Pros: The food is excellent. While parts of the facility are outdated, it is well maintained and the attentive staff makes up for the slightly dated appearance. The beach is awesome.
Cons: The pool should be larger. The poolside menu could use some more pizazz and creativity.

Pros: The staff and growns are amazing
Cons: The dolidpin and turtle tanks, way to small for them to live

Pros: Kahala is located close enough to the city action yet far enough away where it's remote. Though the pool area was relatively small, it was never crowed. The dolphin lagoon and sea turtle exhibit was quite amazing. Beach was also gorgeous and calm. No complaints about the Kahala. Would definitely visit again.
Cons: Wish there was good snorkeling right around there but that's asking for too much!!
Excellent

Pros: Private beach means it is never overcrowded. Friendly, professional staff. Dolphin Lagoon a must experience for kids. Big, comfortable room with comfortable bed, nice bath amenities. All toilets have a bidet, which is a nice surprise. Beautiful grounds and atmosphere.
Cons: Above average humidity for this time of year. We were told it was due to the El Nino from winter. Small pool (and number of chaise lounges) that can get crowded quickly. Food from the Seaside Grill and Plumeria is overpriced and okay, at best. Drinks overpriced, but tastes great.

The staff was so helpful, from the concierge to the front desk staff. We forgot to request a late checkout and had staff help us feel comfortable all day before leaving for a red eye late in the night. Food was great at all restaurants. The resort is about a 15-20 min ride from Waikiki. Spa services were amazing. Standard king room was spacious for the two of us. Had daily housekeeping without request. Toto bidets in each room. Everything was wonderful and we would love to come back!
This family-friendly Honolulu hotel is located in the entertainment district, steps away from Royal-Moana Beach, Waikiki Beach and Royal Hawaiian Center. International Market Place and Waikiki Beach Walk are also within 10 minutes.

9,3
Pros: The adults only infinity pool. Amazing!!!! 10/10 The location 10/10 This is my second time staying here after visiting 2 years ago with a friend. The most trip with my fiancè. The price seems expansive however I can assure you it's definitely worth it. The pool and location best in Waikiki. We had a standard city view room. And the room was a decent size with all standard features. The location and adults only pool, make this the best hotel I've stayed at. They also have a great kids pool if traveling with a family, with slides.
Cons: Loved everything.

Pros: The facility and management were awesome and very accommodating. The initial room I was in seemed to be slightly dirty (tub and sheets both had stains). I can’t for certain say they weren’t clean. I couldn’t tell if they were stained or dirty. Either way, I shouldn’t have to guess. Once I notified management this was quickly rectified and I was placed in a new room- with a bonus upgrade. This is still my favorite hotel.

Pros: Sheets were awesome, and the infinity pool nice. The process to reserve pool lounges was awesome. Valet over night for guest could be cheaper than 45 dollars a day.
Cons: Front desk attendant asked for my home address which I’ve never experienced. Was a little weird. She wrote it down just on scratch paper. The pool waitress was very inattentive to myself and a friend that stopped by for a visit. Although she repeadily attended to everyone else on the same row of lounge chairs.

Pros: This place was great for us being the budget travellers. The room was a little out dated but it was clean, spacious and had everything we wanted. I would recommend this hotel!
Excellent
9,7
Pros: Design, size of property, warmth and professionalism of staff. Value is great and since I live on another Hawaiian island, I liked the location, a somewhat quiet area of Waikiki but very close to the action. Great for LGBT travellers as well. You are far enough from the madding crowds and most of the guests were warm and friendly.
Cons: Pool needs to be heated and music is too loud. Also, (and I wish this was at every hotel), the shower was a bit complicated and took time to figure out how to properly adjust temperature, etc. Instructions would be helpful. Also, I called to find out where the channel guide for the tv was located and Front Desk did not know. Remodel those elevator cabs.....yuck!

