ベストステイ 札幌マンスリーアパート
Coliving
Beststay is a Sapporo-based apartment agency specialising in furnished monthly rentals aimed at digital nomads, foreign residents, visiting scholars, and long-term travellers.

Stays can be as short as one month, making it well-suited for nomads testing out Sapporo or working on a Hokkaido project.
Properties are spread across Sapporo's central wards and are searchable by subway and JR line.

Featured units cluster around the Odori, Susukino, and Sapporo Station corridors. Each apartment comes fully furnished with appliances, kitchenware, and high-speed Wi-Fi. Utility bills are included in the rent, so the monthly cost is fixed with no surprises.
The agency is English-friendly and reachable via LINE, WhatsApp, WeChat, and Messenger. Office hours are Monday to Friday 10:00-19:00 and weekends 10:00-18:00. The booking process starts with a property request form on the website, after which the team matches you with available units. Solo travellers, couples, and families with larger space needs are catered for with studio to 3LDK options.

About Sapporo
Sapporo is Hokkaido's capital and Japan's fifth-largest city, known for its livable grid layout, craft beer scene, and dramatic four-season climate. The city centre is anchored by Odori Park and Sapporo Station, linked by three subway lines (Namboku, Toho, and Tozai) that make getting around car-free straightforward. For nomads, Sapporo offers lower costs than Tokyo, a growing cafe and coworking scene, and easy day-trip access to the mountains, ski resorts, and national parks of Hokkaido.
