Waya

4.5(172 reviews)

About

Waya serves Hokkaido from its address at 4 Chome-1-43 Toyohira 2 Jo, Toyohira Ward, Sapporo, Hokkaido 062-0902, Japan, a hostel in the island's largest city. Guests have given it a 4.5 out of 5 average across 172 reviews, a strong record for a hostel in Sapporo.

Reaching the hostel from the main towns is straightforward, since Sapporo anchors Hokkaido's transport network and Hakodate, Otaru, Furano, Niseko, Asahikawa, Kushiro and Abashiri all connect to the wider island. The business operates as a hostel, with its website, http://waya-gh.com/, providing further reference for travellers planning a stay. Its location in Toyohira Ward places it within Sapporo's residential grid, south of the city centre.

Japanese islands lie on the Pacific Ring of Fire and see frequent earthquakes and volcanic activity, a fact worth keeping in mind when travelling through Hokkaido. Most Japanese islands have a rainy season, tsuyu, from around June to mid-July, so packing accordingly helps.

Japanese macaques, also called snow monkeys, live in the wild on several Japanese islands, giving visitors a reason to explore beyond the city. Shoguns ruled Japan under a feudal system until the Meiji Restoration of 1868, a history that still shapes the country's cultural landmarks.
