A local favorite in the heart of Waikiki across from the beach

Comfort meets convenience at Pacific Beach Hotel, one of Waikiki's favorite, locally-owned hotels. Find yourself in the heart of the action on famed Kalakaua Avenue and across the street from the best swimming and sunning stretch of Waikiki Beach. More than 800 rooms offer island-style relaxation and remarkable ocean views. The Pacific Beach Hotel is one of only a few Waikiki hotels with a tennis court and the three-story, 280,000-gallon indoor aquarium is a trademark attraction.

Highlights
  • SNUBA dive with more than 70 sea creatures in the hotel's 280,000-gallon aquarium
  • Tennis courts with tennis pro on staff
  • newly renovated 24 -Hour Fitness location onsite

 

Location

The Pacific Beach Hotel sits across the street from Waikiki Beach's best stretch of sand and swimming and right on Waikiki's most happening shopping and dining strip. The Honolulu Zoo, Waikiki Aquarium and 200-acre Kapiolani Park are about a 10- to 15-minute walk from the hotel.

Dining

Even locals line up at Oceanarium, the hotel's signature restaurant. Surrounding a 280,000-gallon saltwater aquarium, the restaurant attracts visitors as much for the views as the extravagant island-style brunch, dinner and weekend buffets.

Rooms

Choose a room in the 17-story Beach Tower or 38-story Oceanarium Tower. Each air-conditioned, island-themed room includes a private balcony, 37-inch HDTV, high-speed Internet access (fees apply), refrigerator, coffee maker, clock radio, hair dryer, voice message and data port telephone.

You get what you pay for!

Where to begin, Hidden Hotel Fees, and I got stuck in the elevator with an older lady who was freaking out. Contacted the hotel staff for assistance from the broken down elevator and was told assistance was on its way. After 10 minutes in a HOT elevator with a Old Lady freaking out, I decided to open the doors manually and assist everyone out. Don't use Elevator number 11. I will most likely NOT stay here again.

Good value, but...

It's a good value hotel, but two things bothered us. The key card didn't work and we had to go every day (sometimes twice!) back to the reception to change it. That was a very long walk way and very annoying, since the elevators were terrible slow and we had to wait a very long time for them. Also, except one employee, nobody else ever apologized for the inconvenience.

Love the location. Compare to the price of the room, it wasn't that expensive. In the center of Waikiki Beach. Close to any shopping mall, International Market.