The hotel has a back courtyard style toward the oceanfront with many rooms facing an open dining and socializing area. Yet despite shutting down the dining and drinking options a sizeable group of people were permitted to boistrously carry on until 1 AM. This certainly disrupted the sleep of many besides my wife and myself as we were staying 3 floors above the area. The management of this high end resort can certainly do better.

Pros: Great location with great views. iPad in the the room was a cool touch

Pros: From the moment I walked in the door, I fell in love with the old beach vibe. The understated luxury just oozed from the place. The staff was amazing and always attentive to our needs from dinner plans at check in, offering a hospitality suite after check out because we had a late flight. Truly amazing experience and 100% worth the price tag!

Pros: The staff were incredible and helped so much. Our flight was leaving late at night and they let us use a hospitality room to shower and get cleaned up before we left for the air port. The staff at the restaurants on property were fantastic, epically Omar at The Beach House. It's a quiet gem in crazy Waikiki.

The hotel location is on the beach, and directly in the middle of the Waikiki area of action. The hotel staff was friendly and very helpful whenever approached. The only average part of the hotel was that my bed was on the verge of needing to be retired from service. I'm a little more sensitive to soft mattress as compared to the average person. My room had a view of both the beach and the city street so I can people watch from the room. I highly recommend this location if you come to Oahu for the complete experience that Oahu offers. You will have to pony up and pay at this hotel.
Okay
5,7
Pros: The food was excellent The bed was very comfortable The room was very clean The front desk staff were on top of it
Cons: The room was over-priced for its size and location/view The hostess at the restaurant told us we had to wait 30 min for lunch sitting but didn't tell us we should have made a reservation so when we lined up at noon she told us we'd have to wait another 30 min Too much furniture in my hallway. Not elegant
Located in Waikiki, this beachfront resort is connected to a shopping centre, just steps away from Royal-Moana Beach, Waikiki Beach and Royal Hawaiian Center. International Market Place and Waikiki Beach Walk are also within 10 minutes.

Pros: Elegant surroundings, friendly staff, excellent location. We are glad we booked with the breakfast plan because the buffet with “Royal” options was awesome.
Cons: I’m a Starwood member and was told at checkin that I’d receive a 10% discount on restaurants, spa etc at the Royal as well as the affiliate hotels. The gentleman said it would be deducted from the final bill; however, at checkout no discounts were applied. I questioned this and was told I needed to present my card at the time of each service and the deduction was not automatic. The bad info I received at checkin cost me at least $60.

Pros: The staff was wonderful and the Mai Tai bar was a great place to sit and watch the sun go down. Rooms were very comfortable

Pros: My girlfriend and I agree that The Royal Hawaiian is our go-to hotel for our stay-cations. We LOVE it there. It's hard to even consider other local hotels. The staff, the facilities, the service, and the way that the hotel feels secluded even though we're in the middle of Waikiki... there's so much to love about this place. This is our second year in a row staying here, and we'll definitely be back. Mahalo to everyone there for continuing to impress us.
Cons: This space intentionally left blank. :-)

