DoubleTree by Hilton Hotels in Naha

The room was spacious and clean. The hotel's dining options were also excellent, especially the Shuntian Chinese restaurant, which I frequented several times during my stay. The hotel is located not far from Shurijo Castle and offers a tranquil setting. However, due to its location mid-mountain, the walk out of the hotel involves a long, steep climb, which may be challenging for those with mobility issues. Also, while the hotel has vending machines, the lack of nearby convenience stores and restaurants may be a problem for those seeking food and shopping.

The hotel is conveniently located right by Asahibashi Station, less than a minute's walk from the station exit elevator. The Naha Bus Terminal is just across the road, offering easy access to various destinations. You can take a bus to the outlet mall in about thirty minutes. While the hotel's street-facing entrance isn't very wide, it features double automatic doors, so there's no need to push or pull. In the evenings, the main entrance has key card access, which is a nice security feature. It's not a high-rise building. My room wasn't street-facing, which made it quite quiet. The soundproofing is just okay, so you might want to bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper. Housekeeping provides two complimentary bottles of mineral water every day. Many Japanese hotels don't offer free bottled water, so it's great that this one provides two. The bathroom, combining the toilet and shower, offers decent space. There are plenty of dining options right outside the hotel, including teppanyaki steak, izakayas, and seafood restaurants. Ryubo Department Store is within walking distance, and you can also walk to Kokusai Dori (International Street). It's very convenient for dining and shopping.
