Ala Moana Hotel

Frommer's Review

After a multimillion-dollar transformation, this former 1,152-room hotel (on 36 floors) has been converted to a hotel-condominium (sometimes called a condotel), where the units are individually owned, but most are put onto the rental market for guests. Renovations include redone suites and a new pool, sun deck, and fitness center/spa. The Outrigger/Ohana Resort is managing this hotel, so it will run as smoothly as their brand properties. The main advantage of staying here is its proximity to Waikiki, the downtown financial and business district, the new convention center, and Hawaii's largest mall, Ala Moana Shopping Center. The rooms vary in price according to size: The cheaper rooms are small, but all come with two double beds and all the amenities you'll need to make your stay comfortable. The views of Waikiki and Honolulu from the upper floors are spectacular. Hot tip: Book on the website and save: Rooms start at $129 ($100 off the rack rate).

Facilities:
5 restaurants; 2 bars (plus a Polynesian show); large outdoor pool; small fitness room; game room; concierge; activities desk; business center; shopping arcade; salon; room service; coin-op washer/dryers; laundry service; dry cleaning
