First experience with hostel. Facilities were clean, met my needs. Enjoyed open air lounge. Was walking distance close to beach, shopping, sights. Very good bus service to anywhere. Everyone very friendly and helpful—both staff and other guests. I really enjoyed meeting people from all over the world.

I would definitely recommend Waikiki Beachside Hostel. I stayed there twice in different years and I had a great experience.

Great location. Staff are amazing. Rooms are basic. Extra room hangers on the walls would be an added bonus. No where to hang anything except bathroom or off your bunk, at least in the room I was in. Pancake breakfast and coffee in the morning is great.

I tried to extend my stay for one night and the front desk was very unhelpful, she told me to do it on Hostelworld and walked away. I rebooked it on Hostelworld but apparently I booked it on the wrong room. If the front desk would have told me which one to choose I would have chose the right one. Anyways I got charged for two stays instead of one and I am ineligible for a refund because of their cancellation policy. She even told me I would get a refund. What happened?

Ashley was the best! Friendly, welcoming and she also has a great attitude. I had some mix ups during my stay and she handled it with grace when she didn’t need to at all. When you check in, you’ll know who she is 🙂 Great big smile and big sister energy.

hostel très bien situé, les espaces communs sont agréables, juste que notre chambre quand on est arrivé était pas nettoyé plein de verre à coter de nos lits, la salle de bain pas au top de la propreté. mais le rapport qualité prix est très bien pour quelque jours

Great value for money. A two minute walk from the beach, right next to an ABC store, and a bus stop. Clean facilities, lovely gym and common area. Staff was helpful. Would stay again.

Great stay at Waikiki Beachside Hostel. The location is excellent, just steps from Waikiki Beach, with easy access to food, tours, and public transportation. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere made it easy to meet other travelers. Rooms were simple but clean, and the common areas were lively without feeling chaotic. Solid option for anyone looking for an affordable, social place to stay in Honolulu.

Okay for a one-night stay, but not for an extended trip. Staff are mostly kind, though one (Ash) was rude. The bed was plastic-wrapped and uncomfortable. Worst of all, the 2 bed room layout was a walkthrough for another 2 extra guests
