The best hotels in Hokkaido

Every hotel on this page shows its own distance and walking time on its full review. Check the map too — the nearest hotel by metres is not always the nearest by gate.

Longer than the walk in. Crowd exits, road closures and queues at transport hubs all add time, so a hotel you can walk back to is worth more than a short taxi ride.

The same ones that suit a match: close enough to walk, and quiet enough to sleep once the crowd has gone. Guest reviews are the best guide to the second part.

Parking is listed where confirmed, but event-day restrictions often override normal arrangements. Check with the hotel whether their spaces are usable on event days.

Late services vary by city and by event. Check the operator's own timetable for your date rather than the standard schedule, and have a walking route as a fallback.

Sometimes, and it is the thing guests mention most. The full review distils what visitors actually said, and quieter rooms are usually away from the main approach.

Somewhere you can walk back to easily, with a room that is quiet afterwards. Family rooms and occupancy limits are listed where confirmed.

Start with walking distance to the right side of the venue, then compare noise, parking and cancellation terms across two or three full reviews.
