From curbside bell service to check-in to housekeeping, everything about the Outrigger was FANTASTIC! This vacation was a gift for my father so I wanted everything to be perfect and the Outrigger never disappointed us. We stayed in an oceanfront room w/ a large closet area that was more then adequate for 3 adults. We ate at both Dukes and The Hula Grill and found their prices were not much more then what I pay in California and the food was very good. Dukes has a great salad bar! Their location to lots of shopping no matter your budget is great for those who do not rent a car and the shops open early! A shuttle bus to the Arizona Memorial can be arranged with Bell Service and the cost for round trip is very reasonable. This was our first stay with Outrigger Waikiki and we will definitely return!

We just got back from six days at the Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach. We absolutely loved everything about it. The staff was helpful and friendly. The room was clean and smelled fresh. The view from the lanai of our partial ocean view room was very entertaining. We could see swimmers, surfers, and watch a large catamarran coming in and going back out with tourists. We ate in the Hula Grill every morning--great views of beach and Diamond Head. Food was good and fairly priced. We also ate one night at Duke's--great food but pricey. Try the Plantation Bar at happy hour for great prices on drinks and food. We hope to go back to Waikiki someday, and we will definetely stay at the Outrigger again. It really is centrally located in Waikiki--we walked everywhere. (Bring good shoes!) All in all it was a wonderful experience.

My niece and I just got back from a week long stay at the Outrigger Waikiki. What a great hotel! We were greeted with a very friendly staff from the moment we stepped out of the cab. The check in was easy and we were upgraded. We enjoyed the Hula Grill and Duke's. I was very impressed with them since my niece suffers from a severe allergy to shellfish. The staff made a point to go over the menu with us and recommend what she would be able to eat. They really made the extra effort for her safety. Yes, you can hear the people in the rooms next to you but thankfully ours weren't too loud. Other than at night we were rarely in the room anyway so it didn't matter. I would choose this hotel again.

The American travel company that booked our hotels would not allow us to stay at the Outrigger Reef on the Beach, where we normally stay, due to the redevelopment there.

Had a great stay in a partial Ocean View Room at the Outrigger Waikiki at the Beach. Room was large and clean and decor OK, but maybe could do with a make over. The only problem was that the room was noisy - you can hear the plumbing in all the surrounding rooms. Balcony small very tight for the two chairs and small table

We had little problems with lifts that others reported. Walked down the stairs when very busy, not the greatest stairwell, but it comes out in pool area.

Great service, food and views in the bars and restaurants. Book for Dukes and the Hula Grill in the evenings to get a good table and cut down the wait, they are popular.

Chucks Restaurant is currently closed and there is a little building noise, but not too intrusive. They will be carrying out a refurbishment to the Royal Hawaiian Hotel next-door from June onwards

No sunshades in the Pool area if you want to escape the sun for a while, but you can hire sunshades and chairs on the beach immediately in front of the hotel and access the sea and the pool.

Overall a great spot, would of given 5 stars but for the noisy plumbing
