Place was good, but desperately needs work on. Not all rooms look like the pictures and they need a deep and thorough clean. Staff were great and very friendly.

Very friendly owner and staff. Very personal. The hotel has a lot of charm even though it is older. It also has newly renovated rooms. You feel like you are right in the jungle, even though it is only a 5-minute walk to the city center. If you like history, this hotel is perfect.

Very old hotel, basic rooms, ours had some good fans, a fridge, and was clean, could have used a couple more pillows, and there was no hot water. Walking distance from old Hilo.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I got the superior suite because I wanted a balcony, king bed and my own bathroom. I can say it was not disappointing. The time I was in the room, it was peaceful and quiet. It may not be a fancy hotel but for me I do like small, quiet, peaceful, unbothered vibes. Also, I had a late check in...on a tsunami threat day, so office was closed but I didn't check my messages till later because of all the chaos, Makana, the manager, assured me that they left my key for me in the lock box. Yay! I sure did love my stay.

I love the old Hawaiian look that the Wild Ginger Hotel provides. There were no fancy pictures or decorations but what they did have, gave me a sense of old Hawaii. I enjoyed every bit of staying there and I plan on staying there again.

It is very cute and old fashioned, with alot of Hawaiiana flavor but missing some important upgrades. Hot water is a problem, there's no tv and no air conditioning, although the fans were adequate. Staff is lovely and personable.

The worst Hotel I’ve ever been to. The sheets where dirty, dirty socks laying on the floor, no a/c, the door seem like with one push it will open up, no hot water in the room and no toilet paper. If you are use to living out side this is the economical hotel for you. I literally checked in and checked back out after 10 minutes.
