I recently stayed at the Princess for a business trip, I've stayed here several times. The hotel is a bit tired even though part of it has been (fairly) recently renovated/updated. My room was clean, only two of the four elevators were operating so there were long waits but the location is hard to beat, right next to restaurants, shopping and just across the street from the beach. Parking is $49/night which seems a bit high but all of the downtown hotels charge a premium for parking. If you're going for a holiday or business trip this is a good spot. They have a bar and restaurant on-site which is convenient and there is a new (to me) area to play pool, ping pong and foosball so it's good for kids or adults.

Me and my husband stayed here for 1 week the overall experience was nice we had no issues with any service and overall it was in a great area maybe less than 5 min walk to beach. Food all around and a great room. The only thing is that we had to pay 45$ for parking daily and no elevators for parking so we had to use the stairs. Overall we would stay again

We will stay here again, they are remodeling, nothing that will interfere or interrupt you. Bathroom was dated, but I’m not living here, it’s a nice place to sleep, shower and head out to explore. Parking and their fees total about ~$80 USD per day so plan that. Overall I base my review on one of two things would I stay here or not again. Yes, I would, 2 adults and Toddler. Eat at Dukes Breakfast and Dinner you won’t regret it! Make reservations for OUTSIDE! It’s a 3 minute walk across the street.

Best hotel location to stay. Sheraton is so close to everything! The Waikiki beach is less than 5 mins away by foot. Super walkable to food and shopping in Waikiki! The hotel itself was a bit outdated but was clean. I've read many reviews about hotels with bedbugs around the area and it's safe to say that I didn't encounter one during my stay. I wasn't expecting to have housekeeping service, so it was a nice surpise to come back to a fully stocked room plus free water bottles. Elevators can be a bit slow at times. I didn't use any of their amenities so I can't say anything about it. Besedies the pool, which was a bit too cold. It is december and a bit windy o im guessing during summer is best. Lots of pool chairs and good towels. I don't know why this place doesn't have more stars!!! I loved it here. Friendly staff. Location was perfect. Not to mention the views!!!! I'm coming back here next time for sure!!
