Million-dollar views for middle-class budgets
Bordered by the Honolulu Zoo, the beachfront and the district's most coveted shopping and dining strip, the Park Shore enjoys one of the most exciting locations in Waikiki. The hotel is decorated in contemporary Island style with clean, bright and unfussy rooms, offering affordability without sacrificing comfort. Book a high south- or east-facing room for views that fulfill your Hawaii fantasy. No wonder it's a secret favorite of visitors and locals both.
Highlights
  • Relax on your private balcony for spectacular views of Diamond Head and the ocean from south and east rooms
  • Settle in with a 42-inch flat-screen TV, available in every oceanfront room
  • Reach a diversity of Waikiki destinations easily from the hotel's convenient location
Location

The best of Honolulu's most exciting district crossroads at the Park Shore Waikiki. The hotel is framed on three sides by wide-open beachfront, the Honolulu Zoo and Kalakaua Ave., Honolulu's premier shopping and dining strip. Just beyond the zoo is the 200-acre Kapiolani Park,  which overflows with weekend festivals, art shows, concerts and sporting events. At the east end of the park, the landmark Diamond Head frames the edge of Waikiki.

Rooms

Cozy, simple and bright, each room features a private lanai or ornamental balcony and tasteful Island décor. Some rooms have been recently refreshed. Choose a high floor facing south or east for spectacular views. Wi-Fi is available in-room (fees apply).

Dining

Visit the onsite Lulu's Waikiki for live entertainment, onscreen sports coverage and ocean views, plus food and beverage service from morning until well past midnight.

good location

Location is great, right across the street from the beach. The only major disappointment was there is no parking hotel and they wanted $20 PER day for valet service. We were able to find parking each night about 2 blocks away. The rooms were very basic but clean.

Excellent location.

I have stayed at this hotel several times in the past three years, and I have always been very pleased. I have referred this hotel to many of my friends, and they have also been very satisfied. Consistently clean and very customer service focused.

Great Location

All though my room was quite small it was comfortable. The staff were pleasent to talk to and very friendly. I liked the location because it was on the south end of Waikiki Beach and an easy walk to the park and all of the waterfront. A nice bar that overlooks the beach and good food also. Good music and a pleasent place just to hang out in the evening.

it might have been more then a leaky air contioner

the hotel was in a really good location, the only thing bad i would have to say about was that during our stay the the ceiling was leaking from the aircontionning which got worse, the staff only offerd extra towels, after another complaint and a friendlyer staff we got a new room.

Excellent location

My purpose of this trip was to go to the May Day concert at the Shell. The Park Shore was right across the street so we didn't have to deal with finding a parking spot. We checked into to the hotel and valet parking parked our car. Everything was in walking distance so we never neede to use our rental car while at the hotel. The room was spacious, we had a corner unit with a balcony. The bathroom was very big and the bedroom had a queen size bed, vanity table, 2 chairs and just enough hangers for the clothes we brought for an overnighter.

Great location, friendly staff

Shuttle from airport to the Hotel took 2 hours (recommend taxi-ing it for a few more $'s unless you are up to a Hotel scenic tour after a long flight). Hotel in a great location. Lanai Rooms are small but adequate for a short stay (1-4 days). Pool is a nice size, plenty of room and chairs available - lacks atmosphere tho, but then the beach is only across the road. Nice views from the pool and from the room of the mountains and the ocean. Overall, The Park Hotel was clean, friendly, excellent location and we will stay there again on our next wander of the Islands.

Lulu's next door makes the best breakfasts. Wonderful sunsets. Excellent Gold and Jewellery store 2 blocks from Hotel on main road. Zoo across the road is worth visiting. Take a leisurely morning walk to the left and go along the boardwalk and back thru the park. Beach across the road excellent for all ages.