10,0
Pros: Have dreamed of staying at the Royal Hawaiian for many years. The vacation more-than lived up to expectations. The adjacent mall and food court provided entertainment, shopping and reasonable meal choices.
Cons: Mid-week was peaceful and serene. By the weekend the place was filling up with lots of tourists. Can't believe how many people were in Waikiki in general.
Excellent
8,8
Pros: The hotel itself is quite beautiful. Though there is a very small pool, the pool deck is very comfortable and private. There is a fabulous view of Diamond Head on the beach. It's also not a mega hotel, so the number of people wasn't too overwhelming. The delicious muffins were a very nice touch, as well as the staff attention on the pool deck. Great location.
Cons: Our room seemed small. There were too many reasons we had to call for help, including repairs to the room and keys not working. All resolved, but annoying. I don't think a hotel of this caliber should be having these kind of problems. The price tag is very steep and I wasn't convinced it was worth it.
Excellent
8,2
Pros: Location is tops, literally the best part of Waikiki Beach fronts the hotel. Amazing history, second only to the Moana Surfrider. Very romantic, but not much stuff to do for kids.
Cons: AC in historic wing could be better. Pool is very small. Not sure why families bring kids here, they'd be much happier at one of the bigger resorts (including the Sheraton right next door).
Excellent
9,4
Pros: Though we were in the heart of Waikiki, it did not feel like we were anywhere near the hustle and bustle that is the Waikiki of today. It truly felt like a getaway. Service was stellar, the staff was friendly and attentive, the setting and atmosphere can't be beat. You've spoiled us; we can never stay in another Waikiki hotel. TRH is the one for us.
Cons: Minor gripes about cleanliness. Found a charm and a bobby pin left by previous room occupants, and toilet had a few hairs and spots also from previous occupants.
Located in Waikiki, this hotel is within a 10-minute walk of Waikiki Beach and Honolulu Zoo. Royal Hawaiian Center and Ala Wai Golf Course are also within 15 minutes.

Ocean view room is from a distance over parking lots and between buildings. In room WiFi is about $10 a day and no buffet breakfast or bathrobe.

9,4
Pros: When you go to Wikipedia and look up Waikiki, there is a picture of THIS hotel! If you book an Ocean-front room on a higher floor in the Eastern-most tower, you'll have the classic view most can only dream of from your balcony or even inside the room. Besides the obvious beach across the street, within a few blocks walk, you'll find dozens of restaurants and high-end shops, as well as the Honolulu bus transit line. Timely response to the only need we presented was commendable. Wifi worked well, also.
Cons: Room service neglected to replace the coffee pod on one of the days the room was cleaned. We didn't notice until the following morning when it was time to make coffee. When visiting the fitness room, one of the two elliptical trainers had a broken display. This made it impossible to use in any mode other than manual.

It is within walking distance of everything you need. This hotel is a great value for the price. Overall, I would definitely stay here again.
Cons: The lobby needs to be updated. It was clean but the decor looked like it was from the 80's. They need to update it like the rooms. The elevators were a bit of a hassle. There were 4 of them and one was not working. The ones that were working seemed to have a mind of their own at times.

Pros: The hotel is newly renovated and less than a 5 min walk to the beach Love the pool And lot of all love their customer service. Renee went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care off Great breakfast The aquarium was really fun for our kids along with the pool.
Cons: Our refrigerator broke on day one but they were good about replacing it The parking is expensive $30 a day as is the breakfast buffet $35 per person Wish the kids pool was heated The Morimoto restaurant customer service was disappointing as they kept saying the chef was there so we made multiple reservations and yet every time we went they came up with some excuse as to why we could not meet him. A great way to make money

Cons: I booked this room for my elderly parents for their first vacation in Hawaii. Paid for a partial ocean view room, and got only a slice of ocean. They were given the worst room possible in that category. AC unit outside room was extremely loud which made their sleep miserable. I feel sorry for them and regret booking this hotel. But the damage was done.

Pros: I liked the location. It's right next to the mcdonalds if you're hungry for a cheap meal, especially if you don't want to spend $35 for the breakfast buffet that they offer at the hotel. But if you get a free deal for the breakfast buffet if you book through Expedia or a third party website , it's definitely worth it. There's a parking garage connected to the hotel but it'll cost you $25/night. It's also super close to the Hyatt and international market. And the beach is 1 min walk. You just have to cross a stoplight. Diamond Head and the zoo are close too. I would uber to diamond Head if it's later in the day cuz parking can go fast. But the zoo is walkable.
Cons: There's a hidden resort fee that you pay $20 a night for. But my question was, where's the resort? The clerk was like, "this is the resort." But he wasn't clear that the "resort fee" included beach towels and beach chairs. There's a LOT of construction going on. It doesn't bother me so much, but it might bother you. There's no pool, but the hotel does have access to the Hilton's pool next door. But I was just swimming at the beach the whole time. All the "resort" amenities are basically under construction/refurbishment- like the aquarium with restaurant and tennis courts. So the only thing was I was paying a resort fee when the stuff for the resort aren't even available. I feel like they should have just waived the resort fee.

