"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
"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
"Although the rooms at this boutique hotel are small, the fabulous location on Sans Souci Beach... more than makes up for them."
"Intimate, Japanese-toned beachfront hotel half a mile east of central Waikiki."
"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
"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."
"Just enough off the beaten path to be in the mix but still far away to avoid the busy beaches."
"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
"Waikiki's only boutique property located directly on the sand of Kaimana Beach...the hotel maintains its casual style and modern-boho aesthetic. "

"The once-historic Ilikai has the makings of a great hotel -- massive, clean rooms, an elegant open-air lobby, a newly refurbished pool, and a well-equipped fitness center." Full review
"Conveniently located between Waikīkī and Ala Moana Center, the guest rooms here are spacious and situated in two towers with views of Ala Wai Yacht Harbor and the ocean."
"The hotel is split almost evenly between well-proportioned hotel accommodations and one- and two-bedroom time-share and condominium accommodations. " Full review
"The sports and fitness center has six tennis courts, and the hotel is home to an esteemed Italian restaurant, Sarento's Top of the I, which offers stunning, 30th-floor views."
"One of the very first hotels in mid-century Waikiki, part of the acclaim (and niche) comes from its star playing role in Hawaii Five-O."
7.0
