Featuring 2 exotic pools and beautiful views of the ocean, The Modern Honolulu stands next to the sands of Waikiki Beach.

We went to the Modern as part of a timeshare promo. The room was adequate and it was a good location for the price. The pool was small and chill, which we liked.

It’s very close to the Waikiki beach and having all the beach towels and beach accessories available is a bonus .

Located across from the Ala Wai Canal, this boutique hotel offers free WiFi. The Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center is less than 10 minutes' walk away.

Nice people and vibes. Tired facilities, old one pane windows means little noise insulation.

Experience a different side of Waikiki, tucked away under Diamond Head. The luxurious Lotus Honolulu offers walking paths to two nearby beaches and amazing views of Diamond Head.

Just a 10-minute walk from Fort Derussy Beach Park, this modern Honolulu hotel features an outdoor pool and a sauna. Its suites are equipped with a flat-screen TV and free Wi-Fi.

It was on a horrible location so load I couldn't sleep. By the time I returned home I was completely wiped out.

    Loved the central location - it's literally across the road from the International Marketplace shopping mall. There's valet parking and valet staff are super helpful and proactive. The hotel is new - they opened in June 2024 so the facilities are great and new. Bathroom is of a modern design. The beds are super comfy - we had one of our best sleeps here. Staff are friendly and they provide free refillable water bottles plus the ambience and interior design is quite fresh and modern.

    100% perfect location. Right across Waikiki beach. Perfekt view from the balcony, too. And Congratulations to the interior designer, we loved the colors and underwater motives. The free reusable waterbottle is a nice idea and a lovely souvenir. Room and bathroom are small, but hey, who spends time in the room in Waikiki? Highly recommend for a easy going beach vacation.

    Located right in the heart of Waikiki, this hotel is a more affordable option compared with hotels closer to the beach, and is better in just about every other respect: cool vibe, hip furnishings, young friendly staff, excellent restaurant and bar, a good cafe next door serving decent flat whites, nice design (retro motel feel around a central swimming pool but with sweet music, and even market stalls one evening). Stay back from the over-commercialised beach strip and you get a better deal and more atmosphere.

    Great renovation of an obviously daggy old hotel. Interior designers to be credited. Majority of staff were pleasant. Clean and neat. Check in seemed to be unorganised and don’t expect to get in early! Location is a short stroll from all the fun. Everything is a walk or cheap Uber away.

    The hotel was very nicely put together. The interior design was fantastic with lots of details that really made it feel like a 5 star experience. The pool, loungers and bar were a great outdoor space with the bar seat swings bringing a lot of joy to many!
