Hi,

Stayed there last year and also visited it for a day at easter enroute back to Boston.

I stayed in the Alli tower ( very nice)

Do you have Hilton status?

Swimming pools are ok ( large for Waikiki but smaller compared to other hiltons). It is right beside the beach so you can go for a swim.

$35 taxi from HNL airport.

The landscaping is very good with lots of birds and fish in the ponds.
Lots of shops and restaurants.

Rooms are fine.

Regards

TBS

Hi,

In the Alii Tower the higher floor rooms will offer a better view of diamond head as there is a building which can block half of Diamond head from the lower floors ( all rooms will either face directly to the ocean or facing Diamond head).
As a Gold you should get a coupon which gives you free continental breakfast in the bar area by the Alii pool( this is also the place for evening snacks(free but you have to pay for drinks) ( accessable with your room key) ( saves $14 per day) and the fitness room is beside the pool area also.

The Alii tower has a separate check in in the buliding itself ( no need to queue in the main lobby)

You will get a fruit plate on arrival.

Three room serivces a day
(1) Main cleaning service
(2) Afternoon Ice bucket filling up- a nice touch after returning to your room
(3) Evening turndown service

I think there is a fridge in the room and you get a bathrobe and slippers in your room.

Regards

TBS
