    Not much of interest in the immediate vicinity. The exception being the botanical gardens virtually across the street.

    Really quiet area & super quiet in my room which is my #1 priority Close to JR station Close to bus stop to Asahikawa Onsen was good Breakfast (an extra not included in the tariff) was really good Good wifi

    Lack of late-night food establishments, but again, that's because it's located in a quiet neighborhood. Do the homework and get some food before going back to the hotel, and you won't have a problem.

    Staff is very helpful...10 min walk from Sapporo Station....In-house hot spring available almost around the clock, and best of all it's quiet. If you are into party atmosphere, this may not be the place.

    The tatami beds and the table in the room were all at floor level and both of us had difficulty getting up after our rest. Also the Ryokan uses physical keys to the room and whenever we request for our key, the duty staff at the reception just handed us the key without asking for our names for verification.

    The onsen was good. Had the entire rub to myself.

    the tv is not working but I don't care.

    Got my own room but it's more like a little apartment without kitchen. Very spacious for 1 person. Would be perfect for 2. Very clean and quiet.

    The only thing we thought could be better is we would randomly be disconnected from the wifi. We were told in advance the coverage wouldn't be good in part of the room, but even in the good half sometimes we couldn't find the signal. That is not a problem with people though, more of a technical thing.

    The room was spacious and pretty, while maintaining a rustic charm. Listed as big enough for four people, and that seems right. Good sized private tub, too. Fit a plus-sized body rather well. Provided hot and cold water pitchers, too. The orange thermos one was AWESOME at keeping water hot. The staff was also very nice. Showed us to our room and helped bring in our bags, and also remembered who we were when we came to pick our key back up after being out. We had a small chat with the cleaners one morning, too.

    Coming here after a 10-day campervan trip was more just than a relief in comfiness. The staff was extra helpful with organizing a taxi for our the early morning departure from Chitose airport. Altough we did not manage to have dinner at Nakamuraya, we totally enjoyed ourserlves in their bathing space. Truely a recommendation if you're staying in Sapporo and are looking for a rather traditional place!

    This hotel is a very respectable establishment. I went in with my brother for a traditional living experience and we were not disappointed. The staff had limited English, but we were able to understand thru the translate app. They were friendly and accommodating to our needs. For the value, this was exceptional.

    We had a wonderful night here - slept like a baby and loved the shared bathroom - it was great being able to use it still quite late at night. We enjoyed the location, between Sapporo Station and the lively popular shopping and bar area. Overall a wonderful experience and would stay here again if we were to return to Sapporo.

    Apple Maps routed my group to behind the property: it was hard to find especially because all the pictures were during the non snowy season. With all the snow it was hard to recognize the front of the property. Also the bathroom was a little bit too cramped for my liking and, there was a gap between the bathtub and toilet that was a little bit gross, but also endearing in a weird, lived in home kind of way.

    I liked the ambience and feeling of the ryokan. It very much reminded me of a traditional Japanese inn, it is one after all. The room itself was spacious with some nice amenities in the form of water (both hot and cold), futons laid out already, and it came with yukata for the guests to wear. It was located in a very nice location; about a 7-10 minute walk from Sapporo station. The entrance to the room was very nice; it felt like a miniature Japanese apartment more than anything. Breakfast was very value at ¥1000 per person, and it was delicious.

    This was our first ryokan experience and we were so glad it was at Nakamuraya Ryokan. The staff were lovely and we were able to make do with our minimal Japanese and their much better English. The rooms were beautiful and the futons were comfy. The breakfast and dinner were extraordinary, with very generous portion sizes. Everything about our experience was exceptional and I hope we can come back one day!
