The Modern Honolulu is Waikiki's newest luxury hotel, located just steps from one of Hawaii's most famous beaches. Offering a glamorous yet understated take on the lifestyle hotel experience, it's posh without being pretentious, chic without being overdone, luxurious, yet brilliantly laid back.

The Modern Honolulu luxury hotel offers 353 stylish guestrooms, highlighting the glittering city skyline, moored yachts in the harbor, and spectacular ocean views. Many feature a private terrace where you can enjoy breakfast in your plush robe or play with an iPad borrowed from the hotel. If you would rather dine out, the Waikiki resort features exquisite culinary pursuits, including the celebrated Morimoto Waikiki. After dining, take a dip in the Sunrise Pool while indulging in a signature cocktail or bask under towering palms at the Sunset Pool. Round out the day with a pampering treatment at the hotel's revitalizing spa.

The 24 hour business center and proximity to the Hawaii Convention Center also make The Modern an ideal choice for business travelers.

Awesome place to stay!

The staff were super friendly and very helpful. The room was clean and neat, with an updated look (unlike other hotels around). My room overlooked the pools and the harbor, which was a gorgeous view to wake up to. On the evenings during the weekend, the live band could be heard playing when I opened my window- very soothing and wonderful to listen to while getting ready for dinner. It's a great place to stay for young professionals, and I would definitely come back again if I make another trip out to Honolulu.

Business getaway

Hotel was very nice. I had work daily on the north shore and The Modern Honolulu was an easy in and out each day. Close enough to all the action of shopping and the beach but just on the edge so I was not bottled up with the traffic down near the other hotels. Relaxing by the outstanding pool was a plus. Great pool, great service.
