Priceline and Hotwire Forum: HI Oahu Best Western Plaza Airport - Priceline and Hotwire Forum

Not a good hotel. Awful location, bar next to it is extremely sleazy. The entire area is extremely sleazy. Would recommend not staying here unless you HAVE to be by the airport.

Wife and I stayed here enroute to Asia. We just wanted a comfortable bed close to the airport. Very convenient as there are free direct call phones in the baggage area of HNL and the free 24 hr. shuttle van appeared in a matter of minutes. Friendly driver and check in clerk. Wife had e-mailed earlier to request a quiet room, and we were pleased to get one on the top floor (12) overlooking the mountains/highway/ocean. Very clean room - no stains on the carpet, no mold in the tub area and the furnishings were better looking than some I've seen at the Sheraton Waikiki. Great TV reception and a good selection of programming. There's a nice little pool surrounded by a low rise motel-like section of the hotel. While the hotel is no 4* Hyatt, it serves its purpose well. HNL airport used to have on-site sleeping/shower facilities for $40 per 6 hour period, so this is far superior for that use. Parking is free, and there's a restaurant (Brysons) nearby if you get hungry. Public buses (19, 20) pass by the front door enroute to Hickam Airforce Base, HNL airport or Waikiki. Would stay here again when enroute elsewhere.

I've posted some photos on sister site RHP (Real Hotel Photos).

This hotel is fine if you just need a place to sleep that is close to the airport. I did not follow the advice of other travelers to call ahead and ask for a room away from the highway. Big Mistake. Our room was very close to the H1 highway and we barely slept due to the constant highway noise. Also, the rooms were clean but very small. We had a hard time fitting our family of 4 with luggage into the room, eventhough we were only there for 8 hours or so. Their shuttle service was prompt and convenient.
