Front desk girls was nice, vala guys were good, cleaning ladies was so sweet, but.... close to the street so heard alot of noise but wouldn't have changed rooms the view was very pretty! We enjoyed our 1st time staying in hawaii the hotel helped with the enjoyment. The only BAD was the beds and pillows. We didnt sleep well due to bed and flat pillows. family of 4.

Everything was great. Only downside was check in was delayed and that was hard after being up since 4. Otherwise staff and property were great. Low key vibe that was away from the chaos but still really convenient to walk to the beach or shops.

Great property with a great restaurant, coffee shop and bar downstairs. The walls are a little thin between the rooms, but very nicely furnished. Wish there was a little more space to lounge around the pool (it got pretty crowded) but overall I really enjoyed my stay!

The hotel was walking distance from Waikiki beach and restaurants shops and had a good restaurant in the lobby area as well as a bar . Room was fine . Only complaint I had was thin walls . I can hear everything the room next to me was doing saying even in a normal tone voice . Didn’t bother me but it bothered the person next door when I watched tv and my tv was low . Other than that it was good .

Hip Hotel

The vibe of the hotel is very tropical, retro, vintage and chic. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Although you could hear the noisy street outside and the hallway noise from your room (ear plugs are recommended) Coffee, drinks and food at the Wayfinder were good. Location of the hotel is excellent, walking distance of 5-7 mins. to the best shops, restaurants, convenience stores and of course, waikiki beach. Parking can be really difficult, as there is very limited space.

We love Wayfinder Waikīkī!

Our stay at Wayfinder Waikīkī was nothing short of magical! From the moment we arrived, Virgee made our check-in extra special by surprising my children with local snacks and decorating the beds with beautiful purple orchids—they were absolutely thrilled. Every morning, we woke up to the most breathtaking view, making our trip even more unforgettable. The thoughtful touches and warm hospitality made our experience truly special. We can’t wait to come back! Thank you Wayfinder staff for being so kind and welcoming.

Adorable hotel with a great pool

Cutest hotel with great decor. We loved the pool bar and ended up spending most of our short trip by the pool. The coffee shop in the lobby is great. We were only there for one night so we didn't do much else.

Love the renovated looks and complimentary drinks by the pool. Staff are all friendly and give aloha vibes. The room is not noise proof from the outside but when you have AC on you can’t really hear the cars driving by. Overall I would stay again. Bed is also comfy!
