Top Waikiki Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Waikiki by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay did not work out so we had to find a last minute lodging. We relied & trusted reviews & chose Holiday Inn Express at Waikiki which we were very grateful of. PROS: 1. The lady in charge of the 15th floor did not miss cleaning our room daily. We did not need to ask. She even asked if we needed anything else. She was very nice, always present & approachable. 2. Buffet breakfast is exceptional. We were amazed with lots of people staying in this hotel & staff catered to everyone’s needs. They picked up plates & trays & cleaned tables promptly to be available for the next guests. 3. Since we were there already in Honolulu with our luggages, we were accommodated for early check in & were in our room by 12 noon. 4. Since our flight was scheduled late evening, we were allowed late check out at 1pm. They held our luggages for free while we tried to continue to visit other spots. We ended up staying in their comfortable lobby the remainder of the time until it was time to head to the airport. Lady at the front desk even lent us a key to the bathroom during our wait. CONS: 1. There were only two elevators serving our floor. One was down. There were three other elevators but serving different floors. There was a wait & elevator is mostly packed especially after breakfast. But it was okay for us. They have a lot of guests. 2. Front desk is always busy and has a long line. If assistance is needed, it would be better to be there in person and fall in line. They will gladly help."
