Mercure Yokosuka

We stayed at Mercure Yokosuka for seven nights while visiting my mom's family, and my wife's son who was working at the navy base. The hotel is just a few minutes walk from the Yokosuka Shiori train station, which we used a number of times to do some sight seeing. Right across the street, via an overpass that crossed over the main road, was the Coaska shopping mall, which we visited a number of times for groceries, coffee, dinner (Sushiro was a favorite) and just plain old curiosity. There's is a Tully's in the mall which has some of the best drip coffee I've had in a long time. The staff at this coffee shop was so polite and helpful. A definite shout out to the woman who I talked to a few times who spoke fluent English. She is Japanese, and had moved back to Japan about a year ago after living in Los Angeles for about 20 years (if I remember correctly). It was delightful to talk to her and get to know her. I'm sure I'm going to get this wrong, but I think her name was Eko - my sincere apologies if I get that wrong. The Starbucks that was on the Coaska property (in a stand alone building) was also great. Also, they open earlier than Tully's (0700 vs. 0800). Speaking of employees/staff, I must say that the staff at Mercure Yokosuka are incredible. Wonderfully helpful, attentive, polite and very aware of everything that was happening in their lobby. I enjoyed my interactions with every one of them. Many, many thanks for making our stay so enjoyable.

We’ve stayed here many times as we have family in the area. The last night of our stay we were charged a ridiculous amount because of the ‘beach day’ holiday. We paid about $400 in a room that is worth $100 at most.

I always stay here every time I visit my family. Its location is very convenient to the train station, naval base and shops and restaurants. People at the hotel are very nice and polite. I will definitely recommend this hotel.
