Bamboo Waikiki Hotel

Had an amazing stay at the Bamboo! Came into town for the marathon and really appreciated the convenient location and cozy accommodations. The kitchenette had everything I needed to store snacks and extra fuel for the marathon. It was just a friend and I, and we really loved that Bamboo was such a walkable spot from all of the things. Literally less than 5 min from the beach, lots of food options around, diamond head and the farmers markets were close, and it was literally a 10min walk from the finish of our marathon. The staff were extremely nice and thoughtful. Checked in on me a few times since I had a late check out. Always super helpful and conversational. I would 100% stay here again for the next visit.

Spent nearly a week at the Bamboo Waikiki and it was a great experience. Super convenient, so close to the beach (two small blocks). Great location as we were right in the heart of great food and shopping options. The atmosphere was quite good. Clean. Helpful staff and Cecilia was super friendly. The room was a bit small but the purpose of the trip was to be on the beach not sit in a hotel room. All the amenities you need in the room. The dyers on the 12th floor was broken so we did have to wait to use the dryer on the 8th or 4th floor.

We actually booked through a 3rd party site that was technically for an airbnb inside the hotel with amazing beach views.When we got there, the front desk had told us they had to make rebook us to a different room because of a leak!! We had no notification or warning of this change til we got there! The new room = OUR VIEW WAS OF THE WALL OF THE BUILDING NEXT DOOR, and was on the lower floor.So why did we spend nearly $500, NO APOLOGIES, no reinbursement or anything for a sad room. We paid for 3nights july 2nd-july 5th morning check out.When we checked in the front desk told us they didnt have any available parking on their lot - so my husband and I parked in the next door hotel (Pacific Monarch) and paid $30/day for 2 nights. Right when we left our car the staff told us we are not allowed to park there unless we were guests of THEIR hotel and if we try to park in their hotel again we would get towed?? Amenities = we went swimming and realized a few minutes in the pool was extremely dirty, NOT clean at all. Dead bugs and leaves were floating in the pool, and employees working the restaurant were laying on the beach chairs.We asked our front desk for extra shampoo & conditioners because we were there for 3 days and she said please ask the morning shift front desk ladies.. Pros: -location of hotel was closeby to all the restaurants! & 2 min walk to the beach. -they have a cool rock/mountain decor waterfall in the pool area.- the inside of out room smelled nice & had a full pull out couch/bed. Unfortunately the cons outweighed the pros; I probably would not recommend this hotel solely because 1. Front desk customer service wasn't helpful except one of the male front desk hooked it up with soap & shampoo & conditioner and didn't get upset when we asked for extra towels. 2. Parking was a nightmare !!!! They overbook the parking so you have no choice but to park on the street where you risk getting a ticket because the meters not working 3. They did not move us to a higher level with a view, which is what we paid for, you might just be facing the wall of nothingness!!

If you ever need a stable trip in Hawaii go elsewhere.This place is not professional having only people who scam people for extra charges they refuse to refund. They apparently have no contact information for their managers and their district either. If you're planning to book a a stay in Hawaii, DO NOT choose this location if you don't want to be paying an extra bill for a stay. The workers here are trying to make extra money by LYING to their consumers and giving them NO RECEIPTS from any payment history from your account.

Older hotel with the comforts of home (kitchenette with microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker, sink, iron & ironing board, Pots, glassware w utensils, electric two burner top), nice size room with private balcony. Walk to shops, eateries, & beach. Value for the price. They do charge you @$200 for cleaning fee added toYour room total and they do not service the room daily. I did request and get from the front desk- extra coffee , towels, & toiletries. My room was on the 8th floor - pretty quiet. Laundry facility on this floor also. So if you just need a quiet place without all the fancy extras the larger hotels offer this place will work. Then you'll have more $ to play with.

Pros.. super convenient location right in the heart of Waikiki. Walkable distance to the beach, dining, and shopping. They had a bunch of surfboards, boogie boards, and floaties that previous customers had left and were free to use! The rooms included kitchens with microwave, stove top, and fridge. Cons.. one of the main reasons I booked was for the tropical pool and hot tub area. The hot tub was broken the whole time we were there. There was no parking available in the hotel three of the four nights we were there. So we had to park in another garage three blocks away. The restaurant by the pool did not serve alcohol.

Stay away!!! This place is bad!!! The elevator kept breaking down, the service was bad, and our room was never cleaned even after requesting it to be cleaned at the front desk.

Room 408 privately owned! Terrible musty smell throughout, carpet, cabinets, dishes, dresser! this room is not remodeled like other hotel owned studios. It faces another hotel above a large trash bin that is never closed. it is not worth $120.00 per night. the plastic cover on the pillows meant to keep out bed bugs actually hid the yellow staining showing the old age of them. the towels were nice.the studio needs a remodel.

Everything was great besides them charging you a cleaning fee for $177 for after your stay. In other words, you are charged $177 for them to clean your room after you leave rather than while you are staying there. How does that make any sense? Lol

Hotel was not expensive. They didn't clean the room unless you requested. You had to go to front desk to request more towels and soap. My view from balcony was facing a busy street. It was not quiet and when you tried to sleep the noise and pedestrian traffic was loud. Hotel is ok not very clean. Stove in kitchen was wiped with a greasy rag..
