We are staying in Princeville and decided to head over for the breakfast buffet today. View was magical and the food was good. It would have been a 5 star review if not for the fact that it took 25 min to get our car from the valet. They must have lost/misplaced the ticket. We asked four times where the heck our car was and it was always “it’s coming”. It took us almost as long to get our car as it did to eat. 20 people who came out after us waited minutes to get their cars. So aggravating when you have somewhere to go. After the second time we asked about it, something should have been done instead of brushing us off. Really, for such a top notch hotel, such a poorly run unprofessional valet stand. Ruined the whole experience for us.

My wife I have been to this property several times when it was the St. Regis and were excited to see the renovations since it became 1- Hotel. We decided to bring our 2 children and celebrate my son’s 11th birthday. This place had a special place in our hearts as it was the first trip my wife and I took when we were dating all those years ago! 1-hotel and especially the hotel GM, Mathieu, did not disappoint. The room was amazing and more than we could have asked for. The staff was friendly and inviting and the food delicious. The breakfast is a must because waking up to that view each morning is the only way to start your day. The property offers a great family pool that the kids loved, but also a separate “adults only”pool, if you need an escape! The gym was top notch and the resort has plenty of activities for everyone’s liking. The personal touch from the staff and hotel manager knowing this was a special week for us is really what made this a memorable trip. They even surprised my son with birthday gestures and the smile it brought to his face was something we will never forget. I highly recommend a visit here for a family or couples. This resort offers the best regardless of what you are looking for and the staff will ensure it’s an unforgettable visit. Thank you, 1- Hotel Hanalei. We will be back for sure.

My husband and I stayed at the 1 Hotel for 5 nights. This hotel is beautiful and the only luxury property in Hanalei. The service from the valets, to the front desk, to the bartenders and waiters, everyone was so helpful, nice and accommodating. We were in an ocean view king room . It was very comfortable with lots of space . It had a filtered water dispenser which was a great touch. They also had a Nespresso and tea kettle. They did not provide teabags, but I was able to get some at breakfast. The breakfast was great, nice selections on the menu and also a buffet. The breakfast sandwich and pancakes were our favorites. We ate in the Terrace as well. Very small and expensive bites, not sure it was worth the cost . However the live music and sunset moment was great . The spa was really great . I had a scrub and massage with Asher. He was exceptional. He was very skilled and intentional. One of the best massages I’ve had. And not your typical hotel experience. My husband also had a great experience with both a massage and a haircut. The hotel is also geared to families, so lots of kids and a large pool area for kids and families . We stayed mostly at the adult pool which was small, but great service . Hannah took good care of us . The hotel is also an easy 10 minute drive into Hanalei so it was easy to go town and enjoy the shops and restaurants there too.

When the St. Regis closed, 1 Hotel took over, renovated the property but the renovation lacks sophistication. It does not seem to have a direction. The rooms have low ceilings, making them feel claustrophobic. The showers drip water from poorly sealed plumbing. Doors and furniture have scratching, a sign of age or poor maintenance. The overall property's lay out is cumbersome. The staff is pleasant, smiles and is attentive. The 1 is and feels crowded. The property is fairly isolated so guests have very little options of things to do or places to go outside of the well manicured compound. The food is average at best. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. The Island would be well served by a property that has sophistication while retaining Hawaiian traditions. The 1 Hotel attempt leaves a lot to be desired. Not the experience I had expected, mostly because guests all gather in large number in the same areas, with loud music providing the topping on the cake. Average in taste and decoration, in fact it borderlines a motel feeling. Overpriced for what it is. Do not forget that the location, the natural setting itself is gorgeous.

Positives: rooms have incredible views. Listening to the waves every morning and nught is incredible. Gym is a benchmark. Best gym in a hotel by far. Negatives: rooms are small. Food is shameful for a 5 star hotel. Not many choices in Princeville, so you might get stuck eating here. Quality of burger is similar to something akin to a cafeteria at your local city zoo. We had several issues with the service. The personnel is very nice and helpful, but unreliable. There is not a front desk. Makes it very difficult to find someone to get help or simply ask a question. Simple tasks that should take a couple minutes, end up taking over 15-20. Good luck if you have a boat tour and need to leave very early. Hotel is far away from rest of the island. Takes near an hour to get anywhere. Rains a lot in this part as well. Hotel is small, run out of things to do quickly. In summary: spend your money elsewhere. In comparison to other 5 stars we’ve stayed at, this one has a long way to go.

I think the hotel is overrated for the price. It does have a nice semi secluded beach that’s protected from big waves. The staff at the valet is super friendly. The Hawaiian ladies at the reception are really nice, the other one is not so nice. We wanted to eat at Wailea terrace but their hot food side was broken so they weren’t serving much for dinner so we had to go elsewhere. I went to the spa for a massage, overall it feels like a basic spa with the Bamford amenities.

My husband and I drove out to 1 Hotel from Lihue to have lunch at one of the restaurants. However, when we arrived the guard at the hotel entrance wouldn’t let us through without a reservation. The hotel website didn’t mention that a reservation was necessary. I immediately contacted the restaurant hoping we could get a same day reservation, but I was told that they weren’t taking any reservations. However, the restaurant had walk ups available the next day, which was not helpful since I wasn’t driving back there the next day. If the hotel doesn’t allow walk ups for lunch and/or dinner then they should specify so on their website. I won’t bother trying to visit this hotel, or ever stay there after this experience. They obviously have an elitist attitude and are not accommodating to non guests.

Stunningly beautiful facility. Very new, clean, everything beautiful to look at, and amazing views.
Took a star off because it is kind of a stuffy place. Some of the staff was super friendly, some seemed like they had their noses turned up and didn’t want to be bothered. Tried calling concierge multiple days in a row, never got through, no voicemail was set up. Asked for room advice, lady was really unfriendly and said the most expensive rooms are the best, and would you really want to come all this way and not have the best? Seemed like a tone deaf answer when some rooms are more than double the cost.
The outside of the windows in the rooms need to be cleaned more often. They are dirty and makes for a hazy view.
One of the most beautiful properties I’ve stayed at, but just didn’t care for the vibe of some of the people and staff there, so probably wouldn’t go back.
Room tip: request a room higher and more towards the middle if you have a Mountain View. If you are low your view will be blocked by trees and landscaping by, and if you’re at the end you’ll be looking at a lot of empty fields. Towards the middle you’ll see a lot more ocean.
