Best Western The Plaza Hotel

This hotel is only a short walk from the airport but is showing its age and is not inexpensive.

We only stayed at this hotel because we had an early flight out of Honolulu airport. The room we were given was in the attached 2 level building and smelt like cigarettes. We asked if another room was available and they very promptly found us one in the main building, there was no issue with changing rooms. Im glad we didnt have to stay in the first room as this building is basically below the freeway and was so noisy they give you complimentary earplugs! There is also a free shuttle bus to take you to the airport, but its only a 20min walk from the airport anyway, we walked to the hotel from domestic terminal to check in. There are some food options close buy too, pizza, Hawaiian grill, sushi and McDonalds.

Stayed for one night, we always stay at the airport best western, but for some reason there was a new lady I have never met before and her name was (Sharon) filipino lady roughly around 50 years old. She was rough and no aloha at all no sense of humor or character. So we checked in on 07-05-16 and checked out on 07-06-16 around 5am. Later that day she called me around 1pm asking for my credit card, Sharon forgot to charge me my parking fee. She was told to call the wife who used her credit card. Other wise WE LOVE THE BEST WESTERN.

If you get TLA, go to Waikiki and enjoy a beautiful real hotel and beach view. This hotel is too expensive for the industrial area. Yes, vehicles (speeding motorcycles) are heard, because the hotel is a few feet from the interstate. If you are walking, there are not many restaurants nearby. I would not walk at night either. The hotel does not offer any special amenities. In the laundry room, you will spend about $6-8 for to wash and dry one load of clothes. The market inside the hotel is priced 3x more than normal. Don't waste your TLA at this Best Western, unless you like shabby furniture, poor customer service, overpriced lodging, and a super crowded parking garage. If you do stay at this location, hopefully your experience will be better than mine.

Chose this hotel for convenience & price, not for luxury/tourist purposes. Desk and housekeeping staff were very friendly & helpful. Military overflow housing residents at hotel were all very courteous. I was able to get specific directions to NEX shopping center next to base from them. Restaurant in hotel seemed understaffed. No hostess to greet diners both times I ate there. Had to wait for a waitress to come out to front from inside restaurant area. Parking garage spaces very close together. Hotel driveway entrance very short & not clearly marked, so easy to miss, coming off the street.