Pros: I enjoyed 2 nights here and then looked for a bit more savings. I actually went to 3 other hotels in the 100-150 range and looked at their rooms. Nasty. Old, outdated, musty, mildewed... the Shoreline Waikiki is not fancy, but it sure is clean and smart. So I went back and rented another room for 3 more nights. Rooms are small. Rooms were clean! First room, on 6th floor, was a tad shinier and newer than second room I rented on 5th floor. I suppose it had seen less traffic. Hotel staff was friendly, there's coffee and iced tea downstairs, there's a simple but clean and effective pool on the roof. All the design/remodel choices are one smart notch above budget. Hotel is a few feet off of Kuhio, in the midst of the Waikiki tourist district. Beach is a 5 minute walk. No complaints at all. Heartily recommended.
Cons: Hotel taxes in Waikiki are high, so a $119 room bills out at just under $135.
Good
6,3
Pros: The only thing I like is the location and have to say : you pay for what you get.
Cons: Serious construction going on with their lower level restaurant, best to stay out of lower floor. I stay at 5th and still can hear the noise, start as early as 8am in the morning. Better to check and make sure they construction is finish before you make your decision, or demand upper floor room. The house keeping was horrible, 3 straight days without reloading the shampoo and facial towers... no washing cups, no wiping the table.. overall house keeping quality is poor.

Pros: Closeness to the beach
Cons: When we arrived to our room, the city view was a view of the parking garage, actual a parked car was about 3 feet from our window. It was NOT a city view which I booked. When we called the front desk, we were advised they were completely booked and had no rooms available elsewhere. (We looked online and it did indicate there were rooms available for the night in a better location.) We were told we would be upgraded to a partial ocean view, but not until the next night. Also, there is an additional $30 charge per night for staying at that location, we were not advised of that until we were checking in. We also had to pay an additional $47 per day for valet parking which we also were not advised of until we checked in. The rooms are run down and carpets are old. In the high traffic areas the carpet had creases in spots, enough to cause us to trip. We had a negative encounter with one of your valets, we lost the valet ticket that was on the key, when we returned, they made a big deal of it, told us that we should have kept it on the key ring. Not good customer service especially after charging $47 per day!!!. This is a Marriott Resort and we booked it because of the name and our expectations were not even remotely met... Marriott should evaluate this location, both the desperate need of renovation and some of the customer service. If it's not going to be renovated soon, then charging appropriate hotel/motel rates and advertise appropriately.

Pros: The location is acceptable and very close to the beach. Depending on where your room is located you might be impacted by the pool activity and noise.
Cons: I didn't like the fact that you get a room rate online, but when you arrive there are extra fees (Resort Fee $30.00 a day, and if you valet park a vehicle, it is $37.00 a day). The fees are not necessarily hidden, they are just not posted on the daily rate schedule. You find out when you are checking in. I have stayed in Honolulu many times and these fees are normal for most of the hotels. Hence, it would be better to show all of the rates and fees that are associated with your stay, so that you can make an intelligent choice in your selection of a hotel,
Good
7,7
Pros: The hotel is great. It is clean with a friendly staff and located very conveniently.
Cons: My only complaint and my warning for folks booking here would be that the price is definitely not what you see. I booked my rooms on Kayak and paid in full at booking. When I got to the hotel I was told that there was a $30/ day + tax charge for staying in the hotel. To self park in the hotel parking garage is $35/day or you can valet park for $37/day. The additional $65+/day adds up quickly. Just a heads up. Otherwise the hotel was lovely.

