When booking, be sure to "reserve" a parking space, because the parking lot has a limited number.

"This budget boutique hotel just one block from Waikiki Beach makes up in convenience (and price) what it lacks in luxury."

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

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."
