Our stay here exceeded all expectations. The room was clean, the location was phenomenal, and the vibes were astronomical. The bar was amazing, special shout-out to Chad and black for making us feel so welcome and also making the best drinks in Wakiki (ask for Chad’s Paniolo punch or espresso martinis- it will not disappoint). Overall this was the best vacation my boyfriend and I have ever taken and a huge part of that was because of Paniolo and the kind, courteous, cool people that run the show. Not for nothing - but this is the first review I’ve left in my life. Thank you guys!! Mahalo :)

I had a chance to spend two nights at the Paniolo. Check-in was straightforward and simple, and the staff was very accommodating with regard to parking - there was none left in the small free lot under the hotel, so they gained access for me to a neighboring building's garage, and I was able to park without issue and at no charge. On my second night, I returned around 7pm and had no trouble finding parking in the attached lot. My room was simple but clean and had a small balcony; I was high up enough to have a little bit of a glimpse of the ocean. The lobby bar was quintessential Hawaii: laid back, with a mix of locals and tourists.

The location of this property is great: steps to Ala Moana Center and Ala Moana Park, and almost adjacent to the Ala Wai Promenada at the west end of Waikiki. For the price you can't beat it!
