Hotels near D&Department Okinawa by Okinawa Standard, Ginowan

Together with my husband and daughter, we stayed 1 week in this beautiful hotel. It just opened last April 2021. Everything was perfect. We are very thankful to the owner and all the staff. They were very professional, kind and really helpful. Victor, Yumi, Olivier, Oscar and Anca were always there to make sure everything is okay during our stay. They gave us delicious croissants with coffee and drinks for breakfast even though it was not mentioned during our reservation. All the rooms come with an ocean view. The sunset from the room is spectacular and very romantic. All we want to do as soon as we wake up is to open the curtains and enjoy the sea view. The room is charming with a tatami-like floor. The bathroom is spacious. Internet is very reliable. The swimming pool on the rooftop offers a panoramic view. The hotel is in a quiet, family-friendly area and just 15mins walk from American village where you can do the shopping and find a lot of restaurants. Thank you for the wonderful experience. We will never forget our sejour and definitely will see you again soon.

Okinawa for the first time in 13 years, beach tower for the first time in 13 years The room is large, the hot springs are very satisfied with the facilities and location such as a heated pool, but ... I was disappointed with the response at check-in. Arrived at the hotel at 16:00 after sightseeing, the lobby was full of people waiting for the reception, and I couldn't be guided at the entrance, so I searched for the staff on this side and told him that I wanted to accept it. Then, I was given a number tag saying, ”We accept it in order, so please wait with this number.” .. When 50 minutes have passed, I look for the staff again and check how long it will take, and he said, ”I can't understand the time. It takes time to confirm because there is a confirmation of the coupon.” Change the question and I ”How long are there waiting?” Staff ”Please wait .. There are 9 more groups in front of you.” I ”How long is it taking for one group?” Staff ”About 15 minutes” Me ”Does it take more than 90 minutes !?” (I don't have a calculation (; ^_^) Staff ”Yes” I'm surprised and can't speak. .. I've already waited for 50 minutes, but more than 90 minutes? ?? ?? I know I can definitely wait for more than 30 minutes If so, there may be a way to guide you in advance, or to leave your luggage first and put it in a hot spring or pool ... I was angry at this response from the first day. Also two months ago Despite his appointment, he said, ”I upgraded to a room above one for free because it will be a very popular room.” I thanked you, but when I went to the room The door is half open? I can hear people's voices from inside. I was surprised to see the cleaner 々. Isn't it an upgrade or a staff reception mistake? I was convinced. The view is not good if it is a family room. I would like to review the system at check-in and review the education of the staff.

We stayed in a deluxe twin room with a wide view. The room was very spacious and the large bath was super comfortable. The breakfast was very healthy and I liked it very much, especially the cheese platter which tasted really good! The service staff are very polite. The location is relatively high, but not far from the Children's Kingdom and shopping malls. It's very convenient to drive. The overall feeling is very satisfactory.

Good location and hygiene. Unfortunately, the hotel car park was full when I arrived. The front desk staff offered a free room upgrade which I considered as a compensation. If you don’t have special requests on accommodation, this hotel will be a suitable option.

コンベンションセンターでのライブに参加するために宿泊しました。会場まで徒歩5分と好立地ですし、飲食店、スーパー、コンビニ等どこに行くにも便利のよいホテルでした。 アメニティも必要最低限なものは全て揃っているし、冷蔵庫の効きが少し悪い(勝手にスイッチが切れていることが何度かあった)ことを除けば大満足です。また是非利用したいと思います。 朝食のパンの種類が思った以上にたくさんあって選ぶのが楽しかったです！

In Japan.. Rarely seen big room, big bed, very satisfied.

Compared to big city hotels (like Tokyo, New York, etc) the roominess was very welcome! Even the most basic configuration rooms consist of sleeping area, living room area, kitchen sink area with fridge & microwave, a bathtub/shower with scenic view & every room faces the ocean so you get a floor to ceiling window & patio with great ocean view. The staff is very helpful & restaurant is very nice, with decent variety for breakfast buffet & more upscale for dinner hours. Within walking distance is the marina, Tropical Beach, & Round One to keep the kids entertained. About a block down the street is San-A shopping center where you can buy typical souvenir food stuff but without the jacked up tourist pricing. You can also get decent quality clothing & fashionable items at reasonable prices (if you from U.S., think Target or Walmart). The shopping center also has several restaurants. We loved the donut shop, & also the robot restaurant (the servers are robots - real robots, the mechanical kind, not humans dressed as robots). The relatively central location of this hotel also meant we could call a cab & head out almost anywhere without breaking the bank. We would definitely go back again.

Nice view, great customer service and other services including rental car, shuttle bus between airport and the hotel, rides between its parking lots and the hotel , and 12pm check out time. There was mold on the bathroom wall, moss on pool side wall and roof of pool room looked old with black stains . I heard people talking on the hallway very clearly from a room so I was careful being quiet walking with my kids on the hallway. 
The elevator closes quickly and no motion detect sensor so had to be careful. When my kids got off from the elevator before me, the door closed when I tried to get off. I pressed the “open” button but it didn’t work and took me to another floor level…fortunately, my kids were still waiting for me when I went back to them.
There wasn’t much Okinawan dish in the Buffet except breakfast. Lunch and Dinner were same menus. Driving street by the hotel isn’t easy for beginner drivers….streets are narrow and many blinds spot. Be careful driving around the neighbourhood. However, customers service was outstanding, and it was all good experience with the reasonable price. In addition, it was hard to get taxis in rural areas in Okinawa. It seems they have cut off numbers of taxis since Covid has happened. Staffs by the front door can help for calling taxes if you are riding from hotel.

Really new and clean hotel, love the room it’s huge, love the public bath too clean and spacious, location is just exit of an express way, very near American village

We went there for personal trip and had good relaxation at the hotel. We were concern the pool scale but there are many pool types and some is enjoyable for adults. Also we can go through to the beach directly from the pools. You have to pay attention to the inside pool is paid pool. The one thing I want to point out is the staff attitude at reception desk. Once we check in, it seems the staff irritated for something and no smile. For the explanation of facilities is also not enough. This is little disappointment for us.
