    Great location near to all the shopping and eatieres but also tucked away from the main street so its quite private. And literally across the road from a lovely little stretch of Waikiki Beach.

    A cafe on site may have been an improvement to the hotel so we would not need to venture out to get refreshments.

    Location was brilliant as it was close to the beach walk. Room was spacious with a great view and lovely balcony with a high tech bathroom. No noise which made it very quiet and we were closest to the lift so this was surprising.

    The beds were sometimes a bit dusty in the corners. Hard to explain and I didn't realise to take photos, but this wasn't a big problem, as the dust was in place where one never really touches.

    The room and whole hotel was very modern and impressive. The staff were extremely helpful, and friendly. The WiFi worked excellently and I had video calls to EU/US without problems. Didn't get time to visit conference center or gym, but I am sure they are nice as well. The washing toilet was amazing! 😍

    Nothing negative to share.

    I loved how sheik the hotel was. It was very clean, everyone was friendly. Have nothing but great things to say. The parking per night does add up, so maybe we wish the parking would have been less! We also loved how it had a private beach across the street and the bakery next door was exceptional. We were there a week and we went to the bakery every morning besides the days it was closed.

    It was wonderful experience while we stayed this hotel. When we open the room door, there were beautiful ocean views. The room is clean and quiet. The bathroom is spacious and also clean. The hotel bakery is very convenient and was very tasty. The hotel stuff are very kind and polite. We will comeback next time.

    The hotel is fantastic. Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The rooftop pool (which is located on the first usable floor of the hotel - the 8th floor) is quiet and private. The staff overseeing the pool are friendly and helpful. We found free space / sunbeds each time we ventured to the pool, so it never felt overcrowded, and unlike other hotels where you can walk in off the street, access to the pool requires a hotel key / pass. We stayed in the Ocean King which had a nice view of the ocean, partially obstructed by the Sheraton on the eastern side (which wasn’t an issue). It was convenient to be able to charge food and beverages from the Halekulani restaurants to our room at the Halepuna. Towels are given to guests in a small duffle bag which can double up as a big to carry items to the beach in. Overall would recommend and would come back

    Nothing. This hotel is understated and low key. It might not be the best for kids as it does not really cater to them. Has more of an adult/sophisticated vibe. Note: we do not have kids.

    We love this hotel. It is beautifully designed with generously sized rooms. It has a great pool, great fitness facility, and fantastic staff...special shout out to the pool team and the folks at the bell desk (best ever).

    Whilst we well understand that check in is advertised as 3,00pm, interestingly we arrived at the Hotel at 2.40pm to be advised our room was not yet available. It made me wonder if the Hotel was strict on its check in policy & considered 2.40pm too early to check in even if the room was available thus asking the guests to wait till 3.00pm. OR was the room genuinely not available and still being cleaned between 2.40pm and 3.00pm?

    Friendly courteous staff from Reception to Housekeepers Hotel has a peaceful ambiance that was valued. Not a foyer full of noise and chaos as some other well known Honolulu hotels. Excellent location & a wonderful bakery next door with fresh produce & excellent coffee. Housekeeping of a high standard

    While very clean, streamlined, and efficient, I can't say there was anything particularly memorable about staying here. The location was good and it served it's purpose of simply being a clean, reliable place to sleep.

    I know this hotel has great reviews but I thought it was only OK. Nice, minimalist decor but it also feels a little generic and lacked atmosphere. Had a slightly upscale feel to it which was nice.

    This hotel is expensive, very expensive, but the room is so clean and the facilities amazing that I really felt it was worth it. If you are someone, like myself, who likes extreme cleanliness, I would say this is for you. Location is central, in the heart of Waikiki, so you can walk easily to the beach, if you are a beach person. All in all, if I'll ever come back to Hawaii, this is def the place I would stay again.

    Ease of access to the main section of beach was the only sore point, but nothing a short walk couldn't fix.

    Very clean and modern with nice technology touches to help use the room with ease. Nicely located in the Waikiki area.
