Recommended Points
Hotel Palm Royal NAHA Kokusai Dori opened on July 1, 2005 and is now in its 15th year. The hotel is bright and clean, and is truly a tropical hotel. The hotel is conveniently located in the middle of Kokusai-dori, but you will not feel the noisy downtown area because it is located in the middle of one of the main streets. The interior of the hotel is like a small art museum, with a wide range of art, from Okinawan and Asian antiques to modern European art. The art gallery corridor is free of charge.
The popular Royal Spa uses nano water, the ultimate water using nano technology, for beautiful skin and hair. Okinawa has strong ultraviolet rays, and since we often play in the ocean, our hair and skin are easily damaged by seawater. It is very nice to be able to take care of them on the same day.
In summer, you can also swim in the outdoor pool. There is a bar by the pool, where you can also have BBQ. It would be a waste of time if you only plan to sleep at this hotel.
The breakfast buffet offers Okinawan, Western, and Japanese dishes. There are not many items, but you can enjoy the local cuisine that is carefully selected one by one.
Hotel Palm Royal NAHA Kokusai Dori is the first LGBT-friendly hotel in Kyushu and Okinawa, contributing to a more LGBT-open society. This hotel also accepts LGBT weddings.
The staff is courteous and hospitable, and 93.8% of guests are satisfied with the hotel according to the results of a hotel stay survey.
Points to note
There is no parking lot exclusively for hotel guests, but there are affiliated parking lots nearby. This is also not guaranteed, so you may need to look for a parking lot if you are visiting during the on-season. Be careful if you are planning to rent a car in Okinawa.
Also, the restaurant will be crowded during breakfast when staying at the hotel during peak hours. If you are planning to use this hotel during peak hours of your trip to Okinawa, you may want to stay overnight with no meal and go to Kokusai-dori for breakfast.
