Hotels in Waikiki, Honolulu

As someone who's been to Hawaii three times, I highly recommend this hotel. First off, the room rates are significantly lower than those in Waikiki, yet the room size and views absolutely blow away similarly priced or even more expensive options in Waikiki. Secondly, parking is cheap; there's metered parking right downstairs at $1 an hour, costing a maximum of about ten dollars a day, which is a steal compared to hotels that charge $40-$50 a day. It's perfect for those who are driving. Lastly, the sushi on the first floor is delicious, and most importantly, affordable.

The hotel's location is great. Even though it's not beachfront, it's super convenient for exploring Kalakaua Avenue and a short walk to the beach. The room didn't come with toiletries or slippers. The parking garage has multiple levels, but one night when we returned after 10 PM, there were no spots left, so we had to park in a mall partnered with the hotel.

My wife and I had a wonderful four-night stay at Halepuna Waikiki by Halekulani, and we genuinely could not have been happier with our experience. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, professional, and welcoming. The hotel is beautifully maintained, exceptionally clean, and has a calm, elegant atmosphere that makes it feel like a peaceful escape while still being perfectly located in the heart of Waikiki. Our King Ocean View room was beautiful, comfortable, and very well maintained. The staff were consistently friendly and attentive, and we really appreciated the attention to detail throughout our stay. The location is fantastic—close to the beach, restaurants, shopping, and everything Waikiki has to offer, while still feeling quiet and relaxing. We also stayed at the Royal Hawaiian during this trip, and although it is an iconic property, I would personally choose Halepuna Waikiki over the Royal Hawaiian and would much rather stay at Halepuna again on our next visit. For us, the overall experience, service, cleanliness, comfort, and peaceful atmosphere at Halepuna were simply better. Halepuna feels luxurious without being pretentious, and we left with genuinely wonderful memories. Without hesitation, we would stay here again and highly recommend Halepuna Waikiki, especially for couples visiting Honolulu. A true 5/5 experience.

It's not a new building. It felt like staying at my grandma's house. There was some black mold in the bathtub and the pillow smelled a bit (though my nose might just be too sensitive). It wasn't unhygienic, but don't expect a new, sparkling clean room. They lent me a kettle and pool towels, which was nice. The staff were very good. The location is excellent for swimming as the sea is very close. The best part is the cost-performance. For this price, with breakfast, partial ocean view, and in a good location, it's fantastic. The food was delicious every day! I especially liked the miso soup and the three kinds of fruit. Even on the day of the typhoon when the power went out, they still let us have the buffet and eat in our rooms!

No kidding, I've stayed at this hotel before, about eight years ago, and I had such a great experience that I decided to book it again this time. The hotel's location is fantastic; turn left for the beach and right for the commercial street. I opted for a sea-view room, and sitting on the balcony enjoying the scenery truly gives you that vacation feeling!

I stayed for one night, and when I mentioned at check-in that it was my first time, the staff kindly escorted me to my room and gave me a detailed explanation of its features. It was very helpful! The hotel is very spacious, but everything was clean, and there was plenty of space by the pool, so I was able to relax and enjoy my stay.

I stayed here with three friends. It's a 10-minute walk to Ala Moana Center and close to Magic Island and Kahanamoku Beach. They offer free daily activities like lei making and yoga, which made our stay very enjoyable. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. I highly recommend this hotel.

It was a room with a view of the diamond head and the sea. I was a little worried about the height because I wanted a clear view of the sea, but I was satisfied with the Lanai overlooking the two without any problems. It is old as a whole, the bathtub is old, and it takes time to get hot water.

The room was very clean, and the pool was great for swimming and sunbathing. Stepping out of the hotel, you're right on Waikiki Beach's commercial street, making it convenient for dining and shopping. We stayed on the 9th floor, looking down at a rooftop. The downside was that the music from what seemed to be other hotels' bars nearby was quite loud late at night, which could affect light sleepers. The hotel breakfast was typical American, but offered average value for money. The hotel's parking lot uses a mezzanine style, so remember your spot when coming and going.

スタッフの接客がとても丁寧で、朝ごはんも種類が沢山ありどれもおいしかったです。 立地が良く、部屋は広くてセンスのいいインテリアで清潔でした。 屋上のプールも素晴らしかったです。 3泊しましたが次はもっと長く泊まりたいと思います。
