'Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach

Extremely relaxing and perfect for babymooners like ourselves

Hotel is very loud. I heard people arguing and yelling on the street and a number of emergency vehicles throughout the night. I was on the 14 th floor and the room service and doors for other rooms were very loud. I didn’t sleep well at this hotel and will not go back; loudest 5 Star hotel I have ever experienced.

First time in Hawaii. We booked another of the more recognizable resorts, but switched when I came across the Alohilani - a totally renovated beachside resort with a more appealing look, at least online. We were thrilled with our decision. The rooms are reasonably sized (you're in Hawaii...hjow much time are you spending there anyway?), though the bathroom was a bit small - hard to open the door to get out because of the floor layout. Rain shower was nice though. The beds are flawless - sleep, with the sound of the ocean or the room ac, comes easy. Other then the loud bang of room doors - a security feature to make sure the door is locked when you leave - the hallways are very quiet. The hotel boasts new restaurants, one by Iron Chef Morimotto, and a fantastic roof pool with bar and small bites. Service was excellent from start to finish, the waitresses at the roof bar were some of the most naturally friendly we've ever encountered (ask one if she ever looked up Bananarama songs?) and the concierge staff was very helpful. There are plenty of awesome places to eat within walking distance. Tiki's is huge hit with us - it's authentically elevated beach food, high quality and great service and decent prices. Lulu's was our fave breakfast spot. Get there early. Zigu is a new Japanese place with creative dishes that blew us away, also reasonably priced.

This is one of my most pleasant hotel experiences in the past 5 years.

The Alohilani Hotel was newly renovated, very clean, and the pool area was amazing. The only downside was the pricing for food, especially the breakfast buffet. For my family of 3 its was $120. The hotel is a stones throw away from the beach, all stores and restaurants are in close walking distance. Over all great experience.
