Recent Aqua Palms Review: "We stayed at Aqua Palms and Spa for one night in September during our Hawaiian vacation. We wanted to spend one night in downtown Honolulu and after reading reviews, we picked Aqua Palms and Spa.
We arrived in Honolulu and went to the hotel right from the airport in our rental car. When we arrived, it was about 12pm. I had been sick and really wanted our room to be ready so I could sleep. My husband and I went to check in (it was just the two of us). We had reserved a city view room. The front desk clerk greeted us and asked us about our flight. She informed us that our room was in fact ready. She gave us our parking pass for our car and we were up to our room within five minutes. She also informed us we got a discount at IHOP and a coffee shop which is located next to the hotel.
The view of the room was great of downtown. There was a tiny balcony you could step out on. It was on the smaller side of a hotel room, but it was very clean. There were plenty of towels and free toiletries in the bathroom. Also a guide book for Honolulu in the room. There was also a free postcard in the room. King size bed was comfortable. The fake sand on the wall for decor was highly entertaining. It was a very bright, well lit room.
The bed was pushed up right against the wall on one side, so if its not easy for one of you to climb over this may be a problem. The couch was comfortable in the room. Plenty of bathroom space and a microwave and mini-frig with plenty of counter space about the frig. It was very roomy overall.
As for the location, it is right across the street from the Hilton Hawaiian Village. There is also a Mcdonalds, Aloha sushi, crazy shirts, abc stores, and plenty of other stores and restaurants within walking distance a few blocks around.
Parking was in the garage underneath the hotel. Big hills in parking garage, but seemed very safe. The elevators of the hotel were a bit slow though.
There is also a tour desk in the lobby where you can book different activities"

| A short guide to Waikiki |
|
Waikiki established its reputation as a getaway when the Moana Surfrider opened its doors in 1901. Today, more than 30,000 hotel rooms are packed in the skyscrapers along the golden sands of Waikiki Beach. At the end of Waikiki, Diamond Head towers as an enduring landmark. West of Waikiki, Pearl Harbor offers a somber testament to history and the victims of World War II.
