Location

Very friendly staff, great hospitality, very helpful, and very cheerful.
14.01.2026 Melina
Room was spotless and had more than what was needed for a family of 5. Staff and service were friendly and always available for anything needed. I'll plan future Oahu trips to HHV!
11.01.2026 Mark
Love the spacious rooms and wonderful staff. Would definitely be coming back!
07.01.2026 Guest
The sofa bed was missing a comforter and pillow, which I noticed when I was trying to set it up at night. I contacted them via text message and they sent it to me, but it took more than 30 minutes. I wish they had prepared it properly.
26.12.2025 Pawanpreet
On the beach location, great service, clean rooms, many pools, on property parking with easy in and out.
26.12.2025 Pradeep
Property layout is very confusing and no clear sign boards. Balcony was very noisy due to air duct exhaust, parking was terrible, it was very far and expensive. Kitchen was very good and house keeping services were excellent. Hillton Grand Islander is very far from the beach almost 10-12 mins walk.
22.12.2025 Eda
Clean room.
Friendly & helpful front desk agent, Rosalinda.
Although beach is not as good as in Waikiki, full of rocks.
21.11.2025 Melissa
Our suite was spacious, clean, and had a beautiful view. The staff from check-in to housekeeping were kind, courteous, and attentive.
12.11.2025 Cqrolyn
Kitchen fully equipped, but dated. Presented mold around facet and backsplash. Rooms dated and carpet need replaced.
06.11.2025 Leasha
The room was clean. Staff was responsive when we had an issue with one of the televisions. The ocean view was as expected (in a good way).

Gulab jamun was not fresh. Quantity per serving is low. They seem to be running low on staff. We had to wait about 30 minutes and and when finally asked, we realized that they actually forgot about our order.
21.12.2017 Uma
Visited for dinner. It’s pricey, service and food isn’t worth it. Please note, they charge 18 percent gratuity as a default on your check.
19.11.2017 Pranav
Good ambience, great service and located conveniently in heart of Waikiki. Food is decent.
17.11.2017 Michelle
Best Indian restaurant I've been in hawaii! The curry and naan was really really good!
11.11.2017 Jennifer
We visit Bombay Palace about twice a month. I always get a vegetarian option while my husband goes for the meat, lamb is his favorite and he is English so he knows his curry. This is our favorite Indian restaurant on the island.
Service is good and you almost always get seated right away.
My only issue is that the spice level sometimes is low, we like medium and it occasionally comes mild instead. Either way it is always tasty. Highly recommended.
Plus parking in the garage is only $1 with validation.

Very disappointing, grilled shrimps was still cold inside and not grilled at all. Both salads, caprese and cole slaw must have been prepared in bulk, mushy and tasteless. Fries not crispy and also mushy.

The lobster tail, although mildly grilled was fantastic, soft and tasty.

Service was indifferent and slow
30.12.2017 erika
Maybe this was an off night or we got the wrong server, I took my son's out for dinner. The waiter continuously addressed my 14 year old son instead of me, maybe I look younger than I am or my son looks mature for his age but it was irritating. Our food was also very delayed but the manager adressed that which was great and she acknowledged me instead of my children... I chalk it up to an off night.
17.12.2017 Samantha
Good service. The drinks were good. Had an old fashioned and one of those tall fruity icy drinks. We went for the 4 course $20 meal set. It was good and filling. Shrimp was food perfectly. Enjoyed the chowder and salad. Dessert was a nice treat to bring home for later & of course we brought home some biscuits!
23.10.2017 Emmalee
Close to Hilton Hawaii village. Seated straight away. Extensive menu. Generous portion sizes. Child/toddler friendly. Really good service. Will be back.
01.10.2017 Larry
The waiter that we had was awesome. I can't remember her name, but just look for the tallest person there. She was very nice to our daughter and she had a great personality.
