Where to stay in Honolulu · Hawaiʻi

Choosing where to stay around Honolulu
View the location on a mapWaikīkī for a beach-focused stay
Waikīkī is Oʻahu's main hotel area, with shopping and restaurants along Kalākaua Avenue. If that setting suits your plans, compare addresses within the neighbourhood. The name Waikīkī does not guarantee a beachfront room or the same view across every room category.
Downtown for Honolulu's history
Downtown Honolulu includes landmarks such as ʻIolani Palace and the statue of Kamehameha I. It is a different part of the city from Waikīkī. List the places you want to visit, then compare how you will reach them from your accommodation. Some, including Washington Place, require a visit reservation.
What works for your stay?
| Your choice | Why consider it | Check before booking |
|---|---|---|
| A hotel in Waikīkī | Consider this if you want beach time and outings within the neighbourhood to shape your stay. | Check the precise address, route to the shore and room category; being nearby is not the same as having a view. |
| An address suited to historic visits | Compare this approach if Downtown Honolulu takes up a substantial part of your plans. | Check each site's reservation requirements and your transport before setting the order of your days. |
