We stayed at the one of the Historic Banyan King Room with City View for 4 nights, room was conveniently located in the main building, doesn’t come with a balcony, but has 2 windows. It gets noisy sometimes at night even though we stayed on the 4th floor. The resort also offers a list of cultural and wellness activities for booking, this is where the resort fee goes to, so make sure you book some of these activities if time permits. Overall we liked the hotel as it’s at the center of Waikiki and has direct access to the beach, several great restaurants and you can also pre-order Honolulu Coffee for pick-up at the hotel location.

This hotel named as “the First Lady” in Waikiki and the heritage building attracts you deeply and looks very nice. I think I was a bit misled by the platform about the “private beach” as it actually refer to a very small area that the hotel renting some umbrella for their guest and make it as a “private area” instead of a real private beach. However, the location is excellent located in the center of Waikiki beach with very close walking distance and we enjoy the time in the beach very much.

Great hospitality for bell boys, front people and housekeepers! It’s not new hotel but each room is very spacious and comfortable. Also, the pool in the night is romantic:)

The room worth about 30 dollars however it is at the best location.
There is no service it is just process.. not even A smile.
Bathroom is very old and dirty I have never seen bathroom that old in any hotels.
I thought this was one of the oldest hotel in Hawaii and People from hawaii is proud of it.
Very disappointed

This is the 5th time I have stayed at the Moana Surfrider the location and style of the hotel is unbeatable. You must book a room with beach views the city view rooms can be noisy. The hotel it’s self is beautiful. The staff are very professional and helpful. The rooms are a generous size for a couple. The pool is small but you can use the partner hotels next door. They have an accessible bar and the breakfast is great. I will definitely be staying here again.

We have always wanted to stay at this beautiful historical hotel. Service is exceptional. We had dinner at the beach house at the hotel, food was fantastic and service amazing. Highly recommend but on the pricey side

It was a wonderful experience at this hotel. The location was perfect, easy access to the beach, the food was amazing, the employees were much hospitable and kind and the whole area was clean.
Truly, I will go back and inform my friends to stay in this hotel when they are in Waikiki.

The hotel is in a great location with many great dinning and shopping options. It’s right on the beautiful Waikiki beach and they offer lounge chair and umbrella rentals for your day on the beach. The room was modern, spacious and had a partial view of the ocean.

The perfect location to enjoy the popular area of Waikiki Beach. The hotel is directly in the beach and the water was warm. We loved watching all the surfers directly off the outdoor beachside restaurant. We would stay again!

A lobby with a refreshing breeze and a large banyan tree
A clean and comfortable bed, plenty of towels and water
I was surprised that the room was larger than I expected.
It's also a convenient location for going out.
You can also take yoga activities every morning while listening to the sound of the waves.
I really liked it and it was a perfect fit for the name of a Hawaiian noblewoman. I would definitely like to stay here again.
