Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort
I stayed at the kalia tower room. I think it needs to be more updated. Hawaii is beautiful and there are lots of entertainment and activities offered this hotel. I plan on coming back to Hawaii. However a different tower not the kalia tower.

Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort
Room was nice. Hotel was nice. In a great location. I disliked that kids were not allowed use floaties in the pool. Even when there was a private adult only pool.
