TripAdvisor Traveler Rating

Awesome hotel! Perfect location near everything. And also, right across he beach! The staff were super friendly and helpful. Clean, comfy rooms and great service all around. Highly recommend, our vacation ...was amazing here. Would definitely come back!

The hotel rooms are an unusual shape due to the circular construction of the hotel. The two large comfortable beds take up a lot of room but there was a comfortable chair and table with a coffee machine. T...he bed and pillows were very comfortable with an efficient A/C unit with plenty of adjustment. The bathroom/shower was clean. The shower had a great head unit, easy to adjust any obtain a comfortable temperature. Plenty of complimentary cleaning products Wer available. The fridge in the room was useful for storing drinks and some food. The large balcony doors and shutters were great to access the fantastic balcony which was in the ideal position for some afternoon/evening sunshine. The WiFi was great indoors but could be slightly sketchy on the balcony. For the compulsory amenity fee you also received a free newspaper each morning. Overnight parking is a massive issue in the area and I was very fortunate you get parking on site. Although expensive this took a lot of stress out of my stay. Having 'Egg N things' restaurant on site was very useful for breakfast with a 10% reduction. It did have big questions however so an early start helped get an early place in the queue. The two lifts to the rooms worked well with no hold ups or breakdowns. Check out was efficient and I was on my way in no time. Finally it must be said that the location of the hotel it absolutely superb. There are numerous shops adjoining the hotel with Waikiki beach directly across the road. I was also able to walk to Diamond Head State Park less than 3 km away.

This is an older yet nice and well located hotel near Waikiki Beach. The beach is right across the street from the hotel. The rooms and bathrooms are very clean and well maintained. Room amenities include ...toiletries, coffee maker, safe, refrigerator, TV, daily newspaper. Our partial beach view room was lovely with very nice views of the beach. The hotel is in a safe corridor of the street and one can only access the floors with the room's key card. Parking is limited and the lot was routinely full during our stay. A popular breakfast restaurant is conveniently located in lobby area. The hotel will provide beach towels to the guests. Hotel staff are very nice and responsive to the guests needs.

If you are wishing for the dazzling, upscale look of a Westin, Hilton, Sheraton...this hotel is not it. However…. PROS: It IS a safe, no- frills, clean, very conveniently located and reasonably priced lo...dging in Waikiki. The beach is right across the street from the hotel and a plethora of shops and eateries are within walking distance of the building. To enter the hotel you will drive up a slope to their guest registration spots (time limited parking). If you are walking out and about, you can walk up this slope, or climb the adjacent wide stairs to enter the open lobby. The lobby has neat photos of what the hotel looked like back when it was built, at a time when it wasn’t dwarfed by all the other buildings that surround it in present day. Two elevators are in this lobby and to access your floor you must use your key card. The rooms are not huge but adequately sized for two persons. Our room was nicely decorated in soothing colors of blues and greens.The bathroom was smallish with a curtained step-in shower stall that is comparable in size to a cruise ship stall. The shower enclosure has shower gel, shampoo and conditioner dispensers. The bathroom counter-top is not ample, but enough for one's basic toiletries. A cute beach pail and shovel are placed on it with extra toilet paper rolls. Plenty of towels are provided. The bathroom commode is somewhat low (height-wise), which might be an issue for those with impaired knees. The bedroom's dresser/TV stand and side table have ample drawers and the closet is a good size with plenty of shelves and storage space. Near the closet is a built in desk area with a “Keurig-type" coffee maker and assorted coffee and tea pods, cream, sweeteners, cups. This area also has a small refrigerator. Two plastic water bottles are supplied and can be filled in a filtered-water dispenser on the lobby. The lobby also has an adjacent waiting area containing chairs, small microwave and DVD rental unit. The room supplies are replenished daily, and the hotel also provides beach towels. The room had plenty of electrical outlets and the air-conditioning was great. Our partial ocean-view room was quiet. It gave us a perfect view of Waikiki beach and was delightfully breezy. There is no swimming pool on hotel grounds. Conveniently located in the lobby of this Aston hotel is a breakfast eatery, Eggs N' Things, which consistently had a big crowd of customers waiting outside in the lobby for a table inside the eatery. Aston Waikiki Circle guests also get a discount at this eatery. On the side of the registration parking spot, one will find a faucet and hose to rinse out the sand from the beach. There are also racks with assorted beach paraphernalia (masks, snorkels, etc) which apparently are for the use of the hotel guests, though we didn’t use these.The hotel staff is very pleasant and friendly. Housekeeping was great. Our rooms were very clean. The beds though comfortable, did have some saggy areas, we would have preferred firmer mattresses. The TV had plenty of channels. CONS: parking area underground has very limited parking and the lot is usually full. Word of advice: don't rent a car larger than a mid- size vehicle. If their lot is full, you will be directed to park in other buildings' facilities, some a walking distance away. You will reach your 10,000 daily steps quota. All parking whether at this hotel or elsewhere has a daily fee. Overall, this reviewer recommends the Aston Waikiki Circle.

Cleaning lady was fantastic!!! Location made up for other infractions. We were in the heart of Waikiki and the shopping district and that was a major plus. Parking is so very limited and because of that, ...I don't think I would stay at this location again unless parking was reserved prior.
