Great Location
huia (New York City, New York) on Mar 28, 2025
We had a very nice stay at this hotel by Waikiki Beach. Its location was very convenient, a quick walk to Waikiki Beach and close to numerous restaurants and stores. Our room in the recently renovated Ai...nahau Tower was well-furnished though modestly sized. Lighting was bright, and we had a nice balcony too. All the staff we encountered were very friendly. I read a lot of complaints about slow elevators. The Ainahau Tower has 4 elevators, but one of them was closed for renovations. During our stay, there was really only one occurrence where the elevators were jammed packed, and we had to wait 10 minutes before getting to the lobby. The rest of the time, we had no significant issues with the elevators. Upon checking in, the hotel also provided instructions on using the service elevators in case of delays, though we never felt compelled to have to use those. Parking is at the back of the hotel. Oddly, I wasn’t able to find an elevator for the lower levels of the parking lot and instead only found a staircase that led to the lobby. However, the elevators for the Ainahau Tower had access to the upper floors of the parking lot. There is a $45/day fee. Entering/exiting the lot required your key card (you can grab a ticket the first time you enter before checking in), though by the second day it seemed the gate recognized our license plate and opened the gates automatically. The parking lot was big, busy, but was never full during our stay. At check-in, we were given instructions to park at the adjacent International Market Place lot or the other Sheraton hotel in case the lot was full. With so many restaurants nearby, we ended up eating all our meals nearby and did not try any of the hotel’s restaurants. The hotel has a $33/day resort fee that includes numerous activities and amenities. We unfortunately did not get to take advantage of any of these as we were spending time throughout the island. The nearby area was bustling and full of energy, especially at night. Unsurprisingly, there were numerous ABC stores a short walk away and the adjacent International Market Place had many restaurants and a convenient Target store too.
Sub par rooms very tiny for more than one person

Stay here frequently for work purposes - the rooms are fairly small in the main tower wing - so be prepared if there are two of you especially the rooms facing the back of the property or the construction ...site:.. close to shopping and markets of Honolulu - staff is very nice and helpful but pretty much motel quality rooms compared to other Sheratons
