3-Star Hotels in Hawaii, United States

Took 40 mins for the shuttle to arrive, was given breakfast voucher but left too early the next morning. WIFI was very unstable, which was incredibly frustrating. The staff members were very nice, the room was old but very clean. Ok for a sleep before you go to te airport next day.

We travel 3-5 times a year from Maui, and love staying at the Best Western Plaza Hotel. The staff is great, my daughter loves the pool, and we love waking up and going down to get breakfast every morning.

The hotel itself is better than expected; You can tell that they went through a massive renovation in order to give a chill vibes based stay (on the outside). Inside of the room, it’s definitely an old hotel… I liked the furniture, but the windows were too open for my liking (you get the feeling that anyone can look into your room); Not as much of an issue since we used the curtains! The bath towels were covered in hair (ranging from long strands to tiny ***** pieces) which I found to be disgusting. The staff were more than willing to switch out the towels (there was still hair on them but a little dusting off mainly did the job). There was tiny ***** hair pieces in the bathtub as well, but I washed them down the drain so no biggie. The main issue that I had with this stay was that you could hear everything that was going on in rooms next door or outside. We heard loud screaming and fighting into the early ams, and it took a while for them to stop. This is not the hotel’s fault, but if you do stay here, keep in mind that the rooms aren’t very spacious, you can hear everything, and there might be hair in your towels. Overall, I really loved staying here and found it to be quite charming. The view in front of the hotel is INSANE. Though I listed negative traits about this hotel, I feel that it’s important to give some transparency to readers of this review. Mostly everyone goes into a hotel thinking that it’s 1000% clean and perfect. However, for me, the negative reviews are what I look for so that I know what to expect. You will definitely love the vibes and views this hotel has to offer, as well as the friendliness of the staff who worlds here.

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.

Super central location. The staff were extremely helpful. The carpet in the room had a slight odor and the bathroom was a bit small.

So, there were no toiletries and they did not provide though we requested - simple toiletries like toothbrush, tooth paste and razors. This was unlike other hotels which we stayed in O'ahu and Kauai, they were given upon request and given daily knowing that you have requested the 1st day. The pillows were soft and when we requested for them, they came back with 'unavailable', though they managed to get them the next day. The room was made, except for the beds (interesting) and cup was not washed though we left it soaked by the basin for the ease of the housekeeper. The counter that provided beach towels closed by 5pm? The pool is quiet and dead. Haha. Its an average stay.

This resort struck a great balance for our trip, offering far more convenience than the famous 5-star brand resorts we drove past. Those isolated properties have fewer neighborhood options and are probably better for visitors who only want to stay inside the hotel grounds. The resort’s location is incredible, featuring a private beach area right on the property. We loved that we could literally swim with fish just a couple of steps away from our hotel room. The on-site Restaurant is superb, featuring delicious food and a very friendly staff. The location is also incredibly convenient, offering plenty of additional dining options within an easy walkable distance. We highly appreciated the complimentary yoga and fitness classes offered to guests during our stay. The on-site tennis court is incredibly accessible and reasonably priced at just $10 per person a day. The daily tennis fee conveniently includes complimentary rackets and balls （and even water) for your matches. Guests are welcome to play for as many hours as they want, as long as the court remains available.

The location is fantastic! It's only a 5-minute walk to Waikiki Beach. They offer free luggage storage for suitcases and backpacks throughout your stay (until check-out), and you can easily retrieve or deposit items by simply asking at the front desk. When I checked in around 3 PM, there was a Japanese-speaking woman at the front desk, and in the evening, it was an English-speaking man. The facilities are generally clean, quiet, and problem-free. The common area has basic amenities like an electric kettle and a microwave, so you can eat and drink there. I would definitely consider staying here again if I have the chance.

My flight arrived in the morning. I went to the hotel to drop off my luggage, only to be told that my room wasn't ready yet. They called me at 1 PM to let me know I could check in. I was lucky to get a room with a balcony. However, it seems there's only one room with a balcony per floor, so it's a rare occurrence. The room was very clean. It's a 2-minute walk to the beach, and the bus to Diamond Head is very convenient. Relatively speaking, it's quite good value for money.

We were a bit disappointed initially with the cleanliness as there was a stain on the bed sheet upon entering the room. Thankfully, housekeeping changed it within the hour. The place is located in a central location, close to the beachfront at Waikiki, with a partnership with beachfront stores for beach equipment, as well as GoPros, sunscreen, lotion etc. that can be borrowed, included in the resort rate. However, the age of the hotel is really starting to show, it is in need of not just a touch up but an overhaul where possible. To be fair, the price, especially that paid for during this period, was a fair representation especially compared to neighbouring downtown hotels, given you do receive much more space and a kitchenette with microwave in the case of the 1 bedroom suite. However, I would say that I would have enjoyed my stay far more if at least some work was put in to modernise the space. In particular, my bathtub had peeling paint, and the colours of the room need some work.
