Lonely Planet review

The Sheraton's lobby resembles a subway station at rush hour. People are constantly coming and going and if you suddenly stop, the crowd might just whisk you away. But many rooms offer ocean views, and the supersized pool complex tricked out with water slides and an amphibious playground will delight the kids. Free Hawaiian cultural classes are offered almost daily.

While the massive 1695-room Sheraton Waikiki sits right on the beach, it seems oddly disjointed from the sand and surf; you'll probably prefer hanging out at nearby hotels' livelier oceanfront venues. The beach fronting the property is narrow, and you must walk toward the hotels on either side to find better spots. The Sheraton's street entrance is rather unpleasant, dominated by a large parking lot that's constantly busy since it's the tour-bus hub for all major companies. That said, you'll probably enjoy a room with a view here, as the hotel is a sweeping behemoth: over two-thirds of all rooms face the Pacific. Rooms are comfortable and it's unlikely you'll have any complaints about the cleanliness or generic tropical design. The hotel is extremely popular with Japanese tour groups; in the lobby.
