“Traveling on a budget”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

person found this review helpful

The Pagoda is great for people travelling on a budget. It is conveniently located OUTSIDE WAIKIKI and has a lot of different options. We stayed on the Terrace side so we had cooking facilities, large closets and lots of room. Bill at the front desk and the housekeeping staff (especially Esther and Cora) were great. I am glad the place is being refurbished since it had gone down hill in recent years. New paint, new dishes and cooking utensils and the removal of the horrible carpet from the hallways has made a big change. The staff seems really happy under the new management. So I look forward to even more change when I return in the future.

Room Tip: Don't get a room on the 1st floor of the terrace, the coming and going and noise is really too m...

“Convenient location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

person found this review helpful

This place is centrally located and made our stay very convenient. We were able to do some shopping as it was really close to a Ross store and Walmart, the Ala Moana mall and restaurants. The restaurant at the hotel made it even more convenient for my son and I since we didn't feel like walking outside the hotel after dark to have dinner. The hotel was obviously dated but it was clean and the bed was comfortable. Friendly and helpful staff.

“Local cozy, clean, friendly, comfortable & convenient.”

Although the hotel is outdated. They have done some up-grades, new beds, entrance flooring, newly painted rooms, clean carpets, good air-con & fridge, also some rooms have new beds that are so comfortable. Bill, Souki, Marlon & the housekeepers gave us a warm welcome & excellent service. Forgot to mention there is a microwave as well. The price is good, this is hotel side. The TERRACE has a full kitchen.

“Kauai traveler”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012

Always stay at The Pagoda Hotel whenever I go to Honolulu for business or pleasure. Staff is the best and the location is close for shopping or eating. Facilities may need some upgrading, but the housekeeping staff keeps everything clean and spotless. Front desk & telephone operators are super.

Room Tip: Higher floors have less noise.
