Stayed here for 4 nights in early May. Location was fantastic, a block from the beautiful beach and in the middle of busy Waikiki. An average Holiday Inn - comfortable beds, good sized room, fridge & coffee machine. We were on 18th floor with a partial beach view. After staying in the middle of Times Square in New York we...

If you want to stay in Honolulu and want a good value hotel then this is what I would recommend mainly because of its location. The hotel is only a block from Waikiki beach so a 3 minute walk and you are by the sea. The hotel is also very close to several shops and restaurants. A Starbucks is just... More

We had a great 4 nights here. Room was spacious, layout practical. Tea/ coffee facilities there, although limited to one cup each per day which is a bit miserly. Fridge there too. We were on 14th floor with views down to marketplace and right to beaches that were only a few hundred metres away. Loved the balcony and listening to... More

This was my 7th trip to Honolulu, but my first stay at Waikiki Beachcomber. My husband and I stayed 7 nights in a partial ocean view room on the 18th floor. Our room was clean, the bed comfortable, and we appreciated having an in-room coffee maker and refrigerator. The lanai was tiny, and the partial ocean view was partly obstructed... More

Stayed in this hotel for 5 nights and it was great. We had breakfast 3 mornings and 2 mornings it was fabulous and the 3 was ordinary, possibly a different chef. The staff at reception where very accomodating and helpfull. the location was very central to shopping, restaurants and the beach not more than about 250m.

This hotel is right in the heart of the action, so if you like busy, this place is for you. Very nice rooms, big, clean, with fantastic beds ( we had a twin room, ocean view.)

Why go all the way to Waikiki and stay here? The rooms are ok sized and clean, but really need a better renovation. This is a mediocre example of the new branded Holiday Inn. Not on the beach and not really even much of a view. I was upgraded to a partial ocean view. Don't waste your money on that.... More
