"Halekulani's little-sister property, this 297-room tower isn't beachfront... and has no grounds to speak of. What it does have is terrific bang for your buck."
Fodor's
"The guest rooms in this high-rise complex have modern minimalist furnishings but give a nod to the tropics by keeping plantation-style shutters that open out to the lanai." Full review

"This well-priced boutique hotel appeals to foodies and families." Full review
Lonely Planet
"From the moment you enter the elegant lobby, the Parc exudes an urban (and urbane) vibe." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Although it’s not on the beach, it is the sister of the luxurious Halekulani across the street. The level of service is the same at a much lower price."
Star Service
"Located across the street from its stellar sibling Halekulani and a two-minute walk from the beach, this is a trendier pocket-size version of its neighbor." Full review
Gayot
"Tucked in back of the gigantic Sheraton Waikiki hotel, this property was recently gutted and redone with new elegant trimmings with a chic and modern theme."
Frommer's
"This hotel is a great Waikiki secret, designed for the 20s-to-30s crowds." Full review
Travel + Leisure

Fodor's
"Renovated in 2012, this star of Outrigger Hotels & Resorts sits on one of the finest strands of Waikiki Beach." Full review

Mid-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
