"An upgrade from the cramped standard rooms is worth it at this 125-room beachfront hotel in a mellow area a half-mile outside of Waikiki."

"For a little more privacy and seclusion, the New Otani offers well-kept, small rooms and its own beach about a half mile from the throbbing heart of Waikiki."

"Although the rooms at this boutique hotel are small, the fabulous location on Sans Souci Beach... more than makes up for them."
Rough Guide
"Intimate, Japanese-toned beachfront hotel half a mile east of central Waikiki."
Star Service
"An unusual offshoot from this usually business-centric chain, Waikiki’s New Otani boasts a breezy tropical backdrop and one of the best beachfront locations in Waikiki."

"Sleek and modern, this 1,700-room hotel towers over the prime location on the beach at Waikīkī – most of the rooms have spectacular ocean views."
Star Service
"This hotel may be ranked No. 2 in size behind the Hilton Hawaiian Village, but it is a bustling beehive of activity in an excellent location, and individuals and groups both big and small do well here."
