Top Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden Hotel Reviews

Kikala Waterfall Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The property was absolutely gorgeous. Will definitely book here again."

Hilo Reeds Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is definitely old with limited parking. First impressions aside, it is located on the bay in a quiet part of Hilo. The rooms too were old and had not been renovated in a while, but ours was spacious and clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful."

Hilo Bay Oceanfront B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful setting on the water. Friendly and helpful property owners. Very clean and comfortable accommodations. Will stay there again."

Grand Naniloa Hotel Hilo - a Doubletree by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Considering they just went through a bad storm, this hotel was clean and the staff were courteous and friendly. Room was clean and we enjoyed our getaway."

Aarons Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"Second time staying at Aaron’s Cottage. This time cottage #4 with the 4 person set up for my wife and I and our two daughters. Little kitchenette with practically everything. Also have access to community kitchen. Look to see if Aaron’s has availability the next time this local family head to Hilo!"

Arnott's Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"only issue there was is the ac did not get very cold. i set the temperatre to 64 degrees, which is the coldest setting, and the room felt like 70 degrees. also not a big deal unless you arriveing on a late flight, office hours are only 9-5, checking in after 5 is an issue"

Hilo Town Inn

8/10 Good

"We liked the room and liked the location - just steps to the Farmer's Market. This is more of a note to Expedia than to the Hilo Downtown Inn. This is the second place we have rented through Expedia that didn't tell us we'd need to negotiate stairs. My wife has trouble navigating stairs. I think the property and Expedia have an ethical and perhaps legal obligation to inform potential renters about the stairs."

Mahana House Country Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Mahana House is a gorgeous space where seemingly everything has been thought about and tended to. The hosts are kind, gracious, and welcoming. They're as available as you need them to be, and when my mom and I were caught in a tropical storm and literally not even sure we'd make it to the inn, they were continuously available and responsible, without having electricity themselves. This is a truly beautiful, special place, and I hope to go back!"

Hilltop Vacation Rental

10/10 Excellent

"Nice old plantation style house with a beautiful yard and view of Hilo. Staff was nice and helpful, even tho I arrived a day and a half late. Very peaceful place to stay, with birds chirping in the morning and coqui frogs croaking at night."
