Hotel · Odori / Nishi 11-chome

One room sleeps up to 8Connecting rooms bookable3 min to station

A dedicated Superior Connecting Room category with an interior door joins two 21m2 rooms and officially sleeps up to four adults plus four young children, so a family books one guaranteed connected space rather than hoping for adjacency.

The Superior Connecting Room (14F-16F) is officially bookable for up to 8 guests.

Worth knowing: It is a tall city tower hotel with no kitchen or in-room laundry confirmed on the official page, so it suits short sightseeing stays more than self-catering.
