Hilo Hawaiian Hotel, Trademark Collection by Wyndham

8/10 Good

"The staff was very friendly, especially Maui who was always very personable. They were so friendly that I bought a Hopia Cake for them to share. A very beautiful hotel. Too bad the bridge that leads to Coconut Island is broken because I was really looking forward to going to it. The WSW Restaurant had great food. In fact, I believe I had one of the best steaks when I ordered the Sizzling Steak."

2/10 Terrible

"Unfortunately, our stay was seriously affected by a persistent noise issue. There was a constant metallic banging sound coming from above the entrance-side room, almost every second, and the high ceiling made it even louder. Even with earplugs, it was very difficult to sleep. The noise continued and seemed to get worse during the stay. It also affected another room, as my colleague was woken up by the same noise and had to use earplugs as well. This confirmed that it was not just personal sensitivity, but a real issue affecting proper rest. We reported the problem, but felt it was not taken seriously. The response was that “people sleep differently,” and moving rooms was treated as our personal request rather than a response to a serious problem. Because of this, I had to stay somewhere else after the second day.The room layout was also very strange. The main entrance opens directly into one of the rooms instead of a normal living room or entry area. It felt like the room had been converted from an entrance compartment, which made it less comfortable and private.Considering the unresolved noise, unusual layout, and the need to find another place to sleep, this property was not worth the money for us."
