Top Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden Hotel Reviews

Hilo Reeds Bay Hotel

8/10 Good

"Generally this is a good place to stay. The view is fantastic and you can see the bay from the balcony of the room directly. The only issue is that there is no AC. Therefore, it is not a good idea to live here if the weather is too hot. The facilities are a little bit old but it still well deserves the price. If you are pursuing quality-price ratio, this is a very good choice."

SCP Hilo Hotel

8/10 Good

"Comfortable and peaceful place. I enjoyed staying at this hotel."

Kikala Waterfall Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Gorgeous setting and a nicely appointed house - had everything we needed! Communication through text/email for the check-in process was very straightforward. Our kids had a blast playing in the waterfall and sleeping in the loft. The stargazing is AMAZING if you get a clear night. This was a perfect, peaceful home base for exploring the Hilo side of the Big Island!"

Hilo Hawaiian Hotel, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

8/10 Good

"Loved the view of Coconut Island and being able to explore near by. Didn't like the ripped/stained curtains for the lanai. Restraunt was excellent. Vending machine gave us warm sodas and ice machine didnt work majority of the time for the floor we were on."

Hilo Bay Oceanfront B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Definitely stay here! The rooms are lovely as are the hosts. It's right on the water, a short walk or drive to the main shops & farmers market. Also a short drive to many lovely beaches. The breakfast was incredible - and they even accomodated gluten-free. Really great overall, great deal and we'll stay again if on Hilo!"

Hamakua Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This property was the highlight of our trip to Hilo. The gourmet dinner and included breakfasts were terrific. We will plan to come back!"

Hale Hilo Bay Tropical Hideaway

10/10 Excellent

"Nice quiet location with large yards and a classic vintage décor. Close to downtown. Pool is amazing, large and perfect for those hot humid days. Beautiful view as well. Host is amazing with good communication and quick response time. The home is surrounded by large double doors allowing you to open them up and let the entire home cool in the island breeze. Perfect location for your family retreat."

Honomu Place - Resort Oasis

10/10 Excellent

"Property manager was great at answering all of my question and even let us check in early in the morning. Pool area was fun."

Howzit Hostels Hawaii

10/10 Excellent

"They have free breakfast, clean room, spacious siting area, and very helpful staff. You can cook you food here as they have a well equipped kitchen. For those who want to see hilo night lava, they offer free tours also, but please remember to tip the staff. Normally tours like this cost $ 220 to 260 with tours companies in hilo"
