"Staff was very attentive and polite. The resort sits right in the middle of Waikiki. Only down side was meals were less than filling. For the cost I feel that the food and portion size were small. Breakfast was very unsatisfying however the restaurant called Eggs & Things is only two doors down. Overall stay was 4.5 star"

Park Shore Waikiki

Park Shore Waikiki

8/10 Good
"My husband and I came with my brother in law and his GF. We came to Honolulu to celebrate my 50th birthday which was the day after we arrived. Because it was a birthday trip, when I booked I paid extra for an ocean view room, with a balcony, as I really enjoy sitting and enjoying my morning coffee on the balconies. The other couple just booked a standard room. When we arrived to the hotel, I checked in first and got my room on the 8th floor. Then my brother in law check in, the front desk person said oh you must be the other Champagne group (last names) and because he booked a standard room he got upgraded to a suite on the 15th floor. So not only did he pay less than we did. He had a bigger room with fantastic views of both the Diamond head and the ocean. They sure know how to make a birthday girl feel special. If you want an upgrade just book a basic room. Other than that, location is fantastic. Bathroom tub didn’t drain fast enough so we stood in a pool of water every time we showered. Shower pressure is so so. Pool area was nice. Never really busy. Lots of great food options and things to do around. Right across the street from the zoo."
