那霸东急REI饭店

A nice hotel with wonderful staff in a great location with a covered walkway both to the monorail and Naha Bus Terminal, with lots of shopping and dining options nearby. There are free drinks in the lobby downstairs including sake, awamuri and hot and cold drinks during a happy hour 3pm-6pm. There is a toaster and a microwave for guests to use, as well as a self-service laundry. I loved my spacious room with the balcony- it’s much bigger than the standard rooms. The beds were comfortable- not too hard and not too soft. If I were nitpicking, I would say I wish there was at least instant coffee provided in the rooms as there was none and to have coffee you had to go down to the lobby, but only after 10am when the breakfast was over. And this free coffee was horrible anyway, it was different to the one from the happy hour. Also, the grey carpet in the room looked a bit dirty, thankfully there were slippers provided.

Clean and nice high pressure body shower in the room. Happy hour from 3-6pm and free juice from I believe 3pm -midnight.

I highly recommend this hotel which is opposite the bus station and taxi stand. Lawsons, 7-11 and Family Mart are all within 2 blocks as well as restaurants. Daiso, and Naha's Travel Information Center are a short walk across the hotel in the small shopping center complex. The breakfast buffet changes daily, offering a curry, pizzas, soups, eggs, and much more. A complimentary happy hour is also offered. New fluffy, thick bath towels too. Staff can speak English and are very helpful.
