Spa hotels in Honolulu

"The view of Diamond Head and the ocean was amazing! Drinking alcohol while watching the view from the lanai was a blissful time. The room was spacious and clean. There was a large refrigerator with kitchen detergent, sponges, and kitchen paper. On the L floor, there was a convenience store, cafe, poke shop, and ice cream shop, which was very convenient. We received an ice cream voucher for our stay, which we enjoyed every day. The only drawback was that the water pressure in the shower was weak and the water was lukewarm. It was a happy space that we would definitely like to stay in again."

"The hotel's location is absolutely unbeatable. Waikiki Beach is just across the street, making it super convenient for beachgoers and families with kids. Thanks to its prime spot, the balcony offers fantastic views, and it's incredibly relaxing to just lie there and enjoy the morning. The lobby provides towels for guests to use at the beach, which can be conveniently returned to a designated bin on the same day – another handy feature. Now for some downsides. We booked two rooms, and the balconies felt a bit unstable, noticeably swaying when a few people stood on them. The railings also seemed inadequate and quite exposed, which felt a bit unsafe. We stayed for six nights, and it felt like daily tipping for housekeeping was expected. Without a tip, the service wasn't thorough, often missing things like fresh towels or replenished amenities. Furthermore, there was no complimentary bottled water provided daily, which we found unusual. Guests also need to bring their own toiletries, as the hotel does not supply them. The hotel has a paid laundry room; washing fees were comparable to New York, but drying was quite expensive. On top of that, there were unreasonable mandatory fees (e.g., resort fees) of around $60 per day, with very few actual amenities included for that price. Next time I visit, I definitely wouldn't choose this hotel again. I'd opt for hotels like the Hilton, just a block or two away from the main road. The walking distance isn't significantly different, but the price difference is substantial."
