Enjoy a central location at the Ala Moana Hotel Honolulu. The Kona Tower and Waikiki Tower offer rooms with city or ocean views.
Though not in central Waikiki, this hotel is near everything a tourist needs. There's a pedestrian bridge from the hotel to the Ala Moana Shopping Center right next door, the Convention Center is just around the corner and Ala Moana Beach is right across the street. If you want to head down toward Waikiki Beach, it's about a 20-30 minute walk or you can just hop on a trolley or The Bus.
If you prefer to stay in, the four restaurants, Rumours nightclub and the Moana Lanai poolside bar provide plenty of dining options. And for even more dining options, the Ala Moana Shopping Center has a bit of everything.
