Sapporo—the cultural and economic heart of Hokkaido—is a place where the glory of nature blends with city life. The hotel offers an escape from the everyday thanks to the magnificent atrium design and the high-rise tower, affording a 360-degree panoramic view over the beauties of each season despite the city-center location. Within walking distance are Odori Park, venue for Sapporo Snow Festival and Lilac Festival and host to beer gardens in the summer, as well as the Tanukikoji shopping street with its history of over 145 years.
