Located in the heart of Waikiki, 2 minutes' walk to Waikiki Beach, Halepuna Waikiki is a luxury boutique hotel surrounded by shopping and dining. The property was designed by internationally acclaimed interior design firm, Champalimaud and features works of several Hawaiian artists in partnership with The Honolulu Museum of Art public art program. This was honestly, one of the only times where I've stayed at a hotel and the room looked EXACTLY as it's shown in the photos-- Every other time you can tell the photos have been strategically taken, but not here! The location is great, the room was exceptional; the view was stunning, it's wonderfully quiet, the pool is beautiful and all the staff were incredibly helpful.

Aston Waikiki Circle Hotel, a uniquely-shaped hotel and a landmark along Waikiki’s Kalakaua Avenue, is across from Waikiki Beach. It features rooms with a balcony and a view of the ocean or the city. WiFi is available throughout the property. Wonderful location! Right across the road from the beach. Communication from the hotel regarding arrival and additional information was perfect. We had everything we needed and the hotel was close to restaurants, shops and especially the beach. We could walk everywhere and for other travel we used a tourbus. We had an amazing stay and loved our view of the beach. This hotel was perfect for us and great value for money.
