Hilton Garden Inn Waikiki Beach

"Moderately priced hotel..."good enough" but not luxury by any means. Rooms - Clean. standard fare, a tad smaller than your typical Hampton Inn. Fridge and microwave. Sink out side the bathroom. The shower was really nice. No queen beds, it's either double or king. No bad smells. Inner rooms (facing away from street), the view stinks: only other apartments and hotels. Parking - valet only. now $55/day. Super friendly, they hustle! Most of the time, about 10 minute wait. The first day, was close to 20 minutes due to them misplacing key. Staff is great! Busiest time is 6-8 am, so give yourself more time then. Location - so convenient being close to International market. There is a fairly big grocery store, Waikiki Market, one building over to the east (second floor, up the steps). Value - Meh...All hotels are expensive in Hawaii, so just be prepared for the sticker shock."

"Rooms here were nice but the beds were too firm for my liking. The hotel was in a great location to shops and restaurants. You must checkout Duke's Lane for buying souvenirs from the local. Less than a 10 minute walk from the hotel. The beach rental location was quite a distance from the hotel and was just easier to rent from the beach vendors. Overall, nice hotel."

"I loved my stay. Large rooms. Close to the beach, you have a private balcony, convenience store on site as well as a restaurant/bar. Your in the heart of all the stores, eateries and supermarkets of Waikiki. It's a beautiful section and has public transportation close by. Bring your flip flops."

"We had a 5 star experience. At first our room faced the construction but the person at the front desk was able to help us get a different room. Everyone that we interacted with that worked at the hotel was friendly and helpful. The room itself was a comfortable place to rest after a long day. We especially liked the water pressure in our clean bathroom. We had no issues. We also had a great price when compared to other hotels."

"The hotel has many great things about it. Location, amenities, and comfortable rooms. Be warned that most rooms do not have a desk, which if traveling for work can be an issue. Beds are comfortable, and bathrooms have sufficient room. Pool was nice. Front desk staff can be a little impatient and slightly rude. The wait for valet cars can also be really lengthy at peak times. Is it perfect? No, but it’s a decent value."
