The bathroom was clean, reasonably sized and comfortable. There was a wash basin on the right side of the bathroom, a toilet at the front, and a bathtub on the left side.

IMG_5561

Other amenities were also provided on the wash basin. There was shampoo, conditioner and body lotion here which were Sheraton original bath amenities “le grand bain” series. Refreshing citron, perennial vetiver, organic aloe and vitamins are blended and it seems that it is unscented and paraben free. There were no body soaps and toothbrushes, so I purchased them locally. As I learned later, it seems that you can get the toothbrush at the front desk.

Mini bar and cafe

There was a cafe corner on the desk between the beds. The cafe corner had a coffee maker, 2 bottled water, Kona coffee and tea. Kona coffee was so delicious that I drank it every morning. It was nice to have a cup of coffee every morning and take a walk on the beach with the cup in my hand. There is also a pot separately from the coffee machine, so I was able to boil hot water and eat cup noodles for a night snack.

Environment around the hotel

In front of the hotel is Waikiki Beach. Because there is a diamond head on the left side, I was able to enjoy the picturesque view of Waikiki Beach.

Because there is a promenade, it is the nice to be able to walk while looking at the sea. The waves were high on this day, and sometimes the waves splashed on  the promenade.

In front of Sheraton Waikiki is the “Royal Hawaiian Center,” one of the largest shopping centers in Hawaii, and it was a great location for shopping.

Staff and customer base

Everyone working at the hotel was very kind. When house keeping came to my room early in the morning when I was still getting dressed, I told her to com back in 30 minutes but she smiled and understood.

IMG_6018 (1)

The guests age ranged from 20’s to 70’s. I felt that there were more families with children and older people. It’s an atmosphere that is good for families rather than for young people.

Access

It is easy to access from the airport. This time I went to the hotel from the airport with a shuttle which the travel agency prepared for us, and it took around 20-30 minutes. Because the area around the hotel is in the center of Waikiki, there are many shopping centers and restaurants, and it was very busy until late at night. The security is good, but the shops nearby will close at around 23 o’clock, so people will suddenly disappear.

IMG_5879 (1)

Anyway, access is outstanding! There are so many places to shop and eat so I had trouble deciding where to start. There is a trolley stop right in front of the hotel, so it is very convenient for sightseeing in Hawaii.

Summary

“Sheraton Waikiki” is located in the center of Waikiki, and it is highly recommended to enjoy shopping, dining and the beaches around the hotel!  The infinity pool was a great place to spend time. However, since it is a large hotel, there were a large number of guests staying, so I did not like the crowdedness. We have been to Hawaii many times, but depending on the purpose of the stay and the number of travelers, it is more likely that we will not choose to stay at this hotel.
