Not the place to stay if you want the conveniences of a "normal" hotel. No restaurant. Tiny bar. The rooms are small and decorated in an Asian design. Black and white, chrome, glass, mirrors and stone. It had a "very cold" atmosphere. The only good thing was that it was 50 yards from the beach. A definite "do not stay"... more

We stayed at Hotel Renew in mid-August. When we checked in we were given a room on the 3rd floor where you could hear all of the noise from the very busy street below. As I wanted to get good sleep and relax on my honeymoon trip, I didn't want any noise. We called the front desk asking for room... more

We were able to book the first 5 nights of our honeymoon at Hotel Renew for half price! By the time we got there, renovations were almost done- no visible signs, but we heard a few bangs of a hammer lat one afternoon. Didn't bother us at all! The room was gorgeous- modern Asian design, so clean and perfect! Dimmer... more

The four of us (husband and 2 teenage boys) recommend Hotel Renew unequivocally. Upon arrival, we were greeted with cool washcloths scented with lemongrass (which I placed on my sunburned shoulders for 2 hours!), and a cold glass of pineapple juice. Check in was a breeze. Our room appeared just as in the pictures. Modern, minimalist, comfortable (1st Hawaii project... more

My husband and I stayed at Hotel Renew in Feb. 2008. We selected this hotel based on the reviews we read from Trip Advisor. I have to say we were disappointed after hearing so many wonderful things. Our room was quite small. The bed took up most of the space. We had our golf clubs with us which we kept... more

Hotel Renew finished renovating the property about a month prior to our stay. It's a no-frills property - the rooms are nice and have a contemporary flair. We ended up staying in two different rooms during the week because we left to visit Maui and then came back prior going home. The rooms are pretty much as the website shows... more

We booked this hotel last minute based on the trip advisor reviews and picked up a great deal on the hotels website. we arrived about 8pm after a long day of flying and we were greeted by friendly faces at the reception who gave us juice and hand towels while we waited to be checked in. the staff at the... more

Hotel Renew is absolutely brilliant. It's not the biggest, it's not on the beach, but it doesn't surprise me that it's #1. From the staff to the little decor touches to the afternoon cocktails that are so intimate you almost feel as if you're at a friendly house party, every detail excels. The staff knows where to direct guests to... more

OUTSTANDING !!!!! I just finished staying at the Hotel Renew with my family (wife and young son-age 7). I have been a frequent visitor to Hawaii and Waikiki Beach in general, and I must admit that this is ONE OF THE BEST HOTELS in Waikiki. A true treasure. The staff are extremely cordial and helpful. I initially stayed there for... more
