Hotel Overview
Great downtown Hotel
This hotel was good for the value. The food at the on-site restaurant I felt was way over priced...

A local hotel in true Honolulu near shopping and the beach
Totally revamped and refreshingly unpretentious, the two-tower Ala Moana Hotel is an island institution. Ala Moana Hotel is a favorite of Hawaii's neighbor island visitors who love the feel of being just outside of Waikiki. Enjoy front-door shopping, great rates and a short walk to an enormous beach. Ala Moana is one block from the Hawaii Convention Center and attracts groups from the mainland. The hotel's 36 floors and more than 1,000 rooms hardly keep Ala Moana a secret, but a surprising find amidst the pack.
Highlights
- Spend the day at Hawaii's largest shopping center with 300 shops and restaurants located next to the hotel
- Rumours, one of Honolulu's oldest nightclubs catering to all ages is located onsite
- Enjoy a location free from the chaos of Waikiki, yet walking distance to attractions
Location
Straddling Waikiki and the central shopping district of Honolulu, the Ala Moana Hotel offers the best of both worlds. Hawaii's largest shopping center located next door offers nearly 300 shops and restaurants and connects visitors to additional shopping centers within a mile stretch. The Hawaii Convention Center is a block away, as well as the enormous Ala Moana Beach Park--two miles of white-sand beach, jogging trails and tennis courts.
Rooms
A recent multi-million dollar upgrade to the hotel makes rooms feel fresh and modern. Enjoy stellar Waikiki and ocean views, complimentary wireless Internet, refrigerator, in-room safe, air-conditioning and more. Some rooms also feature a private balcony.
Dining
For casual family dining at the hotel, try the Plantation Café, which serves a daily buffet breakfast. Next door at Ala Moana Center, choose from more than 75 eateries ranging from Starbucks and sandwich shops to fine dining. Special destinations include Panya Bistro, Mariposa, Marketplace Café, Pineapple Room and Longhi's.

Great location, great for business travel
Ala Moana Hotel, HONOLULU, HI was very nice. The lobby is unreal (very classy). The room was on the small side but, after speaking to the locals I found that this is the norm based on the premium placed on space. After a few hours the room really actually felt bigger based on the efficent layout of the space. The view was nice from our 9th floor room (view of Ala Moana Park and habor). The Ala Moana Shopping Center (world class mall) is connected directly to the hotel via a ramp. This was my wife's favorite feature since I was there on business she had to entertain herself. She said that she loved this mall, great shops, bookstore, resturants. Some shops were so high end that she said that she only looked through the window. Waikki Beach is a short trolley ride a way (really glad was didn't choose a hotel there; too many people, traffic, and no real parking). The Ala Moana Hotel had recently completed a very dealed and nicely done overhaul. Definitely will stay at the Ala Moana Hotel on the return visit to Honolulu.

1. Ala Moana Shopping Center: great shops, bookstore, and resturants. 2. Take the trolley to Waikki Beach located next door at the Ala Moana Shopping Center. $2 or free if you walk a little further down the mall (see the Free Trolley). Go between 2-3pm before the crowds.

Great Location
The Ala Moana Hotel was very clean comfortable and had a great location. I was in Hawaii for a convnetion and the short walk to the convention center. On my down time, I was able to walk over to the shopping mall as well for walking and eating and some shopping, just a short walk to the beach as well. There was a microwave and fridge in the room. Very nice.

Great place to stay.
The Ala Moana Hotel is a very straight forward, all business, hotel. The place is clean, efficient, and well located. I didn't bring a family, but remembering back to those days this hotel would be classed as family friendly by me. Located next to the Ala Moana Center gives you access to absolutely all kinds of shopping and dining opportunities. I would highly recommend this hotel and do intend to return.

Longhi's restaurant is located in the Ala Moana Center. A wonderful dining experience. It's upscale, but the food is well worth the money and the short walk to get there.

Good hotel for business travel
Good staff at check-in, good maid service, parking has gotten a bit pricey (now $20/night). Need some regular restaurant services for travelers in the evening. Breakfast good at Plantation Cafe, good wait staff.

One of the Best Hotels in Waikiki
The rooms are very clean & are like new featuring decor and furnishings are modern. The 2nd floor has a bridge that is a 2 minute walk to Macy's and the mall, you don't even have to go to the street level. I stayed on the 28th floor for 1 week, never did I have to wait long for the elevator. The fitness center had state of the art machines. There is a club called Rumours on the ground floor that is hip and popular to locals. I thought parking may be tough but the attendants will help you find a spot if you don't get one the first time you go around. The only drawback I could think of is that it is a far walk to Waikiki's busy section, you'll have to take a bus ride but for me that means it's away from the crowd and noise. I love this hotel & I would definitely stay here again!
