The service was top-notch, with great friendly service from the accommodating staff at the reception desk. The location was perfect, situated near restaurants and just off Waikiki beach. The dining experience offered nice options to choose from. Overall, a fantastic experience worth the value.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms are beautifully decorated with a fantastic TV and lounging bed for a cozy experience. The service was impeccable, with staff always available to assist. The location is superb, situated near the serene Waikiki Beach and surrounded by lush greenery. The dining options were delicious, especially the fresh Guava juice. Overall, a great value for money with a few minor drawbacks to consider.
This hotel offers sleek and modern rooms with spectacular views, but the dining options are limited. The service is exceptional, and the location is perfect for exploring the vibrant surroundings.
This hotel offers a bright and modern stay with comfortable rooms, sunshine-filled balconies, and daily fresh towels. The service was exceptional, although there were some inconsistencies in following up on requests. The location is perfectly situated outside the busy Waikiki area, just steps away from Waikiki beach, offering a great view of Diamond Head. The dining options, although limited, included delicious fresh cheese bread. Overall, the facilities were well-kept and enjoyable.
I found the hotel to be ideally situated right on the Harbor in the beginning of Waikiki, offering a calm side of Waikiki Beach near the harbor, although slightly out of the central area. The rooms were beautifully decorated with superb amenities, but lacked soundproofing in the windows. The service was exceptional, with staff showing genuine gratitude for any tips we provided. The dining experience was delicious, offering options like Kailua pork and home-baked bread. However, the location was slightly out of the center of Waikiki, but still close to the busy tourist-y area. Overall, a great place with a few room for improvement.
I couldn't get enough of the stunning view overlooking the boar harbor; it was simply sensational. The rooms had very good amenities, although the furnishings were not any better than what you'd find elsewhere on the sixth level. Service truly stood out with exceptional customer service, but there was a lack of follow-up on my late check-out request. The location was a blessing being further away from the main Waikiki beaches, offering a peaceful retreat but still within reach for evening strolls to the strip or lagoon. The dining experience was delightful with fresh Guava juice and a good view of the harbor, providing nice options to choose from. The facilities were well-maintained, making my stay comfortable and convenient.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, nestled right on the harbour and close to the bustling area of Waikiki. The rooms offer stunning views, and the service was exceptional. However, the dining options were a bit limited. Overall, a wonderful experience with great value for money.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooms had a lovely contemporary decor with amazing ocean views and were cleaned every day with fresh towels. The service was top-notch with staff providing world-class service and great hospitality. The location was perfect, within walking distance to the convention center. The dining experience was delightful with delicious French press coffee and a good view of the harbor. The facilities were excellent, making my stay even more enjoyable.
The hotel offers both positives and negatives. Despite the rooms being spacious with two double beds, ice in a bucket, and exact same view, there is room for improvement. On the bright side, the service is top-notch with dedicated staff. The location, while not directly on the main beach, offers waterfront access and is conveniently close to the shopping district. The dining experience is a mixed bag, with some delicious options but a limited selection. Overall, a stay here has its ups and downs but delivers a decent experience.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel, with its charming rooms and the exceptional service provided by the staff. However, the tight squeeze of the two double beds in the room was a bit of a drawback. The location near the harbor on the calm side of Waikiki Beach was perfect for relaxation and enjoying the surroundings.
