The hotel is in a great location, right between the Royal Hawaiian Hotel and the Sheraton Moana Surfrider Hotel. The ocean view rooms are wonderful to view the sunset at night while being serranaded by music from Duke's Bar and Grill down on the 1st floor of the hotel. The hotel has a great pool overlooking the ocean and umbrellas if you prefer to sit out on the beach. There are two restaurants with wonderful food with enough variety for the entire family. There is also a Seattle's Best Coffee shop in the hotel and a deli for take out back to your beach chairs. The hotel is located right across the street from the International Market Place and close to lots of shopping and dining experiences. The service at the hotel is great and they are all friendly. The rooms were nice and clean and the beds comfortable.

Hotel was spectular. Best one on the beach. Thr resturants (The Hula girl,) (Dukes) and steak house were perfect. Hotel was centered of all activities. Great for handicap people. Hotel was clean and full of life which is what I wanted. Our room was Ocean Front and was beautiful and the sounds of the ocean was soothing. Will certainly stay at the same hotel. International market was right across the street and many more actitivies were at arms length. Bell service was great, bus service was great. I give it a 5 star hotel.

Upon check-in we received a free upgrade to a partial ocean view room. Check-in staff was very courteous and took only a few minutes. Room was very nice and the hotel's location is excellent (one of only a few hotels right on the beach, most are across the street or further from the water). Only ate at a hotel restaurant once (Chuck's Steakhouse) but it was very good. Usually ate out on the town or while touring. Paul at the Activities Center helped set up our schedule for the week so we had something special to do everyday. When we asked to change rooms because of noisy infants next door we were promptly moved to a new room (still with free partial ocean view) which had a much better view than the first room. Entire staff was courteous and helpful throughout.
Good and not so good.

I will start with the not so good, then let you know the good. When we arrived at the hotel, we were greeted by the head valet, who we gave a tip. Then he showed us to the front desk, and had the bell boy take our luggage to our room (we gave him another tip), then we had requested a crib for our baby and it was delivered a few minutes after our luggage, and when we didn't instantly give the guy a tip, he basically stormed out, as we said thank you and his response was "yeah." A couple days later I was standing by the bell desk (they must not have seen me standing there) because a few employees were talking about guests they had just "buttered up" (sounded like plain customer service), by telling them about a restaurant, but the guest's "hand just stayed in their pocket" - so the employee was complaining about not receiving a tip. I realize tipping is a nice courtesy these days, but it just seemed like every time you turned around, the employees had their hands out wiating for a tip.
Also, there is still noisy construction going on, so it interrupts a nice morning by the pool.
Good: Live music every night, Starbucks downstairs, and the restaurant has good food.
