Friendly service from start to finish. Valet very help with luggage, parking and even made a run to our car for us when we forgot something. Front desk very prompt and informative. Rooms were clean and we had a WONDERFUL view of the marina and up the coast line. We loved having direct Waikiki beach access as well and it's right next to Hilton Hawaiian Village so you get to watch their Friday night fireworks at Ilikai prices :) . My only wish is that you didn't have to go to the front desk for ice or that the refrigerators in the room had actual ice makers. LOVE that the only thing we have to do to get new, clean beach towels is swing by the desk on our way out the door. Very convenient and we don't have to wait for anyone to bring them to us. Also love the "bathers elevator" on the other side by the gift shop so there's not water dripping everywhere on the tile when people come in from the pool or beach. OH and don't skip the ice cream shop... it's FANTASTIC!!!!!

Not as good as the Waikiki Marina Resort rooms

We stayed one week in the Waikiki Marina Resort and one week in the Ilikai Lite. these are rooms in the same building (Ilikai Tower). The Waikiki Marina Resort rooms were nicer, newer furnishings and much better bed. It was also almost half the price. I will say that the staff at the front desk of the Ilikai Lite were very nice and accommodating (but then again so were those at the Waikiki Marina Resort).

Friendly staff and good location.

Upon checking into the hotel met with professionalism and warmth of the staff. There is some contradiction on the website which states two different Illikai Hotels, but they are the same hotel just different room levels. The Illikai Lite Hotel states ocean view, but there are no oceans views because the rooms are low floors so don’t be mislead. We upgraded the room to have a better view! No real issue with the stay at the hotel and would stay again.

Bad and old. Poorly maintained.

I expected more decent facility but it is old and poorly maintained. They suck me $18 a day for wifi. I think you should get rid of them from your selection.

Our first hotel in Hawaii. Amazed by the history of this building that almost started the cache of Waikiki. A favorite hotel of Elvis. The hotel Jack Lord stood on in tye opening credits of the original Hawaii 5-0. Lovely studio room with very workable kitchen.
