Grand Mercure Sapporo Odori Park グランドメルキュール札幌大通公園 札幌大通公園美爵酒店

Grand Mercure Sapporo Odori Park is a high-rise city hotel located in North 1 West 11, Chuo Ward, Sapporo. It is just a few minutes’ walk from Odori Park and about three minutes on foot from Nishi-Juitchome Station on the Tozai Subway Line. JR Sapporo Station is roughly a five-minute taxi ride away, making the area convenient for both sightseeing and business stays.

The property was originally built in 1992 and reopened in April 2024 under the Grand Mercure brand. Situated within walking distance of Odori Park, the Hokkaido Museum of Modern Art, and the Botanical Garden, the hotel offers a calm environment despite being in the city center. The lobby and public spaces feature marble accents, and rooms on higher floors offer sweeping views of Sapporo’s skyline and the seasonal scenery below.

All rooms offer at least 24 square meters of space, starting with the Classic Double at 24 sqm. Twin and Queen rooms range from 30–32 sqm, and larger options such as Junior Suites and a 120-sqm Deluxe Suite are also available. Superior Twin rooms accommodating up to six guests, as well as rooms suitable for three to five guests, make the hotel a practical choice for solo travelers, families, and groups.

Some rooms are designed for triple or quadruple occupancy, and even with an extra bed added, the layout remains comfortable. All rooms come equipped with Wi-Fi, a safe, refrigerator, and electric kettle—amenities that support both leisure and business use. The hotel positions itself as a “premium retreat within urban Sapporo,” balancing comfort and practicality for diverse guest needs.

The first-floor buffet restaurant, Le Sensoriel, serves a breakfast buffet featuring local Hokkaido ingredients and dishes inspired by Sapporo’s culinary traditions. Alongside breads and Japanese selections, guests can enjoy customizable mini hot dogs, pancakes, and other made-to-order items. A special collaboration menu with the popular Sapporo soup curry restaurant GARAKU is a distinctive highlight. Smoothies and sparkling wine are also available during breakfast hours, creating a relaxed, hotel-style morning experience.

Le Sensoriel also functions as a guest lounge with unique time-based services. From 15:00 to 19:00, the “Ragu / Evening Social” offers a selection of wines, beer, coffee, tea, and herbal water—an ideal spot to unwind after check-in. From 21:00 to 23:00, it transforms into “Chotto / Night Cap,” a late-evening lounge serving light Hokkaido-style snacks alongside drinks (service ends at 22:30).

Beyond the restaurant and lounge, the hotel features one of the largest convention halls and meeting room complexes in Sapporo. It is designed to accommodate large-scale events such as academic conferences, concerts, and corporate functions, making it well-suited for MICE demand.

In terms of access, the hotel is about a three-minute walk from Nishi-Juitchome Station and around five minutes by taxi from JR Sapporo Station. Airport shuttle buses from New Chitose Airport also stop directly in front of the hotel, which is especially convenient during winter or when traveling with large luggage. For guests with cars, the property connects to a large underground parking facility that accommodates several hundred vehicles (first-come, first-served; details on the official website).

Odori Park, the Sapporo Clock Tower, and the TV Tower are all within walking distance, and it is easy to reach the Susukino entertainment district or the Sapporo Central Wholesale Market by subway, streetcar, or taxi. The hotel is also within walking distance of the Sapporo Snow Festival venues. It is a fitting choice for travelers who want to enjoy city sightseeing yet prefer a quieter place to unwind at night. With refreshed guest rooms, upgraded public spaces, thoughtful lounge offerings, and a well-regarded breakfast, Grand Mercure Sapporo Odori Park provides an enhanced and comfortable stay experience in the heart of the city.
