Arura Sapporo - Hostel

Excellent and friendly staffman

Well located, friendly staff, clean, and even A/C on a hot day.

Location is perfect. Near the park and it is convenient going everywhere. It is quiet in the night. Room is also spacious.

Hostel was much better than I expected. Spacious, plenty of room in the refrigerator (which for some reason is often an issue at hostels), thoughtfully set up shower area and laundry and toilets. Microwave and fridge in the quiet common area upstairs in addition to same plus kettle downstairs was welcome, and surprising, and I really liked. Privacy curtains for all bunks, yay, with individual lights, electric outlets, small shelf for phones etc. This place has been set up with a lot of care and attention to detail. Location is a quiet neighborhood near the park. Pricing was VERY high because of the Arashi tour, more for this one night than the entire rest of my vacation. But I was able to book a place to sleep for the night, so yay.

Best stay, experience and host I could have asked for. Nathan and Matthew are fantastic

10m walk to the station, which is a few stops away from the central station Very clean for a hostel Everyone has a locker Towels provided Chance to meet other travellers, although some travellers are very quiet so it depends on the person The kitchen is for staff so you won't be able to cook full meals here, but you have access to a microwave and toaster

Walkable distances to main tourist areas 20-30 minutes, 6 minutes to the subway No dryer, it’s cold so my clothes didn’t air dry in time

Clean, cozy, and in a great location. The host was friendly and helpful. The space was a bit small, but still comfortable.

everything was good ^^

Beds were superbly comfortable. The owner is incredibly chill and nice guy. Never had to wait for shower or facilities. Drying clothes was hard, but the owner is actually building a new drying contraption to assist with this! He’s a real legend for that

A bit far out, coming from metro in snow with luggage is challenging but worth the effort for an affordable and welcoming stay.

everything is so cozy and clean. because of that you feel at home and just wanna hang out at the lobby! also the owner was so kind and accomodating, definitely gonna book again. also the good was so cute

Clean, comfortable beds, close to lawsons and train station. Owners very friendly and helpful. Nice area for socializing. One of my favorite hostels ive stayed at

Really comfortable, nice neighbourhood, really hospitable owner

Comfortable beds, quiet neighborhood and friendly relaxed atmosphere in this wonderful hostel! Its right next to a large Park, so when leaving the windows open I've been waking up to the sound of birds. Also it's very conveniently located next to the metro station, and the nightlife district of susukino is easily walkable. Special shout out to Nathan the owner, who has been extremely friendly and makes every effort to accommodate his guests! Cheers mate!! Thanks for the great stay :)

Very cozy vibes, free towels and good amenities. Staff was super friendly The property was wonderful, I was a little surprised that coed meant sharing a room with both genders but there wasn’t much of an issue

You will find joy in everything; it truly feels like home.

Definitely good for the price. Nothing

The beds were super comfortable and I was impressed that the bathroom and common area were stocked with almost everything needed. The staff couldn’t be more friendly and kind. I have my go to place to stay at when I come back to Sapporo! For a hostel it was very clean but there is definitely room for improvement on some of the cleaning in the bathroom. Really can’t complain though!

Good
