I loved staying here. The rooms were a little small, but very up to date. The air condition worked great on the hot days and evenings. Perfect location, close to the Ala Moana shopping mall, buses and the beach (only 1 block away). Breakfast was provided each morning in the lobby - just enough for all guests. There is a... more

I stayed here twice, on the way over and again on the way home from the US Mainland. This place is cute. One block back from Waikiki beach, within walking distance of buses and restaurants, small, cosy , clean and very friendly. Coming from Australia, my 66 year old mother and I needed to crash and their beds were soooooo... more

We enjoyed our stay at The Equus. We took the bus almost everywhere we went. Located near the Ala Moana Center and other great shopping places. We will stay at The Equus again. Great management. more

While the rooms are small they are very clean. The decor is creative; the service friendly. Location is perfect ... within easy walking distance of the heart of Waikiki and Ala Moana shopping center but far enough away to be out of the tourist craziness! Highly recommend. more

We just spent a week at the Equus hotel in Hawaii and it was a little piece of heaven amongst the barrage of tourists in the surrounding hotels. Its a quick block from the beachfront but is quiet and non intrusive unlike the noisy tourist filled hotels on the beach. It has many top restaurants nearby and all the comforts... more

Very cute hotel, typical small rooms of Honolulu, but very clean and close to everything. I recommend you do not rent a car as this hotel is near everything and parking was pricey. more

We booked this room as a stopover between flights using the the Priceline service (where you pick the area and the price and are booked into a mystery hotel). It was pretty good at GBP45 incl tax for the night. The bed was very comfy and the room pleasant. Boutique in this case seemed to be an old hotel with... more

What a great boutique hotel, located so close to good shopping, fine beaches, the yacht club, and, wacky Waikiki. The staff is so personal and helpful. The rooms are so nicely appointed with big bamboo beds and tropical decor. The air conditioning is so quiet and efficient. I love the fridge and tiny kitchen set up. The price for the... more

This hotel was the perfect place for us to stay. The friendly atmosphere capped off what was a fantastic hotel. The staff were amazing, really friendly and personable...they remembered us from day to day and helped us out when we needed it. The rooms were awesome too...the amazing-ness of the beds actually tempted us to give up on the Hawaiian... more
