They are the best not just because of the location: the service and attention to detail is unsurpassed in this area. If we had our kids with us on this trip, we'd stay at the Hilton. But for a couples trip it's hard to beat the food, service and decor. Amex customers- we booked through Amex, and were upgraded upon... More

I'm in love with this hotel and I can't say enough about all the wonderful things we have experienced at this place. I think this is a perfect place to call home in Waikiki. When I now come to Oahu I only want to stay here. I admit that I'm a spoiled traveler, but what is wrong with being spoiled?

The most recent incident of racial discrimination that has been in the news has brought back bad memories of my own terrible experience at the Halekulani Hotel. A while back we stayed at this hotel for a seven day holiday and paid thousands of dollars for a prime Diamond Head view room. We enjoyed their restaurants and views very much... More

Discrimination at the Halekulani: My family and I stayed at the Halekulani from Friday, May 10 through Sunday, May 12, 2013. We've always enjoyed our visits there at the Halekulani and decided to spend the Mother’s Day weekend there again. The staff was courteous, professional and everyone made my family and I feel welcome. On Sunday, May 12 on our... More

Two thumbs up for this perfect luxury complex. Probably the best design rooms. Attention to details and service's delivery perfect. Ideal ambiance for every hour of the day. Best experience at all the three hotel restaurants.

Honolulu is a nice place to escape for the weekend when you live on Kauai. This property is a good escape from reality. The service was fantastic, as always. from the moment we arrived until we sadly departed, the Halekulani went above and beyond.

So, this is a great hotel. The ambiance is essentially perfect for a luxury vacation, or, say, a honeymoon. I stayed in a Diamond Head view room and it was wonderful. There are a couple of things which you should be aware of, particularly if you are here on business. 1) This is not a business hotel. The amenities you... More

This hotel is the ONLY place to stay in Hawaii if you value good 5 star accommodation. Recently refurbished, the hotel exudes class in every way. I always enjoyed returning to my hotel after days out touring. The hotel and its position is like a calm oasis that allows you to escape the noise and chaos of Waikiki whilst still... More

I hadn't been to Honolulu in many years, and was somewhat reluctant to spend precious vacation time to go there, but when the opportunity came up recently, we decided to take the chance. I was really pleased with our decision, and the Halekulani was a big part of that reason. The hotel is not "drop dead" fabulous as you go... More

We stayed at Halekulani for 6 unforgettable nights in September on our honeymoon. I have to say from the minute we checked in everything has been amazing. Service with a smile - the true Hawaiian way! Just think of sea views and the sound of the ukulele played every night whilst you relax in bed or your private balcony. We... More
