Waikiki Central Hotel rescued us on two occasions when our travel plans changed at the start and finish of our planned visit to Waikiki. Our pre-booked AirBnB could not extend our stay but WCH, just around the corner from our AirBnB, took us on both nights and resident manager, Reece, arranged parking for us late at night outside office hours. The property is tired but reasonably maintained and very clean. Good value for money.

This hotel is perfect for a short trip. The location is great, staff is very friendly and I loved that you can reserve a parking spot ahead of time. There is also NO resort fee. I would stay here again.

We had an amazing stay, and for our first time in Oahu, we truly couldn’t have picked a better place! Waikiki Central Hotel may be a smaller property without all the typical resort-style amenities, but it more than makes up for it in every way that matters. First and foremost, the staff was outstanding. They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, always greeting us with the warm "Aloha" spirit that made us feel so welcome. Our room was clean and comfortable, and while daily housekeeping wasn't provided, the team was always quick and happy to assist with anything we needed. No resort fees—and yet everything you need for an amazing stay is right here. Location-wise, it doesn't get better. The hotel is truly central—just steps from Waikiki Beach, and a short walk to fantastic food spots, the International Market, Waikiki Shopping Plaza, and more. We will absolutely be staying here again. Thank you, Waikiki Central Hotel, for making our first trip to Oahu so special!

I love the fact that everything is so nearby. They don't call it Waikiki "Central" Hotel for nothing. You literally have food, shopping, the beach, etc within a block away from you. Staff was friendly and helpful. Parking is a plus and only $25/day which is reasonable. Overall a great stay. I would definitely book again in the future.

We stayed 7 nights at this hotel. Staff are helpful and friendly. There is no housekeeping everyday but you can ask reception for new towels, toiletries and what ever you need. Walkable location to Waikiki Beach. Easy access to all transport pick up stop at Duke Kahanamoku Statue and shopping. Although, our room was above the food trucks operating until late, it was noisy, but once you close the door you cannot hear anything. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will stay there again.

Joe’s quick stay

The room served its purpose. Quick stay before going to another island. Small room. Parking was tough the first night. I had paid for a reservation to park. When we got there after hours, there were no spots. Parked on the street with others. I got a parking ticket. The staff was looking into what they can do. If you want no frills room one block of Waikiki Beach this is the place.

The staff at this property was friendly and went above and beyond. But, out of their control, our room was located directly above a Korean BBQ food truck, so the bbq smoke and their deafening generator (couldn’t hold a conversation on our deck) was an issue from 10am until 11pm. Even with the windows closed, all of our clothes smelled of bbq smoke at the end of our 2 day stay. Also, a group of homeless men camped out on the sidewalk near the front of the property each night, drunk, smoking and using the sidewalk as their toilet.
