Tmark City Hotel Sapporo Odori

I reserved a Japanese style room and was worried the bed would be firm and uncomfortable, but it's a regular mattress, just on the floor, so it was great. The room was very spacious and comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was wonderful - a big buffet selection of different things each day, but always eggs and rice and things my western stomach wants in the morning. Location was about 10-12 minutes walk from nearest subway but it was on a nice quiet street, easy to get taxi/uber right out front. Would 100% stay here again.

The staff rocked. I had a car and it was bucketing down, and the guy came out with a brolly. They showed me the closest, available parking spot, and sorted everything out nicely. This on top of other guests and then a bus load of Chinese arrived, all noisy and demanding. Credit also goes to Rin/Lin from Taiwan, she is an excellent receptionist and her English is unbelievable. The room was lovely, everything worked well, the bed was comfy, shower hot and towels fluffy.

1) The breakfast is excellent, with a large choice of Japanese plates, and vaery varied automated drinks (coffie, tee, sparkling water, juice, coca, milk etc.). This is not a suprise, as ther are 5 staff occupied to prepare, serve, and clean during the breakfast. 2) The reception staff is very courteous and friendly.

the location was pretty close to everything, which is convenient. The hotel was clean and had quite a bit of space which was nice. Close to malls, big shopping centres, food stores and station as well as Odori park.

This Hotel was great. We stayed for 7 nights and we had everything you need in the room. For western guests it is important to understand that the room offers the Japanese minimalistic style perfectly, as well the bathroom is of Japanese style. Meaning a Japanese Bathtub (which is shorter) while the whole room is considered a wet room, but you have a shower pole if you wish to stand for a shower, a great compromise. This Hotel is greatly located with lots of restaurants and shopping opportunities in walking distance. The stuff is very friendly and helpful, the hotel is very clean and we were on the 10th floor which was really quiet. For westerners it needs to be understood that the breakfast buffet is also of Japanese nature, with no western cuisine or anything can be ordered extra. But hey, you do not travel to Japan and eat European style breakfast or food in general. I am German and survived for a week without my sausages 😉. The hotel is visited mainly by other Asian groups, mostly Chinese during our stay. I really enjoyed being the only Caucasian during our week (my wife is Japanese), but others might feel different. We highly recommend this hotel, if you are willing to compromise from your usual western day to day. You won`t be disappointed.
