Richmond Hotel Naha Kumochi Set to Reopen in July 2026

Exciting news from the Richmond Hotels chain! The Richmond Hotel Naha Kumochi is set to reopen its doors on July 13, 2026, after undergoing a comprehensive renovation. This transformation aims to create an extraordinary experience for guests by thoughtfully reflecting the region's history and natural beauty in its design.

Concept of Renovation: The Tides

The hotel’s renovation is themed around the tides, a concept that inspires the design of its spaces. The interplay between the sea and land will be an intrinsic part of the hotel’s aesthetics, evoking the memory of the area's historical tidal flats. Conveniently located in downtown Naha, the Richmond Hotel Naha Kumochi is committed to bridging past and present, offering guests a space that connects with Okinawa's rich history and unique charm.

Refreshing Interior Design

The new design focuses on an open layout with a predominantly white palette, complemented by fresh, ocean-inspired hues reminiscent of Okinawan waters, accented with vibrant blues. For an engaging visual experience, a new 150-inch monitor in the lobby will showcase the stunning marine landscapes and rich natural scenery of Okinawa, enhancing the travel experience for visitors.

The common areas are adorned with signs designed to represent the flow of water, further enriching the hotel’s refreshing, Okinawan atmosphere.

Culinary Delights: Unique Breakfast Experience

One of the highlights of the Richmond Hotels brand is its breakfast experience, which promises to deliver joy not just to the palate but to the heart as well. The breakfast menu features iconic local dishes alongside beloved classics, incorporating elements of Okinawa's vibrant food culture. Guests can enjoy a buffet-style breakfast at the hotel’s in-house restaurant, Terrace Blue, which serves live kitchen specialties like Okinawa soba and tempura, along with local favorites such as Goya Chanpuru and Yushi Tofu.

Starting at 1 PM, a lounge exclusively for guests will offer complimentary drinks, including ice cream from Blue Seal, a renowned ice cream brand born in America but nurtured in Okinawa. This lounge provides a comfortable space to relax or work during breaks between adventures.

Embracing Okinawa's Culture

Richmond Hotel Naha Kumochi aims to provide guests with an immersive experience of Okinawan culture through its services and amenities. At the front desk, guests can find bath salts, skincare products, and even Okinawa’s distinctive Sanpin tea, ensuring a comfortable stay.

The lounge, operational from 1 PM to 8 PM, allows guests to enjoy Blue Seal ice cream and features seating equipped with power outlets for convenience, accommodating both leisure travelers and those on business trips.

Diverse Buffet Menu

The breakfast menu at Richmond Hotel Naha Kumochi celebrates the flavor of Okinawa, offering a variety of local dishes. Enjoy Okinawa soba, Goya Chanpuru, and Yushi Tofu, along with Pork Rib Soki and Mozuku, popular traditional home-cooked meals. The fluffy Yushi Tofu is particularly noted for its unique texture.
