    Enjoyed Liliuokalani Park and Japanese Gardens, holiday lights festival in Japanese Gardens, live Hawaiian music at Grand Naniloa lobby bar, beautiful free zoo with great animals (donations welcome), waterfalls, proximity to Volcanoes NP. We stayed on the sunny side of the island for beach time for five days, then drove over the mountains and along the beautiful Hamakua coast (which has gorgeous botanical gardens) to Hilo, spent a day in Hilo - walked to Liliuokalani Park and around the Japanese gardens and the little island; drove to the zoo and waterfalls - and after two nights in Hilo checked out and drove to Volcanoes NP and spent the afternoon there, very crowded on Christmas Day; drove around towards Kona, had drinks and food at the King Kamehameha hotel in Kona and looked at the amazing huge collection of historical Hawaiian paintings and accompanying signs there, like a museum of old Hawaii; and drove to the airport and flew home.

    Downtown is pretty tired looking.

    Downtown is pretty tired looking. It really needs some upgrades and fresh look. However, the park is Fantastic!! Beautiful trees and walkways, really relaxing. Needs some coffee shops in the area. We had dinner at Ponds, great food but waiter was rude to the people at the next table.

    Friendly people in spite of inflation and still some great values. Beautiful geography and a wide variety of climates can be experienced on a single island. Downtown has been revitalized and there is even more nostalgia for the old Hawaiian buildings there since the Lahaina devastation on Maui.

    The beds are amazing - we slept really well despite being in a double bed. I love that there’s a fan and AC option. Location is perfect but you still need a car to get around. It suited us perfectly for 2 adults and 2 kids and was easy to go on tours from this location.

    Not a busy centre but certainly had enough features and options for us. Wonderful natural environment - as well as being within close proximity to sensational nature features. Preferred Hilo to Waikiki.

    Hilo is so different than other parts of Hawaii.

    Hilo is so different than other parts of Hawaii. It had an old-fashion-y feel to it. Older buildings in downtown and beautiful moss covered bridges. Gorgeous giant, old banyan trees and other beautiful trees and plants you dont get to see in other more popular locations. Has amazing waterfalls a short drive away and lots of farms that give the area a quaint feel.

    This is the second time I've stayed here and I really like this hotel, the staff is amazing, super friendly and helpful, the rooms are refurbished, modern, clean and comfortable, rooms with balconies are the best, the hotel has an amazing vibe and they always surprise with unexpected events, last time was a complimentary lei-making event and this time was a complimentary local fruit tasting, fantastic pool, great business center and a good price.

    Excellent communication from the management. The door code was texted to me prior to our arrival. It’s located minutes from Hilo harbor, in a safe suburban neighborhood. Our cottage had a large bathroom & shower, a small table & 2 chairs, kitchen (though we didn’t cook), an outside deck, a queen bed & 2 twin beds. We enjoyed the large space.

    beautiful suite in home near the ocean just north of Hilo. A great surfing beach a short walk away. Morning breakfast provided by host including Hawaiian fruit and Kona coffee couldn’t be better. Hot tub and swimming pool a wonderful plus. The host very friendly and helpful. We recommend this stay over hotel!

    Nice hotel. Lovely lobby bar and fireplace overlooking the bay. Same wonderful view from our room, comfortable bed, bathroom was a tad tough due to no counter space by the sink, and could use an update. Restaurant for dinner had no vibe and slow service, but overall hotel was very clean and a lovely find in Hilo.

    Nice 100 year-old house above the beach, within walking distance of downtown Hilo. Full use of well-equipped kitchen. Fruits (papaya), veggies (avocados) and packaged snacks were on hand, included. Breakfast was real and home cooked, not the horrible packaged processed food you find in hotels.

    Well equipped and warmly decorated apartment in the heart of Hilo. Whale logo nicely implemented to perfection and applied to any detail. Communication and check in were seamless. We appreciated the welcome treats. We really felt like home here and would like come back anytime soon.

    Because of poor neighborhood, my family was not comfortable staying in the hotel, we booked another hotel, we did not go to the hotel. We were expecting refund but not yet happened. Priceline customer care did not help us to resolve the issue.

    The best thing about this hotel was the bagel and sliced fruit which could have been bought at any gas station. I did enjoy all the tiki carvings. The coqui frogs helped me to fall asleep. I could hear waves crashing from the hotel.

    My room had an incredible vista down to the ocean, it was wonderful to wake up to! Very cozy room with all your basic amenities, it was perfect for a shore stay in Hilo. Beautiful garden with hammocks and cats! Haha :)

    Easy to get to downtown Hilo, the airport and looks over the bay and coconut island. We had a room that faced the road and didn't find the noise to be an issue. Lots of nice parks nearby as well as the water.

    This place was cool, a bit funky and I loved it. Definitely not your standard hotel but it felt so authentically Hawaii. By far the most memorable hotel of our two week long trip across Hawaii.
