Honolulu hotel guide. Highgate Independent hotel in Honolulu, Hawaii

"They don’t change bedsheets everyday, so many bugs in the bed, lifts are slow sometimes. Beach view was there but our view was blocked by the building. That room shouldn’t be "

"Loved it! "

"We had a great room, on the 4th floor which allowed us to walk right out to the pool and also to the breakfast buffet and the happy hour. We love this hotel! Will definitely stay here again!"

"Safe . Quiet. Free water . Washer and dryer 3.75 a load . Gift shop . Handicapped parking . Discount on overnight parking for Ramada members . No spa fee . Ihop . ABC STORE , Red Lobster and McDonald's all in walking distance . A bus to the airport is right on the street . Refrigerator. Microwave and vending machine next to the ice machine . Best deal in all of Waikiki ."

"I don’t recommend. The photos shown online and through Expedia are outdated and purposely misleading. The rooms are dirty and outdated. There was accumulated dust in certain areas, the shower wouldn’t drain so we would stand in water while showering, the room is not quiet. You can hear noise from other guests in the hallway, in their rooms, and from outside. The elevators are slow, tiny, and there are always consistent lines due to the lack of room inside the elevators and how long they take to operate. The parking garage is a nightmare. There are so many things this hotel lacks. I left a full review through Google. I do not recommend this hotel unless you do not have a car/rental car, and do not need or want to spend time at the hotel. "

"Our room was very clean and had a good view but it was unfortunately very small for 2 people. We made it work and the staff were very friendly and timely. The location is perfect for those who want to stay close to the Waikiki scene but far enough to enjoy some peace (away from speeding muscle cars and large clusters of people, and loud sirens). The gym was large enough and had the basic necessities to get a good workout. I appreciate the many elevators and the availability of an express elevators for the higher floors, as we did not have to wait too long. Parking was also very convenient and we did not have any issues finding a spot (noted: this was march 2026 and spring break was happening) We are overall very happy with our experience here at Outrigger Paradise!"

"The staff were professional and friendly. The room was cleaned each day. I recommend this property. "

"Everything was great!!"

"All around great experience. "
