Top Imiloa Astronomy Center Hotel Reviews

Grand Naniloa Hotel Hilo - a Doubletree by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were very comfortable and the staff friendly. I’d recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Hilo. The view of Hilo bay was spectacular !"

Hilltop Vacation Rental

10/10 Excellent

"Gracious Host, great location, comfortable bed, Clean set-up. Quiet neighborhood. Highly recommend."

SCP Hilo Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff is great, room was clean and they have access to a laundry room. There are fees for the laundry room, but it can be very convenient. The best part of this hotel is how nice the staff is and how welcoming they are."

Hilo Home Base - 3 Miles to State Park & Beach!

8/10 Good

"Property is a great location and home has alot of amenities you might need on a vacation."

Hale Kawehi B&B Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"This was an amazing house, with about 4-5 rooms all to ourselves. There was full kitchen and cooking facilities, and some snacks and cooking materials (milk, sauces, etc) had been left for us to use. Each room was an Aladdin's cave of souvenirs and oddities, attached to the wall or ceiling. There was an amazing little garden, with a pond, which had some very noisy frogs in it. There was veranda and porch, so we could sit outside and have a drink. It was like living in a hobbit house or something out of a fairy tale, and made the experience truly magical. Shops were a 20min walk or 5min drive away, but once shopping was done there was a huge fridge to store it all in. All mod cons were there, TV, aircon (in the bedroom), shower, wifi, etc. There was even a cheap laundry service with 24h return. It also had a free covered off-road parking space. If you want somewhere to stay that is truly memorable, stay here. It beats a boring hotel any day!"
