Everything was fantastic from the excellent customer service we received from staff to the great view from our rooms balcony of the whales breaching in the Bay. Our room afforded us plenty of room, the beds were very comfortable, and housekeeping staff daily demonstrated their... More

The hotel was in a great position. We were on the 15th floor, so the noise below didn't bother us. Loved the free wi-fi. The front desk staff were great. Everyone very friendly. More

In December 2011/January 2012 I stayed for a second time at "The Wave." Once again it was a great experience. The location, facilities, price and general atmosphere made my stay so enjoyable. I love Welcome Wednesday!!" The staff are friendly and helpful. In particular, I would like to acknowledge the professionalism and kindness of George who goes out of his... More

My girlfriends and I stayed here for 2 weeks (27th Jan to 10th Feb) and enjoyed our stay immensely. Fantastic location for shops, restaurants and bars (literally right next door). Noise was minor on the carpark side (stayed on level 5)- we didn't have trouble sleeping especially when you compare it to Asia. It was literally less than 3min walk... More

Stayed here last december with my family, we booked 5 rooms. Location is great, rooms were recently refurbished i heard, therefore i can say that interior is newer and more modern than most waikiki hotels of the same standard. We stayed there pre-cruise from Dec 22-24, then post-cruise from Dec 31-Jan 2. Our pre-cruise stay was smooth except on the... More

Stayed here Feb 7-12. The hotel is located right in the middle of EVERYTHING in Waikiki. The staff are SUPER FRIENDLY and helpful. We were expecting it to be really noisy based on the reviews we read, but it was not a problem at all! We're used to city noise, so we didn't even have to use the earplugs provided.... More

Aloha, As you found out, we are in the MIDDLE of everything in Waikiki. Our staff are the absolute BEST, we can’t be great all the time, but even on those challenging days, pretty good goes a long way also. We are constantly working with our Team Members to do everything in the ‘spirit of excellence’ and I think it’s... More

If you are looking for a clean, friendly place to stay near the International Center, great restaurants, evening street performers and the beach, this will do fine. It does have it's quirks. We decided on it because A) There was a limited choice of affordable hotel rooms available because of Pro Bowl. B) We read these reviews on tripadvisor. Most... More

Stayed at this hotel from Feb 4-Feb 11. Positives first. The location is one of the best. It's smack in the center of Waikiki. There's a bus stop right in front of the hotel which is very convenient. It's right beside the International Market. There are two Starbucks nearby. There's also a udon place across the street which served freshly... More

Aloha and mahalo for your review, I agree with you, our location is very popular with so many of our guests. The udon restaurant across the street offers a reasonably priced meal with a healthy portion. Starbucks on both sides of the property help our guests maintain their caffeine levels in their bodies. The arrival for our guests is still... More
