Hilo Hotel Guide - Hotels with Spa in Hilo, Hawaii

"Lovely restored home. Very nice owner and sweet (I believe Japanese) lady prepared and cooked our breakfast. Lots of snacks and refreshments. We were allowed to use an area in the fridge. No amenities in room but, everything we would want or need was just outside our door. Would love to stay again!"

"It was a welcome surprise to find the strong emphasis on environmental responsibility at this hotel. The decor was modern and very pleasant, plants, gardens and fishponds to experience. Most of the roofs were covered with solar panels. Bicycles were available for use, and purified water was freely available.

The large, open living room with its picture window was a magnet for everyone to be together. The entire house is welcoming and gracious, the kitchen is well outfitted, and the dining room is large and comfortable. Everyone was happy to be together in this...

"We so enjoyed our stay here. It is an older home but well maintained, very comfortable bed and an amazing view from the large lanai/covered patio that has to be seen to be believed. The neighborhood is quiet which was perfect for us and the house has a well stocked kitchen. "
