“Great Honolulu location,better than Waikiki for the price”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 23, 2013

Although at first we thought that we should have stayed in Waikiki we soon found out it was for the better.The room was well equipped and spacious with new flat screens and awesome views.
If you want to be a tourist and get to know Oahu,this is a great location.1 block from the old Hawaiian Theatre,a blockfrom the Iolani Palace and the staue of King Kamehameha and a block from the original China town.
The location is perfect to catch any bus anywhere else you want to go.The number 2 Bus picks you up and takes you tto Waikiki in 15 minutes for $2.50 return or to the Bishop Museum (a must).
You are a cab ride from the airport for $21 instead of $14.50 each for a shuttle.
Its a four block walk to the Aloha tower cruise ship terminal or to many excellent restaurants and pubs like Murphy's which was built in 1890 and you wont be disappointed for lunch or dinner.
You are also a bus ride to Pearl Harbor as driving and getting parking can be tough.

Room Tip: There are Ocean view or mountain view,we had a mountain view for New Years so we could see the firew...

“I will go there again!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 19, 2013

The suite I had was lovely, well equipped, large surface everything, all right. The suite I was given first had the best possible view, the port , the airport, the western part of the Honolulu area. I arrived late at night and the first thing I did was to have a shower where I found that the water was not drained from the bath tub. I reported that to the reception and after inspection they offered me another suite, equally satisfactory but facing a building at short distance… The so called complimentary breakfast is offered in an area at the top floor which was of the suite area (i.e. very small) and the food literally minimal. Having said some negative features I repeat that the quality and the price are very good. If I have to stay downtown I will go there again!

“Good for business travelers, but poorly located for tourists”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 17, 2013

I stayed at the Executive Centre Hotel during a recent business trip to Honolulu. The staff was friendly and helpful, and some of the views are great (the hotel is 40 stories high). The complementary breakfast was laughably meager, and the rooms themselves, while well-equipped and spacious, are for the most part shopworn and aged. One of my colleagues said that walking into his room was like a time-machine back to the 80s. The hotel's location in the city's central business district is ideal for a business traveler but tourists would be better served by staying in Waikiki (for those who like that sort of thing) or at one of the resorts on Oahu's North Shore or elsewhere. That said, the hotel is a good value by Oahu standards (my room was $184/night), and as I said, the staff is helpful and friendly.

Room Tip: Higher floors offer better views and less street noise.

Aloha RogerInNVA,

Thank you for taking the time to post your comments on TripAdvisor.com!

We are in full agreement that the Aston Executive Centre is not for "vacationers looking for a resort and/or Waikiki experience". You have, as many other local outer island visitors have discovered, the Aston Executive Centre is a perfect location for locals and visitors desiring to avoid the hustle and bustle of Waikiki.

As you stated, the Aston Executive Centre provides its guests with "great views", "a good value" and the "staff is helpful and friendly". The hotel offers a complimentary "continental breakfast" that is a lighter fare, not to be confused with a full American breakfast.

We sincerely appreciate your comments as we continually strive to improve our hotel.

MAHALO for posting your comments on TripAdvisor.com and we look forward to hosting you again!

Best regards,

Clem

“Comfortable, clean, kitchenette and jetted tub”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 10, 2013

We stayed here the night before we flew back to the mainland and the room was great. The kitchenette was fully stocked, with 2 little burners and dishes, etc. I don't think all rooms have this so we got lucky. The jetted tub was dated but clean and functional and met its purpose. Unit was clean, bed was comfy, and it was a quick ride to the airport in the morning. There's no room service, but they have this great food delivery service that will bring you food from basically any restaurant downtown for the same price or cheaper than room service would be. We got some delicious Thai food from Phuket Thai and we were happy campers. I had requested a higher-floor room and the view was nice. Would definitely stay here again.

“Good location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 9, 2013

I stayed for the weekend to attend meetings and a show. The location is convenient for downtown activities and the bus line. My room was clean and quiet. I will be staying here again. No line to check in or out, the front desk staff were helpful. There was a kitchen, yet no cookware, had I wanted to cook, I didn't. A toaster would have ben nice. The only downside, I could smell someone else's food cooking, a very strong onion smell.

Aloha JMK1,

Mahalo for choosing to stay at the Aston Executive Centre.

We are very happy you had a nice time. As you stated, "location is convenient for downtown activities and the bus line". Your "room was clean and quiet". That there was "no line to check in or out, the front desk staff were helpful". And you appreciated that "there was a kitchen" in your room if you desired to cook yourself a gourmet meal. Finally and most importantly, we are happy that you are pleased with the hotel and its staff that you "will stay here again".

We strive to do all we can. to make your stay a pleasant and relaxing experience. On your next stay, we would be happy to deliver a toaster for your use, for the duration of your entire stay. If you find yourself without sufficient kitchen supplies, wine glasses/opener, extra blankets/pillows, etc., please contact Housekeeping and we will gladly deliver what you need. Our friendly and helpful staff will do everything to insure you have what you need, to make your stay all you expect it to be.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review on the Aston Executive Centre.

Best regards,

Clem
