Recent Castle Hilo Hawaiian Review: "We spent 2 nights here, between stays in Kona and flying to Lihue. Our intentions were to use the day to "do the volcano", which we did on a tour. We were very happy with our choice of hotel. We had an ocean view room overlooking the harbour, bay, and coconut islane - couldn't have asked for better. The front desk staff were very helpful and always  cheerful. The onsite restaurant, which we used only for breakfast, seemed pricey for the service we received. The hotel had at least two large groups of high school students staying with them, but they were either well-controlled by their supervisors, or their rooms were fat from ours, as we never heard a sound from them, or neighboring rooms, or from the hall, all of which provided good sleeps. We will, if we got back to Hilo, stay here again."

    Location
    Overlooking Hilo Bay, the Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel enjoys a beautiful location in Hilo, Hawaii. Hilo is a quaint, flower-filled retreat with Victorian homes and a restored downtown area that experiences more rain than any other American city. The Big Island of Hawaii offers a plethora of recreational opportunities. From surfing and scuba diving to volcano and waterfall exploration, there is something for everyone. Old banyan trees line the drive to the hotel, most of which were planted in the 1930’s by celebrities such as Babe Ruth, Amelia Earhart and Cecil B. DeMille. Mauna Kea looms in the background and the arched bridge that leads to Coconut Island is only steps from the doors of the resort. The hotel is flanked by a beautiful beach, the Liliuokalani Gardens and the Naniloa Country Club.
    Hotel Rooms
    Most of the rooms at the hotel feature balconies or patios and have views of Hilo Bay or the enormous banyan trees out front. Cable television and Internet access are standard amenities.

    A short guide to Hilo

    Sugar was once king in Hilo. Now, the town is known for its bay, shops, and farmers market that teems with exotic fruit. Swaying hips abound at Hilo’s Merrie Monarch Festival, a week-long hula contest held after Easter. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is nearby. There, Kilauea is the hottest attraction as one of the world’s most active volcanoes. At its helm is Pele, the Hawaiian volcano goddess.
