I stayed here during a business trip for two weeks. The photos on this site are fairly misleading. It's actually a pretty small hotel with many floors making up the parking garage. The rooms are modest but adequate. I did appreciate there being a fridge and microwave available in my room. The air and street traffic aren't terrible at night... More

Stuck unexpectedly overnight in Honolulu? Head to the Best Western. Friendly service, clean room with no funky smell. We arrived too late to eat in the restaurant but they had a great little store on site with beer, wine, cereal, milk, fruit, etc. By far the best hotel gift shop I've seen in awhile. Not a lot of gifts there,... More

If you need a hotel close to the HNL airport consider Best Western The Plaza Hotel. The airport transport is a breeze and takes only about ten minutes or less. The hotel is also very close to a few car rental agencies Alamo and Advantage are almost next to the hotel. A bus stop is right in front of the... More

We just returned after a one night stay to catch an early (7am) flight leaving from Honolulu. The property is very close to the airport and has a complimentary shuttle to and from the terminal. The property itself is basic and our two adjoining rooms were clean and functional. Our rooms had flat screen LCDs with small refrigerators and microwaves... More

Best Western was able to accommodate us as our plane connection was late so we couldn't get to Molokai that night. This was convenient as it is very close to the airport and the hotel provides free shuttles every 30 minutes. We did get a room near the back, Room 730, so we didn't hear all the highway noise other... More

We stayed at the Plaza for a week and a half in March 2012. The room was fairly small but satisfactory for our family. However, the highlight of our stay was the fantastic customer service exemplified by EVERYONE on staff, especially the servers in the restaurant - they all had a knack of making you feel valued like a member...

I read the trip advisor reviews with some apprehension, but gave in to the convenience of this hotel for a stopover from Vancouver to Sydney, australia. I asked for a quiet room, and mine was fine as it faced away from the freeway. Dinner was a quick dash across the street to the sushi place - nothing flash but ok.... More

I stayed at the Plaza in early January 2012. I picked this hotel because it was close to the airport and had a free airport shuttle. I flew in to Honolulu late in the evening and was flying to Maui early the next morning, so I wanted an inexpensive hotel convenient to the airport. The shuttle both from the airport... More

Stayed here for one night in late February 2012 after a late international flight in and an early morning flight out to Big Island. The hotel was handy to the airport.
