Ala Moana Honolulu by Mantra

"Very convenient, close to the mall, restaurants, and the ocean. You can take a bus from the airport to the mall/hotel. The pool is nice with fun seating. The room was simple and clean. Very pleased with the stay!"

"Horrible hotel! They have made some cosmetic improvements in their public areas, but the rooms are terrible! You know you’re in trouble as soon as you step off the elevator to go to your room, the hallway ceilings are low, it’s dark, and there’s a smell. Then, when you get to the room, it’s clear that it’s not been upgraded, the refrigerator sits out a good 8 inches from the cabinet it’s supposed to fit into. The carpet is dirty. The bathtub is supposed to be upgraded, it looks like it’s sitting on a platform, as a result, as a 5 foot tall woman, standing in the bathtub, I can touch the ceiling, this is clearly a problem since I have to step down about 2 1/2 feet to get out of it. A black slate floor was installed. However, the bathroom is not being properly cleaned as the baseboards are disgusting and the grout lines in the shower are also nasty. We moved out on day two of a six day trip. There was not a chance I was going to be able to stay there and enjoy my time in Hawaii. We did not find the location of value value, there were little to no views from the windows, even though we selected Oceanview rooms. While the shopping center is attached, we did not find the food selection available desirable."

"What a great, centrally located, place to stay. It's perfectly located within walking distance of a bunch of local shops and the mall which made it's location extremely convenient. The hotel room was pretty average, it had two queen beds and a balcony but the bathroom was rather tiny. The view from the balcony was really nice, overlooking the marina and Ala Moana beach. The lobby was perfectly equipped with a little shops and a Starbucks. I do wish it had room service though. Instead it had connecting eateries that you could order and pick up or get delivered to the lobby. The concierge didn't speak English so that was annoying. The parking garage was a bit of a mess. They allowed people to park there that weren't staying at the hotel which caused a lot of overflow. It was difficult to find parking and the parking tickets never worked. Luckily, there was always a parking attendant. I'd consider staying there again if I ever go back to Honolulu."

"The rooms were spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable so I slept quite well. The rooms are equipped with a small fridge, a microwave and coffee maker. The bath has full sized divinely coconut scented shampoo, conditioner and body wash attatched the wall. Less things to pack if you don't use specific products. I had a decent view of the ocean. It's also a very short walk to Ala Moana park where there were people swimming laps and paddle boarding. Ala Moana is more local/family oriented and not as busy as Waikiki. Waikiki is about a 30 min walk or 8 min drive if you are interested in that. I will definitely recommend this hotel and can't wait to stay here again"
