forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 3.85 out of 5 (1,333 reviews). Guests praise the twin rooms as roomy enough to co-sleep with a child, and find the communal bath and the washing machine and dryer easy to use (500 yen to use the washer and dryer together). For preschool-age children, co-sleeping can carry an added charge of 1,100 yen depending on the child's age, so it is worth checking in advance. Some guests did feel that breakfast offered few dishes.
Overview
Post Hotel is a business hotel in Shinjo, Yamagata, a 3-minute walk from JR Shinjo Station. It has 50 rooms in total and provides a hinoki-wood communal bath and a Japanese-and-Western breakfast free of charge, and child rates are set for the double and twin rooms. There is only one communal bath, with a set bathing time for women, and a microwave can be used in some rooms with a reservation. Free parking for 30 cars is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Rooms
Rooms come in single, double and twin types, in both non-smoking and smoking versions, for 50 rooms in total. Singles use a semi-double bed and have a bath and toilet, for 1 guest. Doubles are 12.6 square meters with a king-size bed, a bath and a toilet, and twins are 16 square meters with semi-double beds, a bath and a toilet; both sleep 1 to 2 guests and have child rates set. Families should choose a double or a twin, as that is where the child rate applies. Wi-Fi is available in every room.
Dining
Breakfast is a Japanese and Western spread served as a small buffet, with free refills. Rice and miso soup can be refilled at no charge, and drinks are unlimited as well. The freshly made hot breakfast is provided free of charge. Dinner is not served.
Baths
The communal bath is a hinoki-wood bath, open from 6:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. and from 4 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. There is only one communal bath, and 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. is set aside as the women's bathing time. Since which gender may use it depends on the time of day, it is worth checking when your family can bathe before you arrive.
Family-Friendly Features
Child rates are set for the double and twin rooms. A microwave can be used in some rooms, with a reservation required, which comes in handy for warming baby food or milk. Because there is only one communal bath and the hours are split between men and women, please confirm when you can bathe with your child before your stay.
