Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"Convenient location, great view. Food was ok. Reserved a king room, when I checked in, they said they’re all gone, all they had was 2 doubles. Then maintenance came to our room, said they had a bad outlet, asked to close the door to our lanai (we wanted the fresh air) he tapped all the outlets with his finger, said they’re “ok.” I’ve been an electrician for 26 years, never seen that before."

Park Shore Waikiki

10/10 Excellent

"From check-in to check-out, the Park Shore Waikiki exceeded my expectations. The lobby is lovely with rocking chairs to wait for your Lyft or shuttle. Yummy food is available at restaurants all around. And the view! Diamond Head and the beach. Sunset everyday from my lanai. I hope to come back some day."