Cons: 100% not a 4-star hotel, 1000% would not book again. Facilities are worn, tired, and much different than advertised--rooms are bare, with damaged furniture and the advice from other reviewers about needing flip-flops for the bathroom floors? Follow it. After asking to switch rooms because we booked a king, not a double room, we were told none were available. After complaints about state of the bathroom's floor and old toothpaste globbed all over the sink, the front desk was able to "pull some strings" and landed us in the room we originally booked, with a cleaner sink and marginally cleaner floor. Other guests were listening at this point, so I suspect that helped. After being frank with the front desk about our dissatisfaction with the bathroom (see below) We finally ended up in an "Ocean View" room, which was the exact same room with the exact same problems. Rooms are spatially adequate, but only include a bed and bar-height tables with stools--nowhere to comfortably sit. Bathrooms are barely serviceable, with towel racks, shower rods, etc. visibly pulling out of the walls. Caked-on dirt in the shower made it feel vaguely unsanitary, and once-white tiled floors were full of broken tiles, and grout stained with mold? urine? dirt? left me wishing I had brought those flip flops. The entire space has also clearly been painted over and over again, adding to the college-dorm feeling. Towels are scratchy and often have stains on them, as do the sheets. The worst part of the rooms was the sliding door/window system--our own door rattled and banged whenever one of our neighbors closed their doors. I was woken up at all hours of the night to what sounded like someone trying to break into our room, when in reality someone was just stepping outside. On-site parking is mandatory valet at ~$47/day+tax, considerably higher than surrounding properties after a quick web search. Valet is understaffed, so factor +15-25 min just to get your car. You'll also be forced into paying ~$39/day+tax "Resort Fee," for which you will receive absolutely no value. Even as they advertise that this covers all manner of services, good luck actually finding the amenities to enjoy. The only info given about these is on a slide which displays for 2 seconds every few minutes by the front desk (see photos). What we found was a motel masquerading as a high-rise hotel, with rooms that made me nostalgic for my old college dorm. I will caveat that all staff we spoke to were kind and polite, if not necessarily the most helpful. Despite our complaints about the bathroom, we heard no acknowledgement about our concerns, but were just continually offered an upgraded room with a view (an ocean view does not make up for the decrepit bathrooms). Staff's positive attitudes are not nearly enough to overcome the quality of the service and accommodations offered by the Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel.

Cons: My wife fell, while holding our daughter, while getting into the pool on a very slippery first step. Two other guests told us about their similar experience during their stay. It was our first day of our vacation and my wife spent the week with a bruised spine and a big scratch. The Aston took pictures of her injury but did nothing about it.

5,1
Pros: Location is good.
Cons: The actual room we are staying in is smallish and dated, but the location is pretty decent - south end of Waikiki nearer to Diamond Head. Probably rates as 4 stars, but I have to demote it because of the aggressive timeshare people patrolling their lobby to intercept guests. After a long 13+ hours of travel, we arrived exhausted to be greeted by a young lady literally right off the elevator opening onto the lobby floor. She promised to help us get settled and seemed to be someone with the hotel. In fact, she works for Diamond Resorts, a company trying to re-brand timeshare scams into modern points-based vacation packages. What we thought was the hotel helping us get checked in and settled turned into a sales pitch about discounts on various tours, etc. if we just attended a presentation the next morning. The presentation was pitched as 2 hours, and no obligation, etc. We were pretty dazed from the travel and they were talking about saving hundreds of $ for a short presentation, so we agreed to this. You can (and should) google Diamond Resorts and educate yourself about them, and that's another story. We didn't buy anything, but they used super aggressive sales tactics and eventually basically insulted us for not agreeing to play ball and part with several thousand dollars on the spot. Here's the rub - as I was (later) researching Diamond Resorts, some of the cautionary tales about them I read were from people ambushed at other Aston properties - Maui, etc. So, I canned my plan to complain to the manager here, because clearly they condone, if not support, the Diamond Resorts people. Not sure, they might even be owned by the same private equity firm (Apollo). So, I recommend avoiding all Aston properties, as they allow their guests to be harassed and ambushed by overly aggressive scam artists.

