Destination: Hawaii: Oahu
Overview Text Size A A A
Nearly all of Oahu’s hotels are located in Waikiki (and the majority of these are undergoing major renovations). Larger chains such as Starwood, Outrigger and Sheraton have multiple properties, many newly redone. Besides a few historic hotels, there are some high-end resorts and new high-rises. Business travelers who want to be near the convention center typically stay on the western side of Waikiki, closer to downtown Honolulu. Those looking for more of a hideaway would be better off at a hotel or a bed and breakfast east of Waikiki.
