Hi all, need your view recommendations.
I'm bringing my wife and 2 1/2 year old kid to Japan in Mid April.
Me and wife don't know which place to go.
The option is either Sapporo or Osaka.
Two places offers very different activities.
My pros and cons according to my view:
Sapporo:
Pros:
1. Quieter ( want to run away from the hustle and bustle of city)
2. Relaxing to walk around, slower pace.
3. A lot of nature site seeing
4. Maybe lucky to enjoy snow

Cons:
1. Food & accommodation maybe more expensive compared to Osaka
2. Language communication may be slightly more difficult in Sapporo.
3. Public transport may not be as accessible as Osaka

Osaka:
1. Food & accommodation more options and cheaper too.
2. Public transport is more accessible.
3. Huge aquarium park which is one of the largest in the world.

And the cons is the exact opposite of Sapporo Pros.

The rest of your pros and cons not really relevant, so just concentrate on these few. Osaka / Kyoto / Nara / Kobe area tends to be more cultural Japan (see temples, etc). Whichever you choose depends on these, end of the day we also can't decide for you.

For activities for your kid, Nara has deer walking around the temple and town area (not sure if he or she too young to appreciate)

Your Pro and Cons are no valid infront of me.
Sapporo public transport does not lose to Osaka at all. Entire Sapporo City are cover by Subway , Tram and Bus + Sightseeing bus. If you say Hokakido yes, not Sapporo.
Both cities also got cheap and splurge food, In Sapporo I can found seafood don as cheap as 500Yen which you cannot found entire Japan except Sapporo.
Accommodation are depends season. Overall Hokkaido hotel are cheaper than Osaka big city. Bigger the city more expensive the land value and more expensive the hotel price.
