Super cute hotel conviently located by lots of shops and resturant. The beer gardens where a quick 5 min walk the former government building was a ten min walk Sapporo station: shopping center was a 24 min walk. Breakfast was delicious. The Morzatella and tomatoes bread!

Awful awful awful. Nothing positive to say about my stay. Very gimmicky. I heard great things about this hotel but was sorely disappointed during my stay. The room’s AC unit was installed backwards, meaning all the air was blowing into the bathroom. It was difficult to keep the room a comfortable temperature. The staff were miserable. Had an awful experience when I used their washing machine. Put my clothes in, the timer said 60 minutes for the wash cycle, I’d have to manually do the dry cycle afterwards. That was enough time to run to the close convenience store for a drink and lunch. Came back 64 minutes later and my clothes were gone, a note on the EMPTY washing machine that my clothes were removed because someone else wanted to use the machine. I understand I was late but FOUR MINUTES?! My clothes were tossed in a trash bag left on the counter for everyone to see my personal items. How embarrassing. The staff didn’t even want to give me my clothes because “they couldn’t prove they were mine” and wanted to begin laying out each article. What the f***?!?! In a public cafe setting, you want me to display my wet underwear for all to see?! I grabbed the bag with my wet clothes and went directly to my room What a genuinely horrifying experience. I would never ever recommend such a scummy place to anyone.

- the book cafe was unique and its coffee was delicious. did not get to try their food options but i have no doubt they would be good given that they were always sold out.
- restaurants and shopping are all within walking distance

I absolutely loved my stay at Lamp Light Books Hotel in Sapporo over the past two and a half weeks! The room was cozy and clean, the staff was incredibly helpful, and the cafe was a perfect spot to get some work done in the mornings. I was also thrilled that they had 3 combo washer/dryer machines in the hotel, however my clothes smelled a bit soiled after washing so I’m wondering if the staff needs to add more detergent in them. Regardless, the location was perfect and I really enjoyed my time in Sapporo!

My husband and I booked Lamp Light Books Hotel Sapporo as part of our stay in Sapporo as part of our honeymoon trip. Unfortunately because of the snow storm, our flight from Tokyo to Sapporo was cancelled. Thankfully the staff at Lamp Light Books Hotel were very understanding and accomodating and offered to refund our booking. We will definitely book next time we are back in Sapporo. Thank you!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is excellent nearby all the shops and restaurant's on the major shopping street. The breakfast was good and the amenities provided in the room were nice, as well as the availability of a laundry machine room on the first floor. Definitely recommend this hotel with a cool concept -- book cafe on the first floor.

The room was clean and relatively spacious. Pajamas were provided. Certain amenities (such as toothbrush, toothpaste, comb) were available at the front desk instead of in the room. In addition, the hotel is conveniently located at the end of Tanukikoji Shopping Street (狸小路商店街) where it is close to the subway and walking distance from many Sapporo attractions (e.g., Sapporo Clock Tower, Odori Park). They also have luggage storage available which was helpful after check-out. We had a great stay here!

Pleasant stay

The room is very small but clean and modern. The hotel is located on the quieter end of Tanukikoji, which is a shopping and eating area. The lobby of the hotel is a cafe with a lending library. The breakfast is a set menu of an open faced sandwich, soup of the day, and a choice of drink. We enjoyed our stay mostly due to the location

Really excellent location. My daughter and I walked around all times of the day from early mornings to late at night, and it was very safe. Endless things to see and do within a 20 minute walk. The cafe downstairs is convenient (about the only place open in the mornings other than 7-11) if you are adapting to some jet lag and find yourself up at the crack of dawn. Very friendly staff, the whole city was incredibly kind and welcoming. The bathroom and shower with tub were 10/10 for cleaning off the summer sweat or soaking off sore travel tension. Fair warning - the double twin room is TINY, and I live in a tiny home and I’m used to living small, but I mean really small… hard for a couple of small people with light luggage to set down stuff. But, with so much to do we were hardly there, so it wasn’t too much of a worry! Highly recommend this spot for a few nights in Sapporo.

Pretty good place

The hotel is in an very good downtownlocation and the staff were helpful. The rooms are well designed and eye pleasing but the rooms are petit. They discourage you from sitting in the lobby (without first buying something to eat or drink)which is a shame. Also, the lobby furnishings need to be upholstered. But, all in all, a pretty good place to stay in Sapporo.

Really convenient (on the main shopping street).

