Hotel: Stayed here for 1week, room was ok, but was not kept clean throughout the week. The beds were made and new towels were given daily, however the bathtub was never cleaned even when we left a note for the maid on the bed. When we arrived we had to ask for a different room, the 1st was right next... More

We stayed for 7 night in Aqua Skyline and the experience was superb. Initially when we arrived, we were surprised that the hotel actually read our comment and gave us the highest room available which was just under the penthouse level! We also were able to get the room with a better view of the city and slight ocean view.... More

We stayed at the Aqua Skyline at Island Colony for a week-long business trip in March 2013. In addition to being an excellent deal financially, the hotel was in a nice central location- within walking distance to shopping areas, the beach, and various nightlife and restaurants around Waikiki. Our room was on the 42nd floor, and had amazing views of... More

We stayed in a one bedroom apartment on 42nd floor with our 15 month old boy. Glad we bought our porta cot as cots are $25 a day! Air conditioning was loud but our boy slept through it. Great location, short walk to beach and all happenings, AWESOME view! Nice clean room with kitchenette had everything we needed. Our boy... More

I would highly recommend this hotel. It is in a great location in Waikiki, close to everything, including the shops and restaurants. Approximately three blocks from the beach. The views on the high floors are magnificent. The room was nicely renovated and was very clean. The hotel also has good security. The hotel provided excellent customer service from the moment...

Aqua Skyline is a great place to stay. We were happy to be able to walk such a short distance to Kuhio and Kalakaua Avenue. Our room was very roomy with a kitchenette, living room and large bedroom.

For me location, comfort, value, cleanliness are key to a good hotel. I do not need the services of a 5 star resort, I need a good "home base" while I am out busy beach hopping or seeing the sights. This hotel fit the bill for that. It does not have a fancy spa onsite or room service, or any... More

Honolulu is getting increasingly un-fun, but this is a pretty place. The remodeled rooms are quiet and comfortable and affordable. The higher you stay, the less noise you will hear, and the more of the topography you will see.. Thanks, Island Colony, for upgrading our room. Sue S
