Top Ainaloa Hotel Reviews

Hilo Reeds Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very helpful, and friendly staff. They have parking.Close to the beach, very large room. For families looking to stay in hilo for 7 or more days, room here have kitchens"

Hoomaikai Blessing's

8/10 Good

"The owner was very helpful with what I was trying to accomplish on the island while I stayed with her.. she gave me so much information concerning the area and places to visit.. ex: beaches parks. She made the most delicious pineapple muffins.. my choice for breakfast. She was prepared to make much more but I'm a light eater. I really loved staying there!"

Lokahi Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay. Very nice setup."

Grand Naniloa Hotel Hilo - a Doubletree by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were very comfortable and the staff friendly. I’d recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Hilo. The view of Hilo bay was spectacular !"

The Inn at Kulaniapia Falls

8/10 Good

"Flies in the barn was an extreme nuisance. Uncut grass from cabin 5 to the barn was annoying. The falls was a amazing. However, be extremely careful if you take the short hike because the uneven rocks is a challenge especially if it rain (9 out 10 times it'll rain). Despite that, Jordan, Abby, & Cady (not in order) was top of line from hospitality, interaction, professionalism, tidiness, etc. & they wasn't ugly :-)"

Volcano Forest Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Cute mom-and-pop property in a great location near Volcanoes National Park. It felt more like staying in a little house in the rainforest than a hotel. A little rustic, but in a good way. Hearing the birds and other animals at night made it really special. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!"

SCP Hilo Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff is great, room was clean and they have access to a laundry room. There are fees for the laundry room, but it can be very convenient. The best part of this hotel is how nice the staff is and how welcoming they are."

Hilo Vacation Rental

10/10 Excellent

"👍all good …………………………………."

The Pacifica Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The owners (different than the host) are the best! They made sure that we have everything we need to make our stay comfortable and stress-free as our house in Ka’u was damaged by Hurricane Lala. The Nene Room was beautiful, clean and peaceful with its large picture window overlooking the serene forest. We also stayed in Gecko room that has one bedroom, living room, and kitchen. The Gecko room is comfortable and perfect for family and longer stays. The surrounding is quiet and close to stores, restaurants, and very close proximity to Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park."
