Likes - free parking and air conditioned room. The guest room was overall clean, and the bedding was immaculate--no brown stains or hairs. Lots of hot water!
Dislikes - A $10.76 + tax charge on internet connection in the guest room! This is for a 24 hours service, and my stay for 2 nights costed me over $20.00! I found hair in the ice pail and ...

Stayed there for 5 days in Dec. '08. Nice room, yeah dated, but geez, anybody have any appreciation of history. Hilo is an old town and I love the place. It's realllll-It is Hawaii. Food at the hotel is very mediocre-eat somewhere else-lot's of choices- ask the locals. View from an ocean room is tremendous. Interesting crowd at night in ...

I just got back from Hawaii, and I don't recommend staying at this hotel. The reason I say this is because my backpack was stolen out of my room which contained all of my valuables. The hotel manager wasn't very friendly when I reported the issue and didn't seem to want to help me find it. Luckily the local HPD was called in, and Office ...

PEOPLE WERE FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL, ROOM WAS CLEAN AND VIEW WAS TERRIFIC....DID NOT EAT AT HOTEL---ATE OUT WHILE TRAVELING--- GREAT PLACE TO STAY WHILE EXPLORING THE REST OF THE ISLAND.....

Good location on the sea with a nice little island garden. Lots of old Banyan trees. No accessible beaches nearby, but this whole part of the island is pretty rocky. Pool was too cold to use.

Close to shopping and other small restaurants and bars.

Restaurant was OK, pretty well-stocked breakfast buffet, although kind of pricey. They provided ...

Convenient location to everything in Hilo. The building is old, and very dated decor. But the service is good, and the beach view lanais (balconies) are awesome. The A/C unit in our room leaked, but the service tech came right away when we called. The restaurant has decent food, but is a little on the pricey side. Hopefully there will be some updating in the near future. All in all, a great location, and we would stay there again.

Me and my sister went to the main island for 2 days we wanted to stay at the Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel because my sister had stayed there before and said it was very nice. I went to diffrent sites to rent a room every site said they only had a few rooms at the price of $75 left we decided to risk it and see if we could just walk in and get a room. ...

Just got back from a 5 night stay at the Hilo Hawaiian and it was great! We had an ocean view room on the top floor and it was worth every penny. Quiet, relaxing and the view was spectacular. The staff was friendly, the pool was super clean and the room was spacious and comfortable.
Just one WARNING: don't leave the sliding (glass) door open ...

Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel is a great place to stay. Could not ask for a better staff. The rooms were exceptional with staff coming in to clean every day.
The view looking out onto the ocean was awesome. I would definitely go back for that. I have already recommended it to several people who have mentioned going to Hawaii.
The experience was ...
