Absolutely loved the Aston Wakiki Sunset. It's in a great location (just one block back from the beach) and just a short walk to many shops and eateries. Stayed in a two bedbroom, Diamond Head view room on the 15th floor. Rooms are not the fanciest but are neat and tidy and everything you need. The only criticism I would... More

We were unaware of major construction being done to the hotel until we arrived: scaffolding around the entrance, beach view rooms lanais (porches) are being repainted/redone. Floors above 38 were being renovated. We hear heavy duty drills on the floors below despite not being directly below the renovation zone. Now, they are shutting off the water during our stay. We...

I wish I could say we enjoyed our stay at the Aston Waikiki Sunset. The unit was comfortable and spacious, and we loved the ocean view from our 33rd floor room. The property is an easy walk to the beach, zoo, Kuhio Beach Park and Kapiolani Park. The bedroom was spacious and the king bed was really comfortable. The kitchen... More

We enjoyed our stay at the Aston Waikiki Sunset. The pool was usually crowded but nice and there were available BBQ grills for cooking outside on the pool deck. Room was kind of small but nice none the less. More
