The Mercure Sapporo opened last week with a ceremony presided over by the Regional General Manager Accor Japan and the hotel owner.
The 285 room hotel is strategically located in the centre of Sapporo, flanked by hundreds of restaurants, bars and entertainment facilities in Susukino and the Sapporo Kokusai Ski slopes are just one hour away.
A great base for leisure and business travellers alike, the hotel is a few minutes walk to the central business district, the famous Sapporo TV Tower landmark, where the world famous Sapporo Snow & Ice Festival is organised every year.
The Mercure Sapporo General Manager says “The hotel is now delivering a blend of fine Japanese and French hospitality, that the Mercure brand has become know for in Japan. The interior design of the hotel compliments our approach to service. The guest rooms were designed by renowned French interior designer Isabelle Miaja and are a fusion French style motifs and textures combines with Japanese accents.”
The hotel also has a “ladies floor” appealing to the ever increasing number of female travellers. The rooms on these floors features L’Occitane bathroom amenities, fashion magazines and body pillow. This concept started with the Mercure Hotel Ginza in Tokyo and has proven very popular.
Moreover, “Bordeaux”, Mercure Sapporo’s restaurant serves French Cuisine with a selection of signature dishes created by the hotel’s head chef Taisuke Hara. The hotel also provides the “Grand Vins Mercure” wine list, enabling guests to select a wine to suit their tastes and mood, with wines from all corners of the globe.
