Top Eastern Honolulu Hotel Reviews

Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The location was perfect, with beautiful ocean views and easy access to the beach, restaurants, and shops. Our room was comfortable and the overall experience was very relaxing. The views were definitely one of our favorite parts of the stay. The staff were also very helpful,"

Waikiki Resort Hotel

8/10 Good

"This is a small hotel owned by SONO, not a well known resort. We stayed here a week because my husband had work and this was one of the government rate approved hotels. I would not refer to this property as a resort, only because it does not have the same amenities expected at Waikiki resorts. We had an issue with our initial room, the hotel front desk resolved the issue quickly. PROS >Smaller hotel >Near to beach- approximately 2 blocks >Close to many eating establishments >Friendly staff- beginning with front desk all the way to cleaning staff >On site breakfast options >Bar for evening music and cocktails >Clean >Quiet >Mostly adult patrons >Rooms have fridge, wet bar, Kuerig coffee machine, water kettle, a few dishes & microwave >Air Conditioning >Rooms have balconies >Parking available for $45 per day which is LESS than most Waikiki properties CONS >Small pool (clean), no umbrellas, no poolside service. (Allowed me to doordash food to pool area) >Rooms are a bit dated, could use some freshening up (paint, furnishings are not modern) >Beach towels available, guests must retrieve and return them from basement/garage >Small car garage"

Ilikai Hotel & Luxury Suites

8/10 Good

"The property was clean and had everything we needed for our last minute change of plans! Was close to other things making getting around easy without a car. The only pitfalls were housekeeping skipped us a couple of times which is no big deal but when we really needed it just happened to be on days we needed it. The TV was hard to navigate and the balcony doors we couldn't close properly due to the doors or tracks being out of wack. Otherwise it was great watching the fireworks from our room on our first night."

The Kahala Hotel & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"One of the best experiences in hotel lodging I’ve been able to enjoy. Finer than hotels in Europe, with service unmatched in any island or beach destination. Definitely will be back. Their concierge and front desk staff were incredible accommodating to any request. Thank you to all staff, especially Danny at the pool bar."

Best Western The Plaza Hotel Honolulu Airport - Free Breakfast

8/10 Good

"Very convenient to airport and free shuttle. Very nice free breakfast in a large cafe style room. The elevators were very slow and one of them was broken. Very confusing where the front lobby was located because of poor front entrance signage."
