Yokote Central Hotel
forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.29 out of 5 (1,875 reviews). Some families report that an extra bed was available so their three children could each sleep separately, and that the breakfast buffet had dishes such as udon and fruit yogurt that satisfied their children. Several guests also mention the free curry rice served in the evening, which helped with dinner when traveling with children. On the other hand, some guests felt the lack of a communal bath for women was a drawback.

Overview
Yokote Central Hotel is a city hotel in Yokote, Akita, about 10 minutes by car from the Yokote IC on the Akita Expressway and about an 18-minute walk from JR Yokote Station. Of its 6 room types, the Japanese-style tatami room uses futon bedding and is popular with families traveling with children. Breakfast is a Japanese, Western and Chinese buffet, free for children who have not yet started elementary school (ages 6 and under) and 1,200 yen for elementary school children. The communal bath is for men only, so women and children normally bathe in the bathroom in their room.
Rooms
There are 6 room types: Single, Deluxe Single, Double, Twin, Deluxe Twin and Japanese-style tatami room. The Single is 13.4 sq m with one semi-double bed 120 cm wide, and the Deluxe Single is 15.0 sq m with the same 120 cm semi-double bed. The Double is 16.6 sq m with a bed 140 cm wide, suiting couples as well as a parent and child. The Twin is 25.4 sq m with two single beds 110 cm wide, and the Deluxe Twin is 28.5 sq m with the same bed arrangement; both can take 3 guests if the sofa is made up as a bed. The Japanese-style tatami room is 30.1 sq m (10 tatami mats) with tatami and futon bedding, and the hotel describes it as a room where there is no worry about a child falling out of bed. Every room has an air purifier with a humidifying function, and the refrigerator is provided empty for guests to use freely (you need to switch it on when you start using it). On plans that include booking multiple rooms, adjoining rooms may be guaranteed (on those plans only).
Dining
Breakfast is a Japanese, Western and Chinese buffet at Restaurant Chambord on the 1st floor. It is served from 6:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. on weekdays, with last entry at 8:30 a.m., and from 6:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. on weekends and public holidays, with last entry at 9 a.m. Prices are 2,000 yen for junior high school students and older, 1,200 yen for elementary school children, and there is no charge for children under school age (ages 6 and under). The menu features local ingredients, including egg dishes made with fresh eggs from Yokote. Restaurant service for lunch and dinner is currently suspended. On some accommodation plans, a free evening curry service is offered in the lobby from 5:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. (on those plans only; it may be suspended depending on circumstances).
Baths
There is a men's-only bath on the 1st floor, free for staying guests. It can be used from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. and from 5 a.m. to 9 a.m. There is no communal bath for women. Women are offered amenities such as bath additives, along with shampoo and hair irons available to borrow in limited quantities. As a rule, women and children bathe in the bathroom in their room.
Family-friendly features
Because the Japanese-style tatami room uses tatami and futon bedding, the hotel describes it as a room where there is no worry about a child falling out of bed. Breakfast costs nothing for children under school age (ages 6 and under) and 1,200 yen for elementary school children. Children's rates are also set for the room charge across every room type, from Single through Deluxe Twin; the amounts differ by plan, so please confirm when booking. Late checkout is available for an extension charge (please check the accommodation terms and conditions for details). Please note, however, that there is no communal bath that women and children can use, and that rooms close together for multiple-room bookings are limited to certain plans.
