Hotel Overview:

We’re taking you back to a golden bygone era cloaked in hazy memories. Here, at the last of the vintage walk-up hotels, you can connect with your own visions of Hawaii right in the middle of Waikiki. Built in 1957 and reimagined for today, our lush, tropical oasis invites you to drop in, tune out and embrace the Waikiki of yesteryear. The hotel’s 94 rooms and suites, exterior walk-up corridors and private lanais make it a vintage gem suited for contemporary island life. A central sparkling pool and lounge area, cafe and bar create a perfect urban oasis in a prime location just two and half blocks from Waikiki Beach.

    Dining - Heyday Pool Bar & Restaurant:

    You won’t have to go far for delicious island coffee and an energizing meal any time of day. Heyday serves up freshly-squeezed juices, tropical Hawaiian fruit, baked goods, sandwiches and more.
