Shoppers might wear out their Manolos here; this renovated condo-hotel is connected to Oahu's biggest mall, the Ala Moana Shopping Center, by a pedestrian ramp, and it's a four-block stroll away from the Victoria Ward Centers. Business travelers can walk one block in the opposite direction to the Hawaii Convention Center. Swimmers, surfers, and beachgoers make the two-minute walk to Ala Moana Beach Park across the street. Rooms are like small, comfortable apartments, with cherrywood furnishings, a soothing blue color scheme, kitchenettes, flat-screen TVs, and balconies with outdoor seating. The recreation deck features a pool with cabanas and a bar, outdoor yoga and Pilates studios, and a fitness center. Pros: Adjacent to Ala Moana shopping center, rooms nicely appointed. Cons: Lobby feels a bit like an airport, beach across busy Ala Moana Boulevard.
