Hyatt Regency Naha, Okinawa

**Overview** Hyatt Regency Naha is the city choice for people who expect to spend more hours in Makishi and nearby neighborhoods than by a resort pool. It is within walking distance of Kokusai-dori, making it easy to split up for shopping or an early dinner and regroup at the hotel. The rooms have work areas and the hotel has its own dining and an outdoor pool. It also makes a sensible arrival or departure base when the rest of the trip is farther north. **Key metrics** - Guest rooms and suites: 294 - Food and beverage outlets in opening plan: 4 - Airport distance in opening plan: Under 3 mi **Pros** - Central location makes evening plans straightforward - Work areas suit guests combining travel and a workday - On-site facilities give arrival and departure days some flexibility **Cons** - The nearest attractions are urban - Use a different base if the main goal is a beach stay - An outdoor pool depends on operating hours and conditions **Best for** Visitors taking a city-first trip or breaking up a longer main-island stay. **Things to watch out for** Check the route for any early ferry or airport departure before assuming that all Naha hotels are equally convenient.
