Ilikai Hotel & Suites

Staff was good, lobby very nice, Can't beat the location! walk off the ramp from the deck and you are at the beginning of Waikiki Beach! Also like the street view of Alo Moana Blvd.

Our wonderful visit to Hawaii centered on the Ilikai hotel. Technically, the Ilikai isn't actually on Waikiki; it's on the waterfront of the small boat harbor. [That's a "good thing" because you have all the amenities of the other hotels but you have more privacy.] The hotel dates back to 1963. That might seem to be a fault, but the hotel went through a massive restoration just two years ago. The result is a modern hotel with 60s-era sized rooms - perhaps 3 times the size of the newest hotels - providing living space without feeling like you're in a Motel 6. Try it. You'll LOVE it!

We had a wonderful time. We enjoyed sitting on the patio and viewing the sunset. My husband enjoyed walking on the beachwalk without having to walk blocks to get to it. The bus stop being just steps away from the hotel was a wonderful thing. We enjoyed the whole experience.

Overall I like the hotel and especially the location because the beach is just across the street ... the room is comfortable and really clean however the need to start to renew the rooms and especially the bathroom ... For those who is planning to rent a car they can park their car just behind the hotel and it is way cheaper the hotel parking ...

I really like this hotel great location, very clean and great room comfort you have everything microwave coffee maker and refrigerator.

Very large room, very clean and well decorated with nice, comfortable furniture. The furnished kitchenette and comfortable couch and chair made staying in the room quite enjoyable. I wish I had had more time to stay here. Our view of the beach and of the hotels and lights of the night were awesome. While walking in the area, it is EASY to spot the aqua panels on the hotel in order to find your way back. :)

We shared a great experience at the Ilikai. Our first trip to Hawaii was rewarding and the location of the hotel made it perfect. We rented a car but was able to walk to many of our destinations. An older hotel which made it incredibly special. I would stay at the Ilikai again!! Did I mention that it was quiet.

This is my third trip to the Ilikai in the last year. My daughter lives only a few blocks away which is why i chose this spot. It is on the peaceful end of Waikiki but within walking distance of great shopping and dining. The cafe downstairs is wonderful. The wait staff is so friendly and always greeted us with warm smile. We love jazz night (Tues) at Sarento's Top of the I. Food is great and worth the price.

I enjoyed staying here. It is close to Ala Moana Park and walking distance to Waikiki. The only thing I didn't like about the room was that the TV was too far from the bed.

In and out of Honolulu on business. Location is right at the beginning of Waikiki; less tourist, less crowd. Rooms were large, well appointed. Nothing fancy but very adequate. No pay-for-view movies but had a microwave, frig, coffee maker. Front desk was very friendly, helpful. The coffee shop/grill downstairs was totally unimpressive. Slow, slow service and the food mediocre. Had a staff member who had an excuse for everything. She wasn't my server, but I asked for my check; her answer was "I'm not your server." Next morning she was my server; waited 35 minutes for a simple omelet; inquired about it and she was apologetic that it was slow, but had to add "it's not my fault." A total turnoff. Other than that over all experience was "just OK."
