Of all the monstrosities that loom over Waikiki, Equus is a diamond in the rough. Tucked away off the beaten path enough to not get the noise of the strip but still very close to the excitement, this hotel was wonderful for the town getaway my husband and I were looking for. Even though it was a bit hard to... more

Our sixth stay at the Equus so it has become home from home. We have tried other hotels but keep coming back to the familiar excellent service we receive from Rene and all of the team at the Equus ( a big thank you to Puka. Lygaya and Sergia). The combination of small boutique hawaiian hospitality, excellent service It is... more

My wide and I stayed at the Equus for 6 nights. The Equus offered us very good value and was one of the lower priced hotels near Waikiki. I asked for a quiet room and instead of a room on the street that we had paid for, we were given an upgrade to a very nice room in the rear... more

The rooms, by and large, are nice, but VERY NOISY! The property is perpendicular to Ala Moana Blvd with open corridors on one side for room access. This lets noise in both through the window and door of the room. The lobby and the bottom of the elevator are more than a full floor above street level which is a... more

We stayed at the hotel for 12 nights, the rooms are very nice nothing fancy, but very comfortable. The beds are amazing; the cleaning staff was very nice and did a nice job. There is a small fridge in the room which is nice as well, there are no bathtubs, but other then that it was a nice room. The... more

I'm still glowing after my trip to Hawaii and stay at the Equus Hotel. The hotel was affordable and really nice. It's off Waikiki enough to avoid the bad traffic, but close enough to walk and enjoy all it has to offer. The best part was waking up every morning of my stay, running to Ala Moana Beach Park for... more

What a wonderful experience at The Equus. The staff were so friendly and helpful, the room was clean and the cleaning service was very good. The hotel was reasonably priced. We were provided with a wonderful Continental breakfast each morning of coffee, juice, fresh fruit and the most wonderful pastry! I can't really think of any negatives. more

I have stayed at The Equus a number of times mostly when I have been transiting through Hawaii, but stayed there once during a vacation with my wife. As other reviewers have noted, its got a great location, it may be hard to find at first, but its a very comfortable place to stay, not a loud and flashy place.... more

Our 3 night stay at the Equus exceeded our expectations. The room was elegantly appointed with a warm decor. The bed was very comfortable. Room was immaculate with excellent high speed wireless connection. The large flat screen TV was great. The best part was the personable, efficient service at the front desk. The location on the west side of Waikiki... more

We enjoyed our stay at this family owned inn, and it was so convenient to be so near the Ala Moana Center, and the finer restaurants in Honolulu...the business area we were frequenting in the Ward Center area, located a 5 minute bus ride from the hotel. These rooms are beautiful and comfortable, flat screen TV and internet, free local... more
