughly 1 block away from the tram line, and 3 min walk to Odori park. Close enough to the nightlife in Susukino. Just excellent location. Coin washer + dryer works well and available 24h. There's also a separate section for women to shower and prep in the common area.
