Star Service

"This non-smoking hotel celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2011 and remains one of the largest oceanfront resorts in the world."

"Rooms are in two towers—some peer at the ocean over the Moana's low-rise historic wing. It's a two-minute stroll to the beach." Full review

Mid-Range
"It's nicely located -- in the heart of Waikiki -- but worn, noisy rooms, a limited staff, and poor maintenance drag this Sheraton below the standards of its competitors." Full review
Lonely Planet
"The wide, open lobby of the Sheraton Princess Kaiulani is perhaps Waikiki's best spot for people-watching." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"Along with spectacular views of natural blue Pacific and Diamond Head, the hotel showed its eco-commitment with heat pumps and exchangers to recover waste heat for hot water." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"This comfortable hotel
has all the advantages of a Sheraton without the
oceanfront prices."
Star Service
"Located in central Waikiki opposite the Moana Surfrider, this is Sheraton's entry level hotel in Waikiki, a tried and true midrange "resort" for the masses." Full review
Gayot
"Across the street from Waikiki Beach and next door to the International Marketplace, this hotel occupies the beachside estate of Hawaii's Princess Kaiulani."
BlackBook
"Not for those who crave oceanfront luxury, but more of an off beach tourist hotel with droves of international visitors and just a few Americans."
Frommer's
"This hotel is prized for its moderate rates (for a Sheraton)." Full review
