Business Inn Norte

Very good

Good value for money and great breakfast

Elevator’s noise

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room is basic and the bed is firm like most Japanese beds. The room even had a small table and two chairs. The breakfast was fine and had both Western and Japanese options. We would prefer a slightly softer bed.

Location, facilities Bed size , breakfast

Location is very convenient, 5 mins walk to Nakajimakoen station, and walking distance to town (Susukino/Odori Park). Breakfast is very simple but okay for the price. Toiletries, heater and basic necessities were free. No free parking if you're renting a car but overnight park is about RM40 which is still acceptable. Not quite sure about the laundry service they didn't mention upon check in. No room housekeeping but they do hang new towels outside your door everyday.

Exceptional

A Kafkaesque Check-in Experience: Where Your Credit Card Goes to Die Checking into this hotel was like stepping into a surrealist nightmare where logic and reason were strictly forbidden. The front desk staff operated with the efficiency of a broken fax machine and the confidence of a magician pulling a rabbit out of an empty hat. After handing over my passport and attempting to pay, I was treated to a live performance of “How Not to Use a Credit Card Terminal”, starring an employee who pushed random buttons like a toddler trying to hack into the Pentagon. Seven failed attempts later, his boss swooped in, armed with neither English nor technical skills, to inform me that my MasterCard was not actually a MasterCard. Ah yes, the age-old financial conspiracy where banks issue counterfeit MasterCards just to baffle underqualified hotel staff. When I pointed at their own payment board, where the MasterCard logo was clearly displayed, she doubled down—insisting my card was an imposter. I half-expected a dramatic reveal where she would rip off my MasterCard’s disguise to expose it as a Visa all along. Then came the pièce de résistance: after blaming my bank, my card, and possibly the alignment of the planets, they casually processed a different guest’s MasterCard without issue. At this point, a kind bilingual traveler intervened, and I finally deciphered (through Google Translate) that the machine had been rejecting the payment due to a missing PIN code. A simple problem with a simple solution—except, of course, nobody at the front desk knew how to enable PIN entry. After another round of frantic translating, I operated their own payment terminal for them and successfully paid. The entire ordeal took over half an hour—30 minutes of my life that I will never get back, spent in the twilight zone of bureaucratic incompetence. Final verdict? If you enjoy watching employees make up alternative financial theories instead of admitting they don’t know how their own machines

Passable

Great location, about 3 mins walk to subway line. Good breakfast and free welcome drinks. Wi-Fi can be improved.

Everything is good

It is quite near Nakajimakoen Station. It is 3 subway stops away from Sapporo Station. If you have luggage, then use the elevator at Exit 1 of Nakajimakoen Station. Hotel facilities include coin laundry. The convenience stores are about 5 to 10 min walk away.

Proximity to nakajima park The beds and bathroom were very small for a person over 5' 10" tall.

Convenient place Nothing special

The location is nice. .... Um........ It's also close to a pretty good raman restaurant. ........ That's about all I can think of. One of the worst hotels I've ever stayed at. Ever, not just in Japan. I paid extra for a non-smoking room, but when I arrived they gave me the one single non-smoking room on a smoking floor. It smelled awful. When I asked to move, the room they chose absolutely reaked like old man stink. It's like the cleaning crew has never heard of マジックリン spray.
