Smile Hotel Premium Sapporo Susukino スマイルホテル札幌すすきの南 札幌薄野南微笑酒店

Smile Hotel Sapporo Susukino South is a 123-room business hotel located in Minami 7-jo Nishi 1-chome, Chuo Ward. The nearest station is Hosui-Susukino Station on the Toho Line, just a 3-minute walk from Exit 6. It is also about an 8-minute walk from Susukino Station on the Namboku Line and within walking distance of Nakajima-Koen Station, placing the hotel between the Susukino and Nakajima Park areas. Access from New Chitose Airport is convenient via airport bus to the Susukino stop, followed by a 10-minute walk.

The entire hotel, including all guestrooms, is non-smoking, making it suitable for travelers who prefer a smoke-free environment, including families with children. The main room types are Double Rooms (approx. 14.9 m², 54 rooms) and Twin Rooms (approx. 17 m², 68 rooms), all Western-style. While there is no single-room category, Double Rooms can be used by solo travelers on business trips.

Guestroom amenities include a shower room (no bathtub), toilet with bidet, individual air conditioning, refrigerator, electric kettle, air purifier with humidifier, deodorizing spray, and Wi-Fi. Bathroom amenities include shampoo, conditioner, body soap, hand soap, body sponge, cotton swabs, toothbrush set, hairbrush, and razor. Roomwear, slippers, bath towels, and face towels are also provided. All rooms feature a rain shower, appealing to guests who prefer a simple, shower-only setup.

Double Rooms feature a 152 cm-wide double bed within 14.9 m², suitable for 1–2 guests. Twin Rooms come with two 100 cm-wide beds in approximately 17 m², ideal for friends or parents and children. All rooms have a bright, simple design, equipped with a desk and multiple outlets for convenient laptop work and device charging.

Breakfast is served as a Japanese–Western buffet on the first floor, offering more than 30 items. Freshly baked bread is especially popular, and Hokkaido-inspired dishes such as soup curry appear in the lineup. Breakfast hours are 6:30–9:30 (last entry 9:15), and the price is ¥1,200 (tax included). With daily variations, it is designed to remain enjoyable even during multi-night stays.

The hotel features enhanced security for both the entrance and elevators. From 23:00 to 6:00, the entrance is locked and accessible only by guests with a key card. The elevators also require a card key, preventing non-guests from entering guestroom floors—an appealing point for solo travelers and business guests who prioritize safety.

Shared facilities include vending machines, a coin laundry, and a microwave—useful for long stays or for heating takeaway meals. The entire hotel is covered by Wi-Fi, ensuring smooth internet access from both guest rooms and common areas.

Parking is available via a mechanical multistory structure on-site, limited to vehicles under 1.55 m in height, with space for 8 cars on a first-come, first-served basis (¥2,000 per night). Reservations are not accepted, so early arrival is recommended. Two nearby partner parking lots—Times Nakajima Park and Times Susukino 8.4—are available when on-site parking is full, with discounted overnight rates around ¥1,800. There are no dedicated motorcycle or bicycle parking spaces, so riders must use nearby paid lots.

The surrounding area offers excellent convenience, with many restaurants and convenience stores within a 5-minute walk. The Susukino intersection, Tanukikoji Shopping Street, and other popular spots are also within walking distance. At the same time, being slightly removed from the busiest part of Susukino allows for a quieter night’s rest.

Overall, Smile Hotel Sapporo Susukino South offers convenient access just 3 minutes from Hosui-Susukino Station, simple rooms equipped with rain showers, a 30-plus-item breakfast buffet, security-focused building access, and both on-site and partner parking options. It is a practical choice for both business and leisure travelers who want to stay near the Susukino–Nakajima Park area while prioritizing location, comfort, and functionality over extensive facilities.
