Waikiki Resort Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The cleaning lady was spot on . We had the same one all week and took care of all of our needs with a smile . The entire staff were all very friendly and professional. I would definitely choose Waikiki resort hotel for my next stay again."

Holiday Inn Express Waikiki by IHG

8/10 Good

"Walking distance to the beach and located near shops and restaurants. Staff were helpful and friendly. We were received a room upgrade so we could be on the same floor as the rest of our party. The rooms and hotel were clean and in good condition. They serve a decent breakfast, however, elevators do get busy during peak hours. Parking is a challenge and probably the most stressful part of the trip. We would stay again :)"

The Kahala Hotel & Resort

8/10 Good

"Second time staying. Great location, beautiful stretch of private beach. Get the impression the staff could be a little more attentive. Waiting staff morale seems low. Basic asks feel like too much work for them. On the plus side the room is comfortable and quiet but could do with a bit of updating. Feels a bit tired. AC in the hotel blasts far far too cold, imagine how much energy could be saved if they just set it at the right temperature. Poolside dining options could use some work."
