"An upgrade from the cramped standard rooms is worth it at this 125-room beachfront hotel in a mellow area a half-mile outside of Waikiki." Full review
Lonely Planet "For a little more privacy and seclusion, the New Otani offers well-kept, small rooms and its own beach about a half mile from the throbbing heart of Waikiki." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Although the rooms at this boutique hotel are small, the fabulous location on Sans Souci Beach... more than makes up for them."
Rough Guide "Intimate, Japanese-toned beachfront hotel half a mile east of central Waikiki."
Star Service "An unusual offshoot from this usually business-centric chain, Waikiki’s New Otani boasts a breezy tropical backdrop and one of the best beachfront locations in Waikiki." Full review
Gayot "This hotel offers a pleasant oceanfront setting and a location that is just far enough from the bustle of Waikiki to keep those seeking peace and quiet happy."
BlackBook "Just enough off the beaten path to be in the mix but still far away to avoid the busy beaches."
Frommer's "This is one of Waikiki's best-kept secrets: a boutique hotel nestled right on a lovely stretch of beach at the foot of Diamond Head, with Kapiolani Park just across the street." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Waikiki's only boutique property located directly on the sand of Kaimana Beach...the hotel maintains its casual style and modern-boho aesthetic. "

"With its all-suite guest rooms (one and two bedrooms), this Embassy Suites is a favorite among travelers looking for extra wiggle room and easy access to the beach." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Just a block from the ocean, this all-suite hotel consists of two 21-story towers framing the Waikiki Beach Walk shopping mall, which houses 40 stores and six restaurants." Full review
Star Service "Located in the heart of the mixed-use Beach Walk development, this all-suite operation is one of the cornerstones of Beachwalk Street's 21st-century renaissance." Full review
Gayot "In a town where hotel rooms rule and larger accommodations usually mean two rooms adjoining or adjacent, it is great to know that Embassy Suites has moved into the Waikiki Beach Walk area."
BlackBook "What a great addition to suite starved Waikiki. The modern and bright one and two bedroom suites provide ample room for those with Hawaii family vacations in mind."
Lonely Planet "Near the beach, restaurants and nightlife...beige and brown suites big enough for families or groups. Each suite comes with a microwave, mini-fridge, sofa bed, one or two bedrooms and balcony." Full review
