1. Location

   Named after Hawaii's last princess, Sheraton Princess Kaiulani hotel is built on the grounds of her former estate across the street from Waikiki Beach.

   The hotel is surrounded by array of stores and restaurants, including International Marketplace. Bus stop is 50 yds away. Hotel grounds are very well landscaped, with palms, tropical plants and rock ponds all around. The lobby is open-air, and flowers are everywhere.


2. Rooms

   This hotel has 1,150 rooms. The best rooms are located in the high-rise Ainahau Tower (29 stories). Rooms are larger and more recently renovated, and you can see both the Diamond Head and the ocean from most rooms.

   There is also the original low-rise building with 2 wings: Princess Wing and Kaiulani Wing (11 stories each). Rooms here are older but neat and clean, most overlook nearby street and hotel grounds. The rooms have been recently renovated and double-insulated doors with soundproofing have been added which makes a big difference in the never-sleeping Waikiki.

    Each room has:
  • Beds: 1 king or 2 doubles
  • Air-conditioning
  • Large lanai with table and 2 chairs (exc. standard rooms)
  • Color cable TV
