Honolulu: Hotels

Honolulu’s lodging options vary wildly, from glittering beachfront resorts where you’ll be pampered like Hawaiian royalty to older high- and mid-rises that are a stroll from the shore but still in the center of the action. Major chains like Sheraton, Marriott, Hilton and others are well represented, too, with huge resorts boasting luxurious spas, restaurants with celebrity mainland chefs, tiki bars, Polynesian gardens, and pools.
