Hilo Vacation Rental, hotel in Hilo

A good location for a hassle-free holiday in Hilo, Hilo Vacation Rental is a guest house surrounded by views of the city.

Because of poor neighborhood, my family was not comfortable staying in the hotel, we booked another hotel, we did not go to the hotel. We were expecting refund but not yet happened. Priceline customer care did not help us to resolve the issue.

    Enjoyed Liliuokalani Park and Japanese Gardens, holiday lights festival in Japanese Gardens, live Hawaiian music at Grand Naniloa lobby bar, beautiful free zoo with great animals (donations welcome), waterfalls, proximity to Volcanoes NP. We stayed on the sunny side of the island for beach time for five days, then drove over the mountains and along the beautiful Hamakua coast (which has gorgeous botanical gardens) to Hilo, spent a day in Hilo - walked to Liliuokalani Park and around the Japanese gardens and the little island; drove to the zoo and waterfalls - and after two nights in Hilo checked out and drove to Volcanoes NP and spent the afternoon there, very crowded on Christmas Day; drove around towards Kona, had drinks and food at the King Kamehameha hotel in Kona and looked at the amazing huge collection of historical Hawaiian paintings and accompanying signs there, like a museum of old Hawaii; and drove to the airport and flew home.

    Downtown is pretty tired looking.

    Downtown is pretty tired looking. It really needs some upgrades and fresh look. However, the park is Fantastic!! Beautiful trees and walkways, really relaxing. Needs some coffee shops in the area. We had dinner at Ponds, great food but waiter was rude to the people at the next table.

    Friendly people in spite of inflation and still some great values. Beautiful geography and a wide variety of climates can be experienced on a single island. Downtown has been revitalized and there is even more nostalgia for the old Hawaiian buildings there since the Lahaina devastation on Maui.

    The beds are amazing - we slept really well despite being in a double bed. I love that there’s a fan and AC option. Location is perfect but you still need a car to get around. It suited us perfectly for 2 adults and 2 kids and was easy to go on tours from this location.

    Not a busy centre but certainly had enough features and options for us. Wonderful natural environment - as well as being within close proximity to sensational nature features. Preferred Hilo to Waikiki.

    Hilo is so different than other parts of Hawaii.

    Hilo is so different than other parts of Hawaii. It had an old-fashion-y feel to it. Older buildings in downtown and beautiful moss covered bridges. Gorgeous giant, old banyan trees and other beautiful trees and plants you dont get to see in other more popular locations. Has amazing waterfalls a short drive away and lots of farms that give the area a quaint feel.

    One can jaunt down hill into the Hilo waterfront, a little over a half hour. Maybe grab some coffee at the 7-11 at the half way point, or get some stronger stuff downtown. A quick Uber/Lyft ride to anywhere in town. Clean and well maintained. Quiet suburban setting. None of the rampant homeless shenanigans of downtown and bayfront hotel and home-stay locations... which I personally find fascinating but could use an occasional break from, as this location provides. It's got familiar "normie" appeal.

    Kawehi (pronounced Ka-vay-hee) provides to her guests the entire front portion of her well-located home in Hilo. It is amazing the amount of room, both inside and out, that you have access to compared to a normal hotel room. It includes a full kitchen, stocked with various complementary goodies, and an outdoor covered dining area, plus plenty of places just to lounge around in. And covered parking is included, which is a great feature in rainy Hilo. We enjoyed our stay very much.

    This is a well-located property, very reasonably priced hotel close to downtown Hilo and sights on the east side of the Big Island. At first glance it is daunting - needed to check other reviews when we first pulled up, because it looks so shoddy from the outside. But inside - wonderful carvings, beautiful garden, delightful staff! We had a rain forest outside our window which was delightful.

    The Hilo Hawaiian hotel had everything we needed for a great 3 night stay. We booked the cheapest room but it was still a big room with a good bed. We liked the bathroom setup, where the shower and toilet were separate from the basin. The air conditioner was a little noisy but it didn't affect our sleep. Heaps of free car parking, nice to not deal with a valet.

    The location was great. Close to local restaurants and parks. Parking was directly below the hotel with elevator that directly to the floors. The day we stayed in Hilo, it rained all day and appreciated the parking location. The lobby was clean and welcoming with a view directly to the ocean. Our room was clean and comfortable.

    beautiful suite in home near the ocean just north of Hilo. A great surfing beach a short walk away. Morning breakfast provided by host including Hawaiian fruit and Kona coffee couldn’t be better. Hot tub and swimming pool a wonderful plus. The host very friendly and helpful. We recommend this stay over hotel!

    My room was on the 3rd floor overlooking Hilo bay, the hotel pool, and Hilo Reeds bay park. The room had a mini kitchen in it, which most hotel rooms don't, and the room was super clean. Management allowed me a 1 day extension with no questions asked.
