Holiday Inn Express Waikiki

Holiday Inn Express Waikiki is an IHG hotel at 2058 Kuhio Avenue in Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii, near the Ala Moana end of Waikiki. The location is on the western side of the Kuhio Avenue corridor, a short walk from Waikiki Beach, Fort DeRussy Beach Park, Waikiki Beach Walk and the Royal Hawaiian Center, and about a 15 minute walk to the center of Kalakaua Avenue's shops. Ala Moana Center is a short bus ride or drive west, and local bus stops along Kuhio Avenue connect to downtown Honolulu. The airport is roughly 20 to 30 minutes away by car depending on traffic. As an Express brand hotel, it offers simple, practical rooms with work areas and a focus on value, and room types typically include standard rooms with one or two beds and some larger units for families. The hotel generally provides a simple breakfast area rather than a full-service restaurant, though visitors should confirm current breakfast inclusion before booking. A fitness center and guest services are available, and the staff can help with activities and transport. The service character is straightforward and budget-conscious, suited to travelers who plan to spend most of the day out and about. Rates range from about $180 to $330 per night, among the lower rates for the area, although a resort fee and paid parking commonly apply in Waikiki. The surrounding Kuhio Avenue stretch has numerous restaurants, convenience stores and shops. Because the hotel is a walk from the beach rather than on it, it suits visitors prioritizing value and a central base. Visitors should check the IHG website for current offers and fees. Visitors can reach Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head and Hanauma Bay by organized tour, bus or rental car, and the hotel's position near Ala Moana makes it a convenient base for shopping trips to the Ala Moana Center and dining in Kakaako.
