"Formerly a very neglected budget hotel just a block from Waikiki Beach, Bamboo has been transformed into a contemporary "condotel" (a condominium/hotel) with an Asian flair." Full review

When booking, be sure to "reserve" a parking space, because the parking lot has a limited number.
Concierge
"This budget boutique hotel just one block from Waikiki Beach makes up in convenience (and price) what it lacks in luxury."

"Step into the stylish lobby of Bamboo and you'll feel soothed. Bamboo is a decent choice, especially if you cop a discount rate." Full review

"Perhaps the hotel’s best feature is its pool area, which is surrounded by bamboo and tropical plants, and is adjacent to the two-room spa." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"A smallish hotel offering studios and suites with standard, contemporary island decor; the upper floors of this high-rise have great views."
Star Service
"Located around the corner from Ohanas East and West, in the thick of Waikiki's tumultuous flip-flop-fueled activity, this property is a vibrant boutique-condominium-hotel with a loyal repeat clientele." Full review

Deeply discounted packages make this a great value and a fun alternative to the larger Ohana and Outrigger hotels, but be sure to snag a room facing the relatively tranquil court in back or bring some ear plugs.
Gayot
"This modern, non-smoking hotel offers a chic and stylish retreat from everyday life."

"Its location—a 10-minute walk from the Hawaii Convention Center—and its 24-hour business center and gym meet the requirements of the Doubletree's global business clientele." Full review

"It's a decent choice for business and the rooms were renovated in late 2010." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"This small boutique hotel has a great reputation for hospitality."
Star Service
"The Doubletree Alana is an underdog that is frequently overlooked in favor of the landmark, midrange properties closer to the beach." Full review

Deluxe corner units on the top three floors are the ones to request.
Gayot
"This renovated boutique hotel offers the perfect location for business travelers and vacationers alike."
BlackBook
"Just around the corner from the Hawaii Convention Center, this off-beach property attracts a business crowd rather than a funseeking one."
