Deals at Trump Waikiki
I got an e-mail from Hawaiian Air offering "4 nights of accommodations plus a roundtrip flight with our award-winning service from just $756*." Travel: Now–June 15, 2010
Book: Now–February 10, 2010. I didn't plug in any dates or cities but I thought I would share. I looked at some reviews on TA and they were pretty good for a hotel that just opened. It isn't beach front but it sits right behind Fort DeRussy. Maybe I will take one for the team and check it out so I can do a trip report! |
I am really disappointed with HA as it relates to this advertisement. The $756 is from Seattle only and even then I could not find dates that $756 applied. Any city with one flight daily will be much higher, circa $400-$500 higher.
In my book this is as close to misleading as one can get. I like the airline, hate this ad. Bill |
Trump Tower is a plague on the land, no way would I be interested in staying there.
|
Aren't 99% of resorts plagues upon the land. What make Trump different?
|
It's uglier ;-)

Seriously, I stay at budget hotels, and like to try and find those that still have a little of the aloha spirit and "old Hawaii" hanging on. I realize the Vegas-like development going on around Lewers Street/BeachWalk in Waikiki is considered a good thing by many (most?) people. But I'm sad to see the little "funky" spots get wiped out along the way.
Staying in a modern glass high-rise is just not my idea of an island vacation. I know I may be alone in this thinking. |
Suze, I don't recommend you stay at the Hilton on Hawaii if you go there. It has no feeling of Hawaii.
|
Thanks for the tip, but no worries, I can't afford a Hilton.
The Old Moana Surfrider or Royal Hawaiian hotels would be more my idea of a splurge. |
The Moana is my favorite hotel anywhere! However after getting some really awful rooms in the original building we now stay in the tower.
I looked at the special and it was sent with my HA member #. I looked at some dates in March for 6 nights and it was about $1150. |
I should have said from LAX
|
Darn. I got that email from Hawaiian Air but deleted it when I saw the hotel. Wish I'd kept it so I could see what really came up for the price from here in Seattle.
|
I checked seattle, the cheapest I found was about $882. Depending on the dates, I got different prices. I never found a four day block for the $756 price.
