Lonely Planet "The only true mega-resort in Waikiki, the 22-acre Hilton is a self-contained, fantasy island 'village'."
DK Eyewitness "Situated on the widest stretch of Waikīkī Beach, this huge hotel has six towers, five pools, over 90 shops, 20 lounges and restaurants, a spa, and tropical gardens."
Star Service "This remains Waikiki's biggest and best all-around resort, and like its Waikoloa sibling, it has at least a little something for everyone." Full review

Guests booked here should request even-numbered units for views of the marina and downtown Honolulu or odd-numbered units on upper floors for postcard panoramas of Diamond Head.
Gayot "This non-smoking hotel celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2011 and remains one of the largest oceanfront resorts in the world."
BlackBook "Glitzy, glamorous Hawaiian Village is a city unto itself. The hotel is the largest Hilton in the world and promises constant activities."
Zagat4.2
"A "mini-city of its own", this "classic" "high-energy" high-rise "super-resort" sits on a "wide" stretch of beach in the "heart of Waikiki" and boasts "moon-over-the-ocean" views."
The Telegraph6.0

Frommer's "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."
OysterMid-Range
"It's a good value and convenient, though the building is a bit worn down." Full review
Lonely Planet "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
Travel + Leisure "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."
