Ala Moana Hotel
The Ala Moana Hotel is a hotel in Honolulu, Hawaii, made up of two towers with rooms decorated in an island style. It sits next to one of the largest shopping centers in the world and is within walking distance of the Hawaii Convention Center.
The hotel opened in the 1970s and quickly became a central point for travelers and Honolulu residents alike. Over the decades, the rooms and facilities have been updated several times while the building kept its place in the heart of the neighborhood.
The name Ala Moana means "ocean path" in Hawaiian, a nod to the channel that once ran through the area. Local artwork lines the public spaces, giving guests something to look at as they move through the building.
The hotel sits in the Ala Moana neighborhood, which is easy to explore on foot since the beach, the park and shops are all nearby. For trips to other parts of the island, it is a good idea to arrange a vehicle in advance, as public transport on Oahu can be limited.
The hotel sits right on the edge of Ala Moana Regional Park, one of the few urban parks in Honolulu where you can see the ocean from a hotel room window. This direct view of a public green space is unusual for a city hotel of this size.
