We had very high expectations of our stay at the Halekulani. We had eaten here numerous times over the past few years and always had good experiences which had tempted us in to staying at the Hotel on our next visit. The Rates are high and so we did worry whether we should consider the stay good value for money but immediately we arrived our minds were put at rest. Check in was friendly fast and efficient and we were given a lovely room overlooking the pool and Pacific Ocean. The room was clean and comfortable and had a luxury feel. The air conditioning was working well and the bathroom was large and well supplied. Each day House Keeping took care of all the details and we felt very well looked after. We ate in House without a Key multiple times where we thoroughly enjoyed the evening entertainment (and the Mai Tai's) and the Sunday Buffet at Orchids restaurant was as good as we remembered (though a little disappointed the price did not now include a welcome glass of Prosecco though we had booked it before they changed this option. Minor detail though and it did not spoil our experience. The pool staff are very attentive and although a busy hotel there seemed to be enough sun beds each day. The staff generally were very professional and friendly and the entire Hotel felt quiet and relaxed the entire time despite being busy and being in one of the busiest parts of Waikiki. We cannot wait to go back !

Always best experience in Waikiki. The uniquely elegant atmosphere-found only at Halekulani-is simply superb.

Such a wonderful stay at this hotel - words alone cannot describe the beautiful setting and excellent accommodations, much less the food at the restaurants. We will definitely be back as this is the best hotel in the Honolulu area.

We just returned from five nights at the Halekulani in Honolulu and it was incredible. The hotel, food, service and staff were wonderful… From the moment we arrived to the moment we departed, the staff could not do enough for us.

I have traveled to the Hawaiian islands many times and stayed in fine hotels on five Hawaiian islands, but never in all my experience have I encountered such remarkable guest service, hospitality, warmth, and consistent excellence that at Halekulani. At all times, guests are greeted by name by everyone. Any guest request or preference is accommodated immediately, and noted for the future. We were treated like celebrities... This hotel, from start to finish, is simply a class act.

We are accustomed to staying in luxury accommodations, yet the beauty of the Halekulani hotel was breathtaking. We were stunned by the warm, outstanding service. No effort was too great to assure our comfort!! Our every desire was satisfied. We were positively delighted by the romance and perfection of La Mer restaurant and the outrageous pampering spa services we received.

My wife and I this past December, 2004, stayed at the Halekulani Hotel in Hawaii. The trip was wonderful. The hotel was beautiful and serene, and the service at the hotel was unlike any we have experienced. I would recommend this trip to anyone.

Halekulani, which means “house befitting heaven,” truly wears its name well. It was outstanding. The service was impeccable and the amenities more than satisfying. This truly was an unforgettable wonderful experience, from start to finish.