Pros: Good location. yeah, that's it. and there's tons of other hotels on the beach. I would elsewhere other than Aston brand seeing how they're managed.
Cons: Staff was not organized and not caring. They gave key to our room to other guests. I don't know if it's good or bad we were in the room at the time. Assuming they only did it once. A hotel employee even tried to let people in. Hint - new, empty rooms don't have the Do Not Disturb sign hanging on the door. They called us twice after 11PM trying to sort out their mistake in booking.. I complained to staff, no reaction. When i was checking out, they didn't ask how my stay was, otherwise i would've complained again. BTW, there were 4 workers just standing there when i checked out, so it's not like they were rushed. Small gym, small pool, big resort fee. Still have to pay $30/night for parking. Make sure you add $60+/day to your expected price your paying. Two sets of keys stopped working at the same time. they claim they both got demagnitized. 2 sets of keys kept in separate places at the exact same time? they screwed up. They didn't clean the room every day, even when empty from 6am-12. Bathroom stank of mildew. Safe didn't close reliably. Hair dryer only worked on 2 of 3 settings. We didn't get our welcome bag of sunscreen until second day of our stay, again pointing out they screwed up in the system. Refrigerator froze all liquids inside, not just in the icebox. No way to adjust it. Lots of drunk biker gang guys at the pool bar at night. They staggered into our private party. They have a weird elevator system where you have to press your room key and punch in the floor outside the elevator. there's no buttons inside. and you can't go from the rooms to the ground level. you have to stop at the 3rd floor in either direction. The first day i was confused and i asked the staff how to get to the ground floor, he told me i had to valet. i said i just want to get to the parking area and he just kept telling me i have to valet and pointed to the lobby. Elevators were broken every night.

Pros: The hotel is conveniently located right across the Waikiki beach, with a lot of great restaurants and boutique shops near by. There are also big shopping centers in the neighborhood.
Cons: Other than location, Aston doesn't have much to offer. We were really disappointed at the service as front desk staffs are not so friendly and helpful. I booked a Partial Ocean View room with king size bed, but they gave us a standard room with 2 double size bed. Mandatory unwanted additional service package deals are also added with a charge. The way how the hotel operated made us feel like Aston is "Cheap".

Next time I will totally stay at a place that does not allow kids. This place was packed with people wall-to-wall. Too many people. Everywhere we went you had to wait.
Located in Waikiki, this luxury hotel is within a 15-minute walk of Duke Kahanamoku Beach and Ala Moana Center. Royal Hawaiian Center and Waikiki Beach are also within 1 mi (2 km).

We booked through Priceline on one of the "blind deals" so we knew we were taking a risk when we purchased our hotel. The staff that we encountered at the desk and concierge were very nice and pointed us in the right direction several times. The hotel is not right on the beach, it's close, but no beachfront. The location is also a few miles from the main beach in Waikiki. This was a bit of a bummer when we discovered this. There was one pool that was not heated and was constantly full of children; there is no jacuzzi or adult pool. What they advertise as an "adult-only" pool is actually a 6" deep wading pool full of sunbathing chairs. Probably due to Covid and lack of resources, the bar at the "adult" pool was never opened, so one had to go from the 2nd-floor adult pool to the 1st-floor children's pool to get a cocktail. With a $39 per night "resort fee" we found the resort amenities lacking. The cafe was a fast-food-style service, no restaurant available where you could sit and be served. Housekeeping did not enter the room at all while we were there; we had to ask for fresh bedding and towels, but then had to unmake and make our own bed and leave the old laundry outside the door. Trash wasn't emptied at all during our stay. Again, this is probably due to Covid, and we tried to be understanding, but at over $200 per night, one would hope to have trash emptied or beds made while we were out at the beach or pool area. In the end, we wish we had spent an extra $20 or so per night for a hotel in Waikiki that had a better pool area and more dining options.

