What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Inside, it’s a maximalist-chic exercise in arches, sumptuous upholstery, and subtly steampunk furnishings.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set in Sosei East's red-brick Sapporo Factory complex, the hotel sits an easy stroll from Odori Park and the television tower.
The rooms
Japanese-Western interiors feature deep green wall paneling, whisper-quiet layouts, and deep soaking bathtubs paired with separate walk-in showers.
The gym
Technogym cardio machines and free weights line a dark green wood-paneled fitness room open around the clock.
Restaurant
Barley Grill & Bar
Beneath groin-vaulted arches, the dining room serves seasonal Hokkaido seafood, local meats, and breakfast with sparkling wine.
At the table
The bar lounge pours Kaitakushi craft beer, regional Hokkaido wines, and Japanese whiskies beside a copper brewing-kiln fireplace.
How it began
Built on the historic grounds of the pioneering Meiji-era Kaitakushi Brewery, the property reimagines a nineteenth-century industrialist estate.