Room is a little small compared to western hotels but I'm told this is pretty standard in metro Japan.

Laundry became a little bit of an issue as there was only 3 laundry machines and you had to be lucky to find one available.

The location definitely safe our experience. Room was very small so I would recommend if you have big luggages not to get the standard room. I found they over complicate things in order to just have housekeeping change linens etc. Everything is mostly self service, so guess you're getting what you're paying exactly.

I visited in February 2025. The hotel is situated above a book-themed cafe which is an interesting concept but the book theme doesn't really make it into the guest rooms so much aside from a book or two lining the shelves. I had a double room which was actually quite small but the room and facilities are generally clean. It was nice to have on-site laundry. The location is very convenient from a shopping and restaurant standpoint as it's at the end of a busy shopping arcade - the good news is that it's at the end of the street so it wasn't particularly crowded. A couple things to note: 1) if you'd like to sit in the cafe area (open 24 hours), you are required to order a coffee, even if you're a guest of the hotel and 2) the cafe is open to the public until midnight I believe. One thing that would've been nice that I found every other hotel I stayed at in Japan included were a couple of free bottles of water each day - nothing a short trip to the konbini can't solve, but a nice gesture. Overall, a pleasant enough stay at a fairly basic hotel.

Cute Cafe-Hotel

Cute hotel in a convenient area. Went to the Snow Festival and it wasn’t too far away. We didn’t take advantage of the books or the cafe but the food looked tasty and a range of books to choose from in different languages. It’s a little icy out during this time so be careful out there ;)

The Lamplight hotel had great staff and a lovely cafe on the ground floor. Room was small but efficient - space for luggage and lots of bathroom counter space. Only suggestion is to add a few extra hooks for hanging towels in the bathroom.
Easy self checkout via machine, except it said I only returned one card after having inserted two. Presumably not an issue, just annoying when technology doesn’t work as intended.
We didn’t do breakfast at the hotel, but it looked tasty (and busy!). Considering how lovely the Susukino area is and this famous shopping street, the hotel was very safe any quiet. Would recommend to travelers!

Quiet, cute hotel located in bustling shopping street in Sapporo. Although the rooms feel small (as expected in Japan), the design makes the most of the space available. The bathroom is also very large and has a big bathtub —great for cold Sapporo nights. A bit of a walk from public transport, but you won’t need it as your in walking distance of many restaurants and nightlife. Best place to unwind after a long day exploring the city.

Super impressed. Very clean, good amenities, good use of a small space. Bathroom was not one of those uncomfortable unit baths and relatively big compared to many boutique hotels. Books and cozy lounge a great plus. Easy to check in and out. Great discounts during quiet season. Located in the roof covered arcade. At the end of the arcade which makes it even better because it is less noisy.

Really like how it is conveniently located along Tanuki Koji, and within walking distance to Odori and Susukino stations. Added perks of borrowing books from the little library, with interesting and wide collection of books (though mainly in Japanese). Would be better if the room is less dusty and if the bathroom has more hooks, or shelves that makes it more practical for use, considering the space limitations.

While I never had a chance to grab a cup of coffee, the hotel's lobby doubles as a cute book cafe! The staff are super friendly and helpful--truly appreciated that they made a local call for me to my next stay in Noboribetsu as I only have data service on my phone. It's located at one end of the Tanuki-kōji Shopping Street and just minutes from Susukino so you have your pick of the litter in terms of amazing food and shopping. Loved my stay and will definitely check to see if they're available the next time I'm in Sapporo!

The hotel is beautiful. I’ve stayed in hotels all over Japan and it does seem like these hotels that cater to a younger generation tend to be raising the level of standards for “3 star hotels.” It’s in a stellar location near bars, tons of restaurants, and nightlife while still being quiet and private enough to enjoy a night’s sleep. It’s walking distance to Sapporo Station (about 20-25 minutes), as well as lots of famous spots that Sapporo is known for. If I had any complaint is that parking is very expensive around this area.
The breakfast was delicious. I expected boring bread but their selection and each bread that they had knocked me out of the water. Their latte! Their latte! So delicious, so smooth. Their selection of books was great too.

Will definitely stay here again next time I’m in Sapporo.

However, I didn't like the lack of sunlight our room had because the only window in our room was directly infront another building.
The check-in app was a bit confusing if you have limited Japanese, I prefer the normal way of checking in.
I didn't understand how the breakfast coupons worked? I wish I could have just bought the breakfast normally.
