Top Wailoa River State Park Hawaii Hotel Reviews

Newly Renovated Hilo Lagoon 2 BD Condo-A/C, Pool

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this conveniently located condo. The check in was smooth and the host was very quick to communicate if we had any questions. We appreciated the amenities provided such as condiments in the fridge, bathroom and laundry supplies. The beds were incredibly comfortable and all the appliances were easy to use. Will definitely stay again!"

Hilo Hawaiian Hotel, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

8/10 Good

"The property is a bit dated and could use some TLC. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff was great and breakfast was very good. Good location. Decent value and would stay here again."

Hilo Reeds Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Genuinely had a perfect experience with my week staying here! I'm from an area where AC is all but ubiquitous and I run warm, so I was a bit worried about the room being too hot. It wasn't an issue in the slightest! My room was laid out perfectly with a small balcony and multiple windows to capture the winds blowing through. I was perfectly comfortable and my room was equipped with a ceiling and floor fans for the rare times I wanted them. If anyone reading this is like me and reading reviews and worrying about the rooms being too warm, I can genuinely promise my room was never anything other than comfortable. Aside from the pleasant temperature, everything else was so smooth. I didn't stay at a peak tourist time, but there was always plenty of parking available. Staff were always pleasant and helpful, and housekeeping always made sure my room's trash was taken out daily. My room was very clean and cozy. Location is fantastic, quiet but a short drive from everything in the Hilo area. My balcony view of Reed's Bay was wonderful; I saw sea turtles almost every day right from my room! I also really appreciated the on-site laundromat. Check-in and check-out were smooth and simple. The hotel is older (and there is no elevator), but it's clean and has a lot of positives too. I would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat, zero complaints and a super pleasant experience from start to finish! Thank you for such a nice stay!"

Grand Naniloa Hotel Hilo - a Doubletree by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"As soon as you pulled up the valet was very friendly and helpful with directions. The view to the ocean took my breath away as soon as you walked in to the main entrance. I enjoyed my stay and it was very pleasant having staff text me about current events and things going on around the area. For example the volcano being active so that we didn’t get to miss anything special about Hawaii. I didn’t even have to go anywhere and got to see sea turtles right outside the restaurant after breakfast the day before we were going to leave."

Hilo Lagoon Centre 814 2 King BR 2BA AC Ocean View

8/10 Good

"Over all we were very satisfied with our suite. We had a nice view of the park and sunrises, comfortable rooms, beds and air conditioning was great. Beach towels and beach chairs were much appreciated. The kitchen is small and has no dishwasher. Lighting over the dining area would have been welcomed. I would definitely stay there again because it is centrally located and comfortable and reasonably priced."

"Property was Perfection! Our only negative part was that we only got to stay there one night because we had to cut our trip short and leave early due to the pending hurricane. But we will be back!"
