Recent Pacific Beach Hotel Review: "We were on our honeymoon and the hotel was great. Very friendly and helpful staff. We stayed in an 'Ocean View' room which was spacious with a descent view. The room was VERY clean and housekeeping did a super job of cleaning it everyday while we were out. Many people have said the beds are bad - nope - beds were very comfortable. The hotel IS walking  distance to many attractions, The zoo is a 2 minute walk away and a very nice little place to go, especially in the morning when there are fewer people. There ARE many homeless people about but they are everywhere, not just in front of this hotel. That being said the police station is right down the street and you see cop cars everywhere so no need to be frightened (also there are tourist ambassadors in yellow shirts everywhere also who are there to assist and make you fell safe) - but the homeless folks are not threatening, in fact if you stop to chat they are indeed very friendly, much like everyone in Hawaii. Yes, as many have said, there are many Japanese tourists...good for them, they deserve a holiday too. They are friendly and courteous tourists who keep to themselves but if appraoched are very happy to meet you and chat. Perhaps instead of being critical of the Japanese tourists those people could have helped them have an easier time by translating for them or explaining something for them. Just because the menu looks to have Japanese writing does not mean it was translatted properly. Speaking of menus, we did manage to eat at the fishtank restaurant in the hotel for the buffet dinner - expensive but very yummy with king crab, prime rib and even a chocolate fountain to dip fruit into - it was worth the price and the giant aquarium IS fun to look at. Many people have said the pool is small and terrible - we used it almost everyday. It is small, sure, but the ocean is big and across the street. The pool was fun and exileratingly cold which made it wonderful to jump into the jakuzzi next to it. It was nice to"

  • 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.
