Overview
Late dinners are part of the appeal. Holiday Inn Express Sapporo Susukino opened in July 2026 in Sapporo-Susukino, five minutes on foot from Susukino Station. Breakfast is included, and the 223 rooms are backed by straightforward self-service facilities rather than full-service extras.
Rooms
Rooms range from 15 to 30 square metres, with queen, twin, and twin-plus-bunk layouts. The bunk-bed option stands out for families and small groups, while the standard queen and twin rooms are designed for one or two guests.
Expect a compact, functional setup with Wi-Fi and a desk. If you need more floor space, an accessible room, or the bunk-bed layout, confirm the exact category before booking.
Facilities
A fitness room, self-service laundry, and luggage storage cover the everyday essentials. Laundry is handy on a longer Hokkaido trip, but there is no pool, spa, or broad leisure programme to keep guests in the building.
Dining
The included Japanese and Western breakfast buffet runs from 6:30 to 10:30, with a takeaway option for early starts. Coffee and snacks are available in the first-floor public space.
This isn't a hotel built around destination dining. That matters less in Susukino, where restaurants, bars, and late-night food draw many visitors to the neighbourhood.
Location and transport
Susukino Station on the Namboku Line is about five minutes away on foot. Trains reach Sapporo Station in roughly seven minutes, so JR connections are manageable, though the journey still involves a subway ride and a transfer into the JR station.
Shiseikan-Shogakko-mae streetcar stop is about three minutes away. The streetcar serves destinations southwest of the central subway grid, while the Namboku Line is simpler for Odori and Sapporo Station.
Airport access
For New Chitose Airport, take the Namboku Line to Sapporo Station and transfer to JR's Rapid Airport service. The JR portion can take as little as 33 minutes, but that isn't the door-to-door time. Allow for the walk, subway ride, transfer, and waiting time.
The hotel doesn't operate an airport shuttle. Travellers with several bags may prefer a taxi for part of the journey, while driving is less straightforward because on-site parking is limited.
Why stay here
Dinner and late-night entertainment are close, and included breakfast makes the following morning easier. The tradeoff becomes clear when early JR departures or the simplest possible airport transfer matter more than nightlife, since a hotel beside Sapporo Station removes the subway leg.
COCONO SUSUKINO brings shopping, dining, entertainment, and a cinema together at the main intersection. Nearby, the covered Tanukikoji Shopping Arcade provides another long stretch of shops and restaurants.
Good to know
Check-in begins at 15:00, and check-out is at 11:00. On-site parking costs JPY 2,000 per day and is limited to 25 spaces, including one accessible space. There is no complimentary local shuttle.
Book the bunk-bed or accessible category explicitly if you need it. Both are limited, and a standard room won't provide the same layout.
