Toyoko Inn Sapporo Susukino Kosaten 東横INN札幌すすきの交差点 東橫INN北海道札幌薄野交叉點

Toyoko Inn Sapporo Susukino Crossing is a business hotel located right next to the famous Susukino Crossing—one of Sapporo’s busiest nightlife hubs. The hotel sits at Minami 4-jo Nishi 3-chome 4-1 in Chuo Ward and offers excellent access, just a one-minute walk from Susukino Station (Namboku Line, Exit 3) and Hosui-Susukino Station (Toho Line, Exit 2). From JR Sapporo Station, it is only one stop via the Namboku Line. Airport limousine buses from New Chitose Airport stop behind the hotel at the “Minami 3-jo” stop, and for the return trip, guests can board the airport bus directly from the hotel’s front side.

The interior follows Toyoko Inn’s signature style—bright, simple, and clean—with an emphasis on offering a “safe and comfortable” environment. The front desk operates 24 hours a day, with check-in available from 15:00 to 29:00 and check-out at 10:00. This makes early departures and late arrivals easy for both business and leisure travelers. Free Wi-Fi, a complimentary coffee service (during set hours), luggage storage, and area information are available around the lobby.

The hotel offers 393 guestrooms, including Single, Double, and Twin rooms—standard business-hotel layouts. All rooms are equipped with free Wi-Fi, wired LAN ports, a refrigerator, humidifying air purifier, desk, TV, and electric kettle, making them suitable for extended computer work or online meetings. While the hotel primarily operates as a non-smoking property, a limited number of smoking rooms and designated smoking areas are available for guests who need them.

A notable feature is the hotel’s 2022 renovation, which refreshed guestrooms and common areas for a newer, cleaner look. A dedicated pet-friendly floor was also introduced, allowing guests to stay with small dogs when booked through special plans (conditions apply). Since pet rooms are separated by floor, both pet owners and non-pet-using guests can enjoy comfortable stays.

Rooms come with standard Toyoko Inn amenities, including toothbrush sets, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, sleepwear, and slippers. In addition to paid VOD services, in-room TVs also display useful facility information such as breakfast crowd levels and coin laundry availability. Rooms feature a small safe and luggage space, making multi-night stays more convenient.

Breakfast is complimentary and served buffet-style from 6:30 to 9:00 in the first-floor dining area. The menu includes rice, miso soup, grilled fish, eggs, sausages, salads, breads, soups, and other staples, along with hotel-specific touches. Many guests comment positively on the quality of the breads and the overall variety, noting that the free breakfast provides more options than expected. The layout is designed for guests to dine quickly before heading out—ideal for business travelers.

Facilities include vending machines, a coin laundry (paid), microwave ovens, and an ice machine—practical for long stays. Laundry machine availability can be checked from the guestroom TV, making it easy to plan usage. Parking consists of a multilevel garage with 72 spaces, available on a first-come, first-served basis for a fixed fee per night (extra charges apply outside standard hours). Few hotels in central Susukino offer this many spaces, making it a convenient option for rental-car users.

As the name suggests, the hotel sits just steps from the Susukino Crossing, marked by the iconic Nikka Whisky neon sign. The area is dense with ramen shops, jingisukan restaurants, seafood izakaya, bars, and late-night eateries. Popular spots such as Tanukikoji Shopping Street, Nijo Market, Odori Park, and Sapporo TV Tower are all within walking distance. During the Snow Festival, both the Susukino and Odori venues are easily accessible on foot.

Because of its central location, the surrounding area is lively—especially on weekends and during events—making it ideal for guests who want to enjoy the city until late rather than those seeking a quiet environment. With its unbeatable convenience, clean rooms, essential amenities, and free breakfast, Toyoko Inn Sapporo Susukino Crossing is an excellent choice for travelers who want a simple, reliable base right in the heart of Susukino. It suits business trips, sightseeing, and event stays, functioning like a “base camp” in the middle of Sapporo’s most vibrant nightlife district.
