Experience of the stay
Four reasons why I was really glad to stay at OMO Sapporo:
1. It's moderately distant from the downtown area but still conveniently close to Susukino.
2. The OMO base on the 1st floor is a café and light snack corner that sells various Hokkaido sweets, local gourmet foods, drinks, and goods. The self-checkout (electronic checkout) was convenient, allowing me to eat on the spot or take it back to my room.
Additionally, there were plenty of seats provided, creating a relaxing space.
3. The twin room was very stylish. The shower featured overhead spraying with high pressure, making for a very comfortable shower. I enjoyed my solo trip thoroughly.
4. The neighborhood map at the front desk of OMO included QR codes, offering details and locations of various shops, which was extremely helpful.
Experiences during the trip
I hadn't been to Sapporo since I was a university student 26 years ago. This solo trip to Hokkaido is a tribute to that visit 26 years ago.
It was my first time visiting in summer and I was surprised by the coolness, which is different from Tokyo. Despite the summer season, it didn't feel like summer at all; it was cool and comfortable. Moreover, Odori Park was beautiful and spacious, with magnificent scenery that I could enjoy for a long time.
The nearby Kamimura Farm and KINOTOYA café were fantastic. The signature Omurice parfait at KINOTOYA was unbelievably delicious. The milk and yogurt from Kamimura Farm were also delicious. The space was spacious, stylish, and the seating was very comfortable.
The soup curry at Carrots III in Susukino was incredibly delicious, and it was fun to interact with the owner and staff. The peach parfait from the night parfait specialty shop I visited afterward was also exceptionally delicious.
The food in Hokkaido is truly amazing.
I only visited limited places in Sapporo, but it was a city that I could enjoy even alone.
I definitely want to visit Sapporo again.
