Located in Nakafurano, within 8.1 km of Furano Station and 13 km of Windy Garden, Other Side House provides accommodation with barbecue facilities and free WiFi throughout the property as well as free private parking for guests who drive. Built in 1999, this 1-star hostel is within 8.4 km of Furano City Office and 18 km of Furano Golf Course. The property is non-smoking and is situated 47 km from Kaguraoka Park. We really enjoyed having the entire floor to ourselves, which included three bedrooms and a dining area. This layout was perfect for our group's needs. The location was ideal, being close to Farm Tomita, a key stop on our Hokkaido summer trip. A delightful and unexpected bonus was discovering the illuminations at Hinode Park nearby, which turned out to be the highlight of our stay

Featuring a shared lounge, this 2-star hostel has air-conditioned rooms with a shared bathroom. The property is 1.9 km from Sapporo Station, and within 100 metres of the city centre. The location is amazing, it’s super close to the downtown area but on a smaller side street so you don’t hear traffic. As well the bed is way more comfortable than I was expecting, I was kinda expecting the thin hostel mat you get in Japan pretty often but this one is a mattress so I was extremely happy.
