HILTON HAWAIIAN VILLAGE

Pros: nice pool, lots of dining and shopping options, best beach in Waikiki
Cons: $$$$$$$

My husband and I used to be satisfied with smaller, more intimate hotels. However, as our kids have gotten older we have developed a preference for larger resorts that keep the kids busy and afford us more opportunity to relax. Unfortunately, when ...

Pros: Restaurants, complementary cultural entertainment, many activities, excellent beach, pools, shopping, kid’s programs
Cons: Expensive, crowded, some restaurant reservations are difficult to obtain, charges for in-room coffee

My husband and I were attending a 4-day professional conference in Honolulu around the July 4th 2002 holiday period. Since most of the convention- related leisure activities would occur at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Beach Resort & Spa, we...

Pros: Largest stretch of beach, moderately priced
Cons: Rooms vary in quality greatly, food options are average

We spent 2 nights at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in May of 2004. This is not the busy season in Hawaii, and my experience may not best describe the average vacation. First a few points to make. This is Hawaii. It is expensive, really expensive. All ...

Pros: lush setting
Beach front Waikiki
Lots to do
Cons: Can be pricey - best to avoid poolside restaurants

My title gives away my feelings about this place doesn't it?My family has 2 small children under 5.  We wanted a place that was close to the beach and had plenty to do.  This was it.  The village part means that there are 22 acres ...

Pros: Centrally located in Waikiki. Nice views from the upper floors. Beach fireworks every friday night.
Cons: A mile from the real beach action and nice shops. Kamaina-Rate is of marginal value.

The Kamaina rate (Hawai`ian Resident Rate) rooms are of lesser quality. I was offered a room with no lanai (balcony), with only two small 2x3 foot windows located 3 feet off the ground, no curtains on the windows, with wood shutters. I asked for a...

Pros: Beautiful location
Cons: Concierge lack of knowledge, Ill-fitting sheets, hand prints on glass, lost luggage, broken room items.

I was unfortunate to have stayed in the Hilton Hawaiian Village in Waikiki in mid-July. I must say I have never been so disappointed in a hotel in my whole life. I had always thought that Hilton set the industry standard and thought I would be staying at...

Pros: Nice rooms, resort amenities, location
Cons: Price, never felt comfortable, all room materials written in Japanese

I've only stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian Village once while on my honeymoon. My husband and I decided to take a day or two on Oahu before spending the rest of our vacation on Kauai. We were originally booked to stay at the Hyatt but because of some ...

Pros: Grounds, Service, relaxed family-friendly feel
Cons: overpriced restaurants/food

We needed a convenient Waikiki hotel for a few days before leaving for a one-week cruise of the islands, and selected the HHV from several good choices in the Fodor's guide. We expected it to be very nice, but instead we were WOWED! The grounds/setting...

Pros: Absolutely gorgeous!!
Cons: Expensive food!

The Hilton Hawaiian Village is like a fairy tale. First of all, the property is gorgeous! There are several waterfalls throughout the property, swans all over, flamingos, birds, huge fish in ponds, turtles, and the most surprising of all...penguins in...

Pros: a lot to do, nice landscaping
Cons: inconsistent rooms and service

I stayed at Hilton Hawaiian Village for the first two days of my Hawaiian vacation. My plans were to find a nice hotel in Waikiki and survey the "must see" tourist stuff before moving on to other islands. I placed a bid on Priceline.com for a four-star...

Pros: For families and couples, a true destination resort
Cons: Insanely expensive, designed to such money from you

Reservations I am a Hilton Diamond HHonors member. I've stayed in the Ali'i Tower at the Hilton Hawaiian Village many times over the past ten years, almost always on business trips to Honolulu. Making my reservation using the Hilton Family website was ...

Pros: Location and beach. You can walk to everything in Waikiki and the beach is wonderful.
Cons: Misc. Charges For instance: hot tea in your room, use of the gym, etc.

Wonderful location with friendly and attentive staff, this is a great hotel. They do a lovely job keeping everything clean and beautiful. That being said, the restaurants in the village are overly expensive and the hotel charges you for every ...

Pros: Everything is within walking distant. You have the Hawaiian experience right at your door step
Cons: It is very crowded, very loud and filled to capacity with other tourists

The Hilton Hawaiian Village is great for Families! You can always find something going on and the atmosphere is casual and carefree. The rooms are a little below the Hilton name of expectation but, it is a family style property so, if you just plan for ...

Pros: Great location, friendly staff
Cons: too many people, old tired rooms

I stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in Mid June 2003 after a week at the Waikoloa Hilton. The ...

Pros: Absolutely amazing, Location, Pools, Fireworks, restaurants, MAI TAI'S!!
Cons: SO spread out, long walk to tour bus, ATM machine WAY far from lobby.

I would recommend Hawaiian Hilton Village to everyone.
All aspects of this Hawaiian vacation were terrific due to our wonderful hotel.
Our check in was a breeze, (Literally - the lobby is outside) Immediately you are in awe of this paradise...
