Stayed here during our trip to Honolulu. The hotel is situated at the North end of Waikiki and is a short walk to the nearest beach. We found it to be a great location to get about, a short walk from Ala Moana Centre (a main stop for lots of buses around Oahu) and from the centre of Waikiki, as well as the hotel being on lots of bus routes itself. We were on the third floor with a good sized room, nice bathroom, comfy bed and decent tv. We only used the pool on the last morning as we were at the beach or sightseeing otherwise but this was also clean and the area well maintained. There were lots of places nearby for handy breakfasts and other meals: would recommend 24/7 Wailana Coffee House. The hotel was very clean and staff very friendly, there was also free wifi in the lobby which came in handy. On Thursday there was a complimentary reception in the lobby with a nice cocktail, snacks and live music: this was a nice touch we enjoyed. Would definitely recommend this hotel as a good base for the area and would stay again if lucky enough to come back to Honolulu

When we arrived, we had a pull-out bed and a king. We asked to be switched to two queens and the front desk staff quickly arranged this. Close to restaurants and the Ala Moana Center, the Aqua Palms is in a great location! We stayed here over Christmas and received a Christmas ornament and card from the staff. We enjoyed our stay here.

This hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Waikiki. I usually stay at the Hale Koa but it was full and was given the option to stay at Aqua Palms. The staff was amazing and very helpful. The room was spacious with a nice bed and a kitchenette but the furniture looked a little bit outdated and in need of replacement. It can be a little bit noisy at night since the hotel is located on the very busy Ala Moana Blvd. The parking garage is so tight that if you have an SUV or a minivan it would be hard for you to park or even drive inside the garage of multiple floors. Overall if you are looking for a good budget hotel in Waikiki this is the one.

Me and my husband stayed at this hotel and fell in love.When we got there the first room was very small and had no balcony.We went to the front desk and they switch us to a much larger room with a balcony and a great view with no problem.The staff was friendly and the maid was like clockwork she came the same time everyday and made sure we had plenty of soap and towels.Everything was within walking distance or on the bus route so we didnt need to rent a car.Overall we really enjoyed our stay hopefully we will be able to come back next year when we bring the kids
