Hotel Strata Naha
10/10 Excellent
"Everything was good. We had 3 rooms with 2 of them with lovely terrace to sit outdoors. Clean & modern decor, sensible switches, comfortable pajamas; even had nespresso machine and with the monorail station just in front of hotel it’s really convenient. Quiet location yet within 8 minutes walk to kokusai shopping and eateries street. Shower faucets abit confusing though in adjustment of hot and cold. And perhaps should offer normal pillows as foreigners are not used to Japanese type of pillows. "
"I liked the amenities in the lounge such as free coffee and juice from 7 am until 8 pm daily and the Japanese bath is inexpensive and well worth the money. Only 800 yen after opening at 4 pmbefore 8 pm."
"Everything great and perfect, satisfied all. Facilities and amenities are high end. All staffs are professional and very kindness. Strongly recommend Halekulani."
