My husband grew up in Honolulu, so when we were choosing a hotel for our Christmas holiday, we knew we wanted to be on the beach, but not in the centre of Waikiki. The New Otani Kaimana Beach is perfectly situated on a quiet street at the 'end' of Waikiki surrounded by a perfect, quiet beach and the beautiful Kapiolani... more

When I booked my room for my first trip to Honolulu I was looking for a place where I could relax as well as be close to waikiki. I hit the cover off the ball on this one. I was put in the annex, number 309, which is the closest to the beach on the top floor. The porch(lanai) opens... more

My lady and I just spent 5 days at this hotel. We generally like places with a bit more local flavor.... not the typical fancy resort type place. The New Otani was excellent. It is small and right on the beach, the rooms can be quite small, so spring for the "Deluxe" rooms that are larger as it is definitely... more

We found this hotel through Tripadvisor and were very happy there. We were only in Oahu for four nights and wanted something away from the center, but not too far. This was perfect. Quick, beautiful walk to the center of Waikiki and a few buses pass near the hotel on the way to Hanauma and the center of Honolulu. As... more

We stayed here for a wedding. The hotel was clean and had a great location but the room was older and run down. The best rooms are on the suites on the top floors. get one of those if you can. The food in the hotel is OK, but you can do better out in town. The beach however is... more

We stayed here on the way home to Australia after 3 weeks in the US so wanted to stay somwhere quiet where we could relax before flying home. One of the older hotels but surrounded by beach on one side and the park on the other, only a short 10 minute walk to waikiki with all the ABC shops and... more

Nice room #312 - we were on 3rd floor, with a view of the Waikiki high rises and beach only slightly obscured by palm trees. Didn't try the restaurants - there's a Japanese and a Hawaiian - appeared a little expensive. OK value - I think we were paying about $230 / night which I thought was good for Waikiki,... more

This is a very good bargain for hotels in Honolulu. It is right on the beach -- amazing view from ocean front rooms! It is very convenient to Waikiki, but not right in the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. The hotel is located in the midst of an attractive city park right next to Diamond Head, and is about a... more

This hotel is highly recommended for value and service and convenience. My husband sometimes uses a wheelchair and the hotel supplied this free of charge for one week! Being right on the beach, we ate regularly at the restaurant there and the food was superb. Our view from our room over the sea and Honolulu was magnificent and breath taking.... more
