The Ala Moana Hotel is one of the best Honolulu, Oahu hotel deals attached to the largest shopping mall in the islands and a mere block from the beach and Hawaii Convention Center. Guests report that the location is perfect for conventioneers looking for easy access to restaurants, shops and the airport without being in Waikiki. 

 

This Oahu hotel has a casual tropical ambiance and comfortable, roomy and well-appointed guest rooms.

 

The property consists of two towers. The main Waikiki tower has over 30 floors with sweeping mountain, city and ocean views. The second is the smaller and more moderately priced Kona Tower toward the rear of the property with views of the Ala Moana Shopping Center parking lot. It offers smaller rooms, queen bed and a sofa sleeper. 

 

Cool Stuff We Like

In addition to the expansive pool, the hotel is connected via a short walkway to the ever-expanding Ala Moana shopping Center. The mall is the center of Oahu entertainment and offers world class shopping, and restaurants. Across the street is one of the islands most popular urban parks. Ala Moana Beach Park is family-friendly and lifeguarded. It is the location of more than one local surf spot, tennis courts, jogging paths and fishing.

 

Unlike most hotels in Waikiki, The Ala Moana Hotel is a main stop for tour and sightseeing busses. Everything from Arizona Memorial tours to airport shuttle busses just outside the hotel lobby. This hotel is usually the first stop toward Waikiki and the last stop before the airport and cruise ship piers.
