Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort

Honolulu, Oahu

Virgin rating

The hotel

Picture a white sand beach surrounded by acres of tropical grounds, with water sports galore and five different pools to cool off in. This is the Hilton Hawaiian Village. Amble over to the huge beachfront Super Pool or if you have kids in tow perhaps the family activity pool will tempt you. With more than 18 restaurants, cafés and bars, you can dine somewhere different every night too. And we recommend finding a good spot to watch the weekly Friday night fireworks show on the beach, you'll get some great snaps for the holiday album!

We stayed at the HHW in July 2024. There was good and bad. Pros-Good location, friendly staff, rooms are cleaned daily. Employees took good care of the landscaping. Cons-very crowded with lots of kids/families. There's 5 buildings here which makes in 5 resorts in one. The telephones on the floor don't work. If there's an emergency, you have to go to the Front Desk. The rooms are about 20 years outdated. Need fresh paint, furniture etc. etc. The vents are very dirty. You're breathing in dirty air which in turn, is very poor for your health. Poor signage. They want to keep you on the premesis so that you spend your money on overcharged food and drinks. There are no signs to show you where to go outside of the HHW. Security concerns. We stayed here for one week. Not once did we see security at the elevators to make sure that everyoen there was a guest. Overall, a mediocre experience. For the amount of money we paid, we should have had a much better vacation at HHW. We only went here because we have Hilton Honors. There are much better hotels to explore in the area. Read less
Image of the Tripadvisor rating Roaches. Dirty. Run down.

Jul 21, 2024 CRJ1726 Corpus Christi, Texas

This place is run down. I had nasty roaches in my room and reported it and nothing was done. It is gross. The food is typical hotel food and not very good. I would not recommend a stay at this hotel. You can get a much better hotel for the outrages priced they charge.

This hotel is overcrowded, old, expensive, with a staff who doesn’t want to be there and doesn’t care. The pool is dirty with sand and a layer of film on top of it that makes the water looks hazy. There are not enough chairs and the poolside restaurants are not manned or closed. As a Diamond Member I expected a bottle of water when I checked… Read more
This hotel is overcrowded, old, expensive, with a staff who doesn’t want to be there and doesn’t care. The pool is dirty with sand and a layer of film on top of it that makes the water looks hazy. There are not enough chairs and the poolside restaurants are not manned or closed. As a Diamond Member I expected a bottle of water when I checked in but to get that I had to go and listen to the concierge try to sell me activities. Overall I will Never stay there again. Read less
