Top Kaka'ako Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Waikiki by IHG

8/10 Good

"Room was very small but everything was clean. Parking was impossible at this location. They will refund if you are unable to find parking. Breakfast and hotel amenities were great. Staff was amazing!!"

Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Waikiki

10/10 Excellent

"It was a very nice hotel, the beginning part of Waikiki so makes it easier to access. There was a little bit of problem with changing dates due to a change in airline travel dates, but eventually it got cleared up. The room was nice and the bed was very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again. The Parking was a little bit limited and could be come very crowded but they did assure me that if I were not able to find a stall that they would also help me with an overflow lot which we never had to do but nice to know that it's available."

Sheraton Princess Kaiulani Waikiki Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Loved location of this hotel being close to restaurants, stores and beach. Pool was cold but clean. Room was spacious and clean. Great to have access to water fountain to fill our bottles daily. Excellent lobby lounge to sit and chat or just relax. Loved fish pond and waterfall. Live music nightly was great too. Would have been nice to be made aware of play area with pool table and ping pong but we found it! Trolley tours close by"
