TripAdvisor Traveler Rating

Very relaxing, not too challenging, great way to loosen up for the day! The first sentence is all I have to say but I'll add fluff to meet the min character.

Park Shore was an excellent choice for us to stay while visiting Waikiki. Walking distance to everything we needed. The staff was very courteous and helpful. Our room was very clean and I loved the mattress. We’ll be back and recommend it to our travel agent.

The hotel staff was very friendly and welcoming. Room was ok. Convenient location. We could walk to a lot of places to eat and the beach is directly across the street. Also ABC store right there. We ate many times at LuLu's that you can enter right from the hotel. The pool was devine!!

I could not get out of this hotel fast enough. BE WARNED...and you will see other reviews about this same issue (wish I'd looked here first) I booked an OceanFront room and the entire view was blocked from the right, but worse, the people in the rooms to the right were literally able to see right into our room and balcony. Bear in mind, I'd called the hotel to make this reservation but no one said our oceanfront room would be right up against another person's room and they would be looking directly at us when they sat on their balcony. When I questioned the front dest about the reservation, they said, "We wouldn't tell you that over the phone." The rooms themselves are outdated and the door was NOT sealed so the wind was blowing inside and there was about 1/4 inch opening at the bottom of the door. (it opens to the outside) We had to ask to have someone come up and help seal the bottom of the door because it was open and the wind was blowing into the room through the cracks in the sides. They installed a new weatherstrip but the other sides of the door weren't sealed so it was still blowing through. Threadbare sheets. Stained lampshades. It was kind of gross. They were supposed to move us but then didn't have the room ready on time and made us move our stuff downstairs. We ended up leaving the hotel early because I couldn't take staying here anymore. They are not service oriented, really didn't care we were unhappy with the room. I get this was a 3 star hotel but you'd be better off somewhere else. Yes, this hotel is across from the beach...but they nickel and dime you for everything....have to go to the front desk to get one beach towel each. It's really low budget (for expensive prices). The only thing good about this hotel is that it is next to a Starbucks & Lulu's...which was great.

Since moving away back in the late 90s every time I came back home to visit my first choice has always been Park Shore. Sure there are more fancy hotels (and you’ll pay more doing so) but the Park Shore just feels more like home. Best location by far, great staff, friendly people and great service. Lost count on how many times I’ve visited and will continue to do so. Mahalo Nui Loa.
