Great location right by Waikiki Beach. The only complaint we had was that it isn't as quiet as we could hear the noises from the city and on our final night, our neighbors late in the night. The staff is very personable and accomodating. The hotel smelled pleasant (no smoke stenches). We had a wonderful time! more

We spent one night at Hotel Renew on our way home from a week in Kauai. It's in a nice location, just steps from a beautiful portion of Waikiki beach with great swimming and an easy walk up the waterfront avenue to other hotels, restaurants, and shops. It had the feel of a small, hip boutique hotel. Everything was very... more

We have just returned from a week stay at this hotel and had a wonderful time. This is a small quiet hotel and not a mega resort. The zen insprired lobby and rooms were refreshing from a long day on the beach and the crowds of Waikiki. The breakfast bar is on the very light side. Coffee, tea and pineapple... more

Not the place to stay if you want the conveniences of a "normal" hotel. No restaurant. Tiny bar. The rooms are small and decorated in an Asian design. Black and white, chrome, glass, mirrors and stone. It had a "very cold" atmosphere. The only good thing was that it was 50 yards from the beach. A definite "do not stay"... more

We stayed at Hotel Renew in mid-August. When we checked in we were given a room on the 3rd floor where you could hear all of the noise from the very busy street below. As I wanted to get good sleep and relax on my honeymoon trip, I didn't want any noise. We called the front desk asking for room... more

We were able to book the first 5 nights of our honeymoon at Hotel Renew for half price! By the time we got there, renovations were almost done- no visible signs, but we heard a few bangs of a hammer lat one afternoon. Didn't bother us at all! The room was gorgeous- modern Asian design, so clean and perfect! Dimmer... more

The four of us (husband and 2 teenage boys) recommend Hotel Renew unequivocally. Upon arrival, we were greeted with cool washcloths scented with lemongrass (which I placed on my sunburned shoulders for 2 hours!), and a cold glass of pineapple juice. Check in was a breeze. Our room appeared just as in the pictures. Modern, minimalist, comfortable (1st Hawaii project... more

My husband and I stayed at Hotel Renew in Feb. 2008. We selected this hotel based on the reviews we read from Trip Advisor. I have to say we were disappointed after hearing so many wonderful things. Our room was quite small. The bed took up most of the space. We had our golf clubs with us which we kept... more

Hotel Renew finished renovating the property about a month prior to our stay. It's a no-frills property - the rooms are nice and have a contemporary flair. We ended up staying in two different rooms during the week because we left to visit Maui and then came back prior going home. The rooms are pretty much as the website shows... more
