Hotel La Croix
The HawaiiGuide Read: A small independent where Kalākaua enters Waikīkī, near the Ala Wai end of the strip. Around 4.0 across more than 2,500 reviews sits below the island median — mid-pack for these quieter western blocks.
Best for: travelers who want a simple, pet-friendly base and don't mind the walk east to the main beach stretch. Skip it if: you're picturing the postcard Waikīkī out your window — the heart of the strip is a long walk down the avenue.
Our read: a fair score at a fair address. Treat it as a base, not a destination, and it does its job. Context: our Waikīkī area guide.
How we write these: we look at the performance data across the whole spectrum of Hawaii properties — guest ratings, review patterns, location, value — and tell you our honest findings. Some booking links earn us a commission at no cost to you; the read itself isn't for sale.
