Hotels near Shurijo Castle

The hotel itself is a bit damp. You might feel a humid and stuffy sensation inside the rooms. The hotel staff were quite good; the front desk personnel I interacted with that day had some communication challenges. They couldn't communicate directly in English and had to use a translation device, but basic communication was not an issue.

On August 26th, we were unfortunately stranded due to a typhoon. Luckily, before we left, I had booked a one-day room with free cancellation on Klook, so I wasn't flustered when I canceled. We packed our bags and changed rooms during the typhoon night. The infinity pool was closed during the typhoon, but the unlimited beer and soda from 6 PM to 7 PM was still available, turning the 14th floor into an interesting lounge for stranded guests. Although it's a bit far from the station, there are almost all types of convenience stores nearby, and Jack Steak is right downstairs. The hotel parking lot costs 1800 NTD, but there are many flat parking lots nearby, so there's no need to worry if you're renting a car and driving.

The location is convenient, as the hotel is near the monorail station, about an 8-minute walk away! A taxi from the airport to the hotel costs approximately 1600 Japanese Yen, which is also a good value if you're traveling with multiple people. Kokusai Street is about a 15-minute walk from the hotel, and there are many convenience stores nearby. It's also close to Bus Terminal 1, making it easy to take a bus to other destinations.

truly a 5/5 star hotel even though japan doesn't have an official hotel rating system. it was conveniently located near kokusai dori so you can do a lot of shopping and go to nearby restaurants. the room was incredibly spacious too. i only wished they offered local beers and face masks like their competitors do

We had a very satisfying stay. The room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious. The pool provided floats for children, and snacks and drinks were available all day in the lounge. It's also conveniently located near Kokusai Street, so finding a restaurant is never a problem.

The location is excellent. It's right across the crosswalk from Anri Station. There's a 24-hour supermarket nearby, and the next street over is full of izakayas at night. Kokusai Street and Makishi Public Market are also within walking distance. Plus, if you opt out of towel changes, the hotel offers a free ice cream or drink. There's also a complimentary coffee machine and a washing machine on the first floor. It's fantastic!

Hotel location: Very convenient, right outside the station. Service: The lobby reception service was professional. However, the room type advertised for 3 people was much smaller than expected. Cleanliness: Clean, very good. Breakfast:

Hotel Location: The hotel is a 5-minute walk from the station, which is a very convenient and excellent location. Service: Acceptable Cleanliness: Acceptable Breakfast: The breakfast is quite unique, especially the DIY burgers on the first floor. There's a wide variety of breakfast options, all very good, though I feel the layout isn't well-designed. On the second day, I chose the breakfast on the top floor, which was quite tasty and more universally appealing. The double bed in the room is only slightly larger than a single bed, but for a city hotel, this amount of space is acceptable. The infinity pool is definitely a highlight; I personally recommend visiting the rooftop pool (additional charge). I suggest upgrading the hairdryer in the room, as the cover kept falling off while I was using it, indicating a product defect.

The hotel's first floor offers DHC skincare products for guests to take, as well as special Okinawan tea bags. Each guest receives one bottle of water daily, and if you opt out of housekeeping, fresh towels will be hung on your door. Overall, everything was great, except the pillow was a bit too firm for me. However, everyone has different pillow preferences, so this doesn't affect my rating.
