Frommer's "Not only do you get the value and quality of the Outrigger chain... you also get a terrific Waikiki Beach location and prices much lower than this property's neighbors." Full review
Fodor's "Renovated in 2012, this star of Outrigger Hotels & Resorts sits on one of the finest strands of Waikiki Beach." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"It's location over luxury at the 524-room Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach -- it's in the heart of the action on one of Waikiki's best beaches." Full review
Lonely Planet "If you want a heavy-duty party atmosphere, the Outrigger Waikiki is your ticket. It sits on perhaps the most popular stretch of Waikiki beach, where you can see and be seen, day and night." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This oceanfront hotel is the jewel in the crown of the Outrigger chain. The 500 guest rooms feature Polynesian decor."
Star Service "Plunked down between The Royal Hawaiian and Moana Surfrider, this remains one of Waikiki's most efficiently run beachfront hotels." Full review
BlackBook "The beachfront setting is more than breathtaking, the location is better than most and rocks with lots of restaurants, shops, bars and entertainment."
Afar Magazine "It’s right on the beach, just north of the main resort cluster, and though a short walk to the middle of the action, far enough to feel out of the fray." Full review
Gayot "The best feature at the Outrigger's flagship property is its central location on the beach in the middle of Waikiki."
Lonely Planet "The 524 rooms are generic and look like they could be anywhere in the world, but at least they're close to the beach (and have balconies and fridges). " Full review

"Legend has it King Kamehameha built his royal bungalow on the site where the Sheraton... now stands -- and the location really is that picturesque and convenient." Full review
Lonely Planet "People are constantly coming and going and if you stop, the crowd might just whisk you away." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Sleek and modern, this 1,700-room hotel towers over the prime location on the beach at Waikīkī – most of the rooms have spectacular ocean views."
Star Service "This hotel may be ranked No. 2 in size behind the Hilton Hawaiian Village, but it is a bustling beehive of activity in an excellent location, and individuals and groups both big and small do well here." Full review
Gayot "One of the largest hotels in Waikiki happens to be so close to the water that its retaining walls jut into the high water mark."
BlackBook "At the heart of Waikiki, the Sheraton has a gazillion floors and an ever-bustling lobby. Check your vertigo at the front desk."
Zagat4.0
"With "sweeping views of Diamond Head and the glittering Pacific", this full-service resort provides a "pampered stay" in a "great location" in Honolulu with plenty of "dining and shopping" options."
The Telegraph7.0
"A corporate high-rise hotel in the heart of Waikiki, with a handful of great differentiating features." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Set in the center of Waikiki steps from the beach, the Sheraton offers two outdoor pools, fitness center, spa, and several dining options"
