Dude, at least make the effort to look at a travel guide. even if you don't buy one, just look at it, or look on the internet at local sites for tourists. Hokkaido is full of onsens, national parks and what's left of Ainu culture (museums, interactive village exhibits).

There are a ton of things I could recommend, but I don't know what your are interested in.

Why are you going to Hokkaido? Hokkaido is great and all, but domestic air travel is expensive, you could save a lot of money and do a lot more in Honshu.

4 days in Sapporo seems like a long time unless you are visiting friends there.

I loved Hokkaido, but couldn't fined anything interesting in Sapporo.

You aren't going to see much in Hokkaido in December but snow and ice. And it's difficult to see all of the sights there unless you rent a car.

My favorite hotel in Hakone is the Fujiya. Their rates are a little above your price range, but they might be lower in the winter time. They also offer a discount to foreigners. The Fujiya is one of Japan's oldest hotels; Helen Keller, Charlie Chaplin, and John Lennon have all been guests.