Pros: I love everything about The Modern Really cool friendly atmosphere, all the staff are super nice. The room is very clean, modern, crisp, has pretty of room. Our partial view room had a nice balcony and as suggest had views to the left of the water. Great TV and selection of channels, coffee maker. Very well sound proofed Bathroom is large, great shower. Room service is fantastic, actually its the same menu available in the pool area, perfectly prepared and very high quality. The pool areas and bars are amazing The is away from the Main part of Waikiki, overlooking the marina, making it less busy and more relaxing Do yourself a favour and book in
Cons: Not sure, maybe the bed is a little firm. Just being picky

Pros: The view was beautiful, valet staff were great.
Cons: Resort fee not presented at check in, expensive parking. Staff very unaccomodating for early check in. Asked us to call multiple times throughout the week, up to the actual 3pm check in time which we were asked to wait for our room anyways, while others in line after us were getting their room keys. A double room was booked via Kayak but wasn't available at check in so we were given an "upgraded" suite with a sofa bed. The mattress pad was stained with urine and the linens were not the cleanest. The furniture is all white so stains were noticeable on the pillows. Felt very dirty. Very disappointed in the service of this hotel under their new mainland management.

This was an incredibly frustrating customer service experience.

Pros: Beautiful hotel. Study bar is nice with good cocktails, rooms are nice and housekeeping is good. Difficult to find space at pools and they don't have chairs on the beach. During peak times like Christmas / NY it makes it tough to secure space. Service at the restaurant by the pool was very slow. Painfully slow... I would return but challenged to stay there again @ $500/ night unless everything is perfect.

Pros: I liked that the hotel was located near the harbor. A short 1 mile walk form downtown Waikiki and not too crowded with many surrounding hotels. Definitely an adult resort, although I did see a few kids. Staff was super friendly, views of the marina and ocean were great. Access to the beach just a short walk although from beaches on O'ahu this was the worst strip of ocean I visited. I'd suggest staying here and enjoying the beach elsewhere. Liked the details of the ukulele, sea shells and sarongs as décor. Room was ready early. Room was quiet and simply decorated with all white giving a feel of space. Clothes line in the shower for wet swimsuits was a plus!
Cons: The hallways were VERY dark and room numbers a bit tricky to see. Valet parking only at $35/day.

Pros: From the incredible concierge and front desk staff to the warm service and incredible food poolside to the ultra-luxury modern (but not in a cheesy, cheap way) rooms that were comfortable and expertly furnished they did not miss a spot.

Pros: The pool and Cassandra was amazing.
Cons: 1) Please update your rooms, everything is falling apart. 2) The $40.00 per day resort fee is excessive when you don’t offer room service for an entire 7 day stay not feature and dining options at night. 3) Offering a “free gift” which is basically your way to convince people to buy a time share is unnecessary. 4) Please train Courtney to be more friendly and how to treat customers. Without customers she would have no job.

Pros: Love it. Honolulu is known for old resorts and hotels. Modern's building isnt really new, however, all the internals have been renovated so that it feels "modern". Great stay for young hip couples.
Cons: Parking is a little expensive. $35 and they charge you everything you get your car in and out. Other than that, we had an awesome experience.
Located in Waikiki, this hotel is within a 10-minute walk of Waikiki Beach Walk and Royal Hawaiian Center. Hawaii Convention Center and Waikiki Beach are also within 15 minutes.

Pros: The Ambassador Hotel has a wonderfully responsiveness staff who were willing to help. For example, our toddler locked us out of the in-room safe and a maintenance person came immediately to open it. The hotel also has filtered water machines and re-usable bottles, which I liked. The gym and laundry were good. The hotel is about a 5 minute walk from the beach.
