Hotels near Hilo International Airport, Hilo

For only one night, we booked a room with breakfast, breakfast has two packages to choose from, depending on personal preference. Hotel facilities are slightly old, and the room and bathroom are slightly cramped. The surrounding environment is OK.

Hilton brand used to be my hotel of choice. After some very disappointing stays toward the end of Covid I decided I was switching to anything but Hilton. I should have stuck with my commitment. As the previous poster said our room ($350) was very small. The corridors were old and dingy. When I walked into the room I went to look out the window and there was a view of a rooftop, a large dumpster of trash and a delapidated building with graffiti. In fact there are several abandoned buildings surrounding the property so the area isn’t great. They still don’t have daily housekeeping. I have been in Hawaii for 10-days now and my other hotels all had daily cleaning and it was excellent. There is no excuse for Hilton to not being this service back. That is a key reason people like to stay at hotels vs VRBOs. Hilton is putting the savings in their own pocket as their rates haven’t been adjust to reflect the significant reduction in service. Luckily we are only staying one night. The checkin was nice and the agent was friendly. The grounds (toward the water) were nice. I also agree with the other poster as I question why a resort fee at this property. If you get an ocean view room and don’t mind the lack of maid service then you should be ok. Definitely don’t stay in the odd numbered rooms in the ancillary building or you will view the ghetto.

The hotel is in a great location, next to the Japanese Garden, and the Coconut Island with sea views is right in front of you. Parking is free. The hotel's western restaurant, the steak and lobster are super delicious, and the price-performance ratio is also very high. Great 👍Car rental and return point, I didn't expect it to be right across from the boarding gate of Hilo Airport, super convenient 🤩

Accommodation on the Big Island of Hawaii is very expensive. It is difficult to find a good and cheap hotel near the Volcano National Park. The only choice is the B&B. Do not think that the B&B is a single-family villa. This is not a home in Australia or Hawaii. Very expensive, the price you see, you can only rent a room in the villa, the kitchen and living room are to be shared with others. This lodge is less than a hundred years old. It is difficult to find. The place to check in is not together with the lodge, and you must see the check-in time. If you miss it, people will get off work. The staff will give you a map, clear. Tell you where the hut is, or give him the navigation directly. He will help you enter the coordinates, which is easy to find. The hut is about 1 km from the studio and drives very fast. The car can be parked in the open space at the door, the cabin is very clean, the living room is heated and the ceiling fan is on. It seems that the temperature difference between the mountains and the forest is very high. There is also a Chinese family who stays together. It’s just that everyone can chat and not feel restrained. The room is not big, the toiletries in the bathroom are very complete. Fortunately, the upstairs room is on our family. No one shared the bathroom. I have already said that this house has been said for a hundred years. It can be kept like this. It is already very good. There are supermarkets and restaurants nearby, you have to drive out, the price of the supermarket is a bit high, it is better to solve the dinner directly in the restaurant, breakfast can be bought in the supermarket, so the kitchen of the wooden house is useless. When you check out, just throw the key directly into the door mailbox and someone will clean it.

I spent three nights in the Volcano Hale in May, for some hiking and general touristing in the Natl. Park.. I was extremely happy in Volcano Hale! It is a large house, built 1912 and very well kept. There are 5 guest rooms, three full bathrooms, a kitchen with stove, microwave, fridge/freezer and some pots/pants/plates/cups etc. and a very large common area. All is shared (not the rooms of course) and all is very nice and clean. Nicely decorated, too (the piano is only decorative which may be for the better :)). I was in room 311, at the top floor and the view through the windows into the rainforest is spectacular This is all no-contact and it worked well. Instructions were sent in time and easy to follow. Some tips: 1) I came from the Kona coast and was surprised how cool, no, cold it was in the rainforest! I was quite cold the first night. I emailed the owners (management?) the next morning and they told me where to find another blanket, and also how to use the heater in the room. I had seen it but did not want to use it without explicit permission. After that, the next two nights were great. 2) Food: The bad news: Avoid the Kilauea General Store! I paid $10.- for a loaf (16oz) of standard sliced bread, and another $10.- for a small piece (8oz) of Kraft cheese. Either of them would have been $1.50 in a regular supermarket which of course does not exist up there. I noticed that the store does not have any price tags on their merchandise. Now you know why! The good news: Just go Thai all the way! There are 3 Thai places in Volcano Village. One is a sit-down restaurant (Thai Thai) where I got dinner the first night. Excellent food (I lived many years in So Cal and believe that I know a little about Thai restaurants) and a fair price: less than $30.- for a portion that would be enough for two, or in my case for dinner and breakfast the next morning. The other two are food trucks. I went to Tuk Tuk Thai food truck, at the end of Old Volcano Drive, and it was so good I went back the next day (my last). Excellent quality again, very friendly, and about half the price. Didn't have a chance to try the other food truck. I will for sure go back to Volcano Hale the next time I'll be in the area!

It should be said that it is a homestay. At the end of a small road on the right of the post office, there is a large yard with free parking. The lady who received us was very enthusiastic and made breakfast for us every day. Basically, we had breakfast at 8 o'clock in the morning when we checked in Only to see her, friends who came late can check in by themselves as long as they read the name of the person who made the reservation on the door of the room. Papaya for breakfast is delicious. Very close to the Volcano Park, 10 minutes by car. There is a good Thai food around the hotel. On the first night, the starry sky we saw in the courtyard of the hotel was not as good as that on the top of the stargazing mountain, so there is no need to come back so late. Hahahaha The price/performance ratio of this hotel is quite high. This area is still a bit cold at night. We bought a car ticket for 30 dollars to go to Volcano Park. You can still enter and leave by ticket the next day. It is a pity that many landscapes in the Volcano Park are closed now, so I can't see it anymore.
