Gayot "If canopy beds, hardwood floors, turn-of-the-twentieth-century architecture and elegant French dining are right up your alley, then we highly recommend the eighteen-room Plantation Inn."
DK Eyewitness "Steps from the waterfront, this charming inn combines plantation style with modern convenience. Romantic island- style guest rooms have lānai (verandas); suites have kitchenettes."
Fodor's "Ten minutes from the beach, this tropical plantation-era inn is a fine value for those who want to be in the heart of the action." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This is where to stay if you want to be walking distance from Front Street, but still have a quiet place to sleep." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "With a plantation-style look, complete with porches on both stories of the building, this inn lives up to its name." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The 18-room adults-only bed and breakfast is located in the heart of historical Lahaina Town, less than a block from the ocean"

Frommer's "Tucked away behind Gerard’s (Maui’s award-winning French restaurant), this romantic inn was built in 1987 but looks as if it has been here since the days of Hawaiian royalty." Full review

Fodor's "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

"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
