Holiday Inn Express Waikiki by IHG

8/10 Good
"The hotel was in close proximity to a lot of food and restaurant options. Very close to the beach on the last day. We were without power around 8 AM due to the effects of hurricane Lala. It was our travel day so we were heading to the airport so we did not mind. I highly recommend this hotel. I would stay here again."

"This is just off the beach--only a block away and not far from the international center. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful! The rooms were beautifully appointed and pristine! It has a small restaurant with Karaoke for those who like to have fun! We came just after the tropical storm and they noted what visitors could safely do and what they could not do. Definitely a lovely place to stay."
