Mercure Hotels in Naha

Strategically located just next to Tsubogawa monorail station with Lawson & 7 Eleven easily accessible from hotel. Check-in & out process was super smooth. There’s also a car rental service (Gulliver) attached to the hotel building so useful to those wanting to rent or return car. If you need to get around by bus then you may need to walk a bit further to get to your bus stop which is a bummer if the weather was sunny then rainy like ours. But still decently connected to bus routes (though note that bus timing in Okinawa is not as sharp as in major Japan cities). There’s an automated parking garage just behind the hotel building so you can park your car there. I’m unsure if they charge any parking fees for their hotel guest. I only parked my car there for an hour & I didn’t pay anything, but remember to validate your parking ticket at concierge before leaving. Room was clean with full amenities provided. My room came with a sofa bed so 3 adults can sleep comfortably though room space may be tight especially if you have lots of luggage but it’s still doable for us. There’s water & ice dispenser on each level so you can get free water & ice there instead of buying. There are washing & dryer machines on level 1 but only 3 units each, some people leave their clothings unattended inside the machines even when their cleaning cycle ends so it’s troublesome for the next user - so please be mindful of your timing & collect your clothings on time (the machine will indicate time needed to complete the cleaning cycle). We didn’t get the breakfast buffet so no comments on that. There are several fast food chains & restaurants surrounding the hotel but didn’t look too appetising to us. Overall, we liked the hotel & the convenience it offered so will consider staying again if we’re in Okinawa.
