"We had the ocean view room on the second floor. It was newly renovated, with a beautiful private bathroom and beautiful wood work throughout. We were a bit spoiled when we were there, since there were no other guests on our floor during our stay. The kitchen and living room were spacious and well equipped, and Josh was always there to help us if we needed it. We would definitely stay here in the future"

SCP Hilo Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Grand Naniloa Hotel Hilo - a Doubletree by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Rooms are average size.and comfortable. However there is little storage space to unpack our clothes and stow our luggage so our room felt more cramped. The location is great with good restaurants nearby and the hotel restaurant is also delicious. Pool area was nice we.spent every afternoon there after coming back from excursions. Staff on site is friendly. Would stay here again."

Howzit Hostels Hawaii

8/10 Good

"The place is good, convienient walking location to downtown and grocery. Young crowd. They Dont have AC that was a bit hard. The staff is really great (except one young guy who looked hungover and was rude). pancakes are yum. They keep kitchen clean and good amenities overall. Bathrooms only have shampoo and conditioner no bath soap, so carry your own. The other guests were very friendly and nice. They have community whatsapp group to share updates. Very young crowd so if elderly people in your group it might feel out of place. The place is on 2nd story with lots of stairs so if u have too many bags it will be tough. You have to find street parking and move the car every few hours based on restrictions on the street.. They have a tv in living area so u can see a match or volcano eruption status live."
