My husband and I went to Hawaii for a wedding. We couldn't believe it when we got to the hotel ! We really felt like we got more than our money's worth. Parking was extra but it's Hawaii - it's always extra at any hotel in Hawaii. That's a given. The hotel room was pristine. The decor was extremely dated and the furnishings did show wear but it was extremely clean and that's more important than having "modern" furnishings. All the rooms are ocean view rooms and the view was indeed magnificent! Would we stay there again? Most definitely "YES". We went with another couple and they loved it just as much. Staff was friendly, accomodating and knowledgeable. Walking disance to Ala Moana shopping center. The Japanese restaurant on the premise was very, very good and is considered one of the better Japanese restaurants around anyway. This hotel far exceeded our expectations when compared with the cost.

We loved this hotel. Everyone was friendly, the room was clean, and the ocean view was beautiful. The coffee cart in the lobby had a nice local touch (Spam musubis!). It's also located on the west end of Waikiki closer to Ala Moana shopping center, so you can somewhat avoid the Waikiki traffic. There is a National and Alamo office conveniently located right across the street. One regret is that we didn't get to try any of the hotel restaurants or spa services this time. We stayed at another Prince Hotel (Maui Prince) for our wedding several years ago and had a similarly great experience.

Room just needed to be more updated. Funny smell when we first walked in but realized it was the seafood/sushi buffet on 2nd floor. Walking distance to shops and the mall but had to walk next door to the Hiltons for beach access. Their pool wasn't exciting-it was kind of plain in fact and I think only 3.5 or 4 feet deep. Room had great amenities. They provided you with sewing, shaving kit and their shampoo set was nice n minty. Towels were big huge sheets. You can also save a lot of money by stocking a small empty fridge they provide you with. I didn't like the fact that they didn't have wifi. I couldn't plug my computer directly so I had to keep going downstairs in their business area and pay $0.20 per minute to use their desk tops to check my emails. Also a cafe/food was not available 24hrs within the hotel. Hotel also appeared to entertain a lot of Japanese travelers as shops, restaurants and concierge were available in that language. Felt ok until I saw some of the other lavish hotels with their own large man made lagoon and beach front activities. But our room had huge floor to ceiling views of the beach-r Hilton, for example had a mall within their hotels. Not sure about price at other places though. Also ABC market is just around the corner as well as McDonalds, Outback Steakhouse, Red Lobster. i recommend going to Kobes Steakhouse-just few minutes more. And don't buy your souvenirs in the area. If you get the chance to drive, go to the Aloha Stadium on Wed and Saturday. You'll find the same items from $1-3. Wish I had known this first instead of blowing $300 first nigh.
