Renting a flat in Sapporo

Sapporo is the capital of Hokkaido, a planned grid city with snowy winters and cool summers. Rents are low for a major Japanese city, and the subway and streetcar make car-free living practical.

Areas to look at

  • Odori: central park and shopping
  • Susukino: nightlife district
  • Maruyama: leafy, near the park and shrine
  • Sapporo Station: business area, transport hub

Local rules

  • Homes registered under the 2017 Private Lodging Business Act may host paying guests for up to 180 days a year; operating beyond that needs a hotel/inn licence or a special-zone permit. Local ordinances can restrict days further. (source, 2026)
