Hotels in Sapporo for Feb.

I already have plane tickets booked for me and some friends, planning on visiting Sapporo during the snow festival. However, I'm having some trouble finding any hotels with vacancies. Is there any hotels that someone could recommend, or more places to search? I have tried some sites such as asiarooms.com, but with not very much luck. Budget is not a huge issue, availability is the biggest thing that I'm worried about.

Thanks in advance!

Try to search "Toyoko Inn", or "Rakuten Travel English". The sites still show vacancies at various hotels in Sapporo City in the Snow Festival period. Please be reminded that the last day, 11th Feb is a public holiday in Japan, so you might want to avoid the weekend if possible.
Wish your good luck.
