Beautifully recently updated former oldest hotel in Hilo. Great value, superb customer service, spare but very nicely minimally decorated king room with local woodwork and wall art, gorgeous entryway and lobby area, free coffee and tea 24/7, beautiful pool. Yes, some airport noise and parking on street or in free lot around the corner. But we will definitely stay here again when we return to Hilo in 2027.

We stayed in the attached unit with one queen bed. We got in late, but the manager was very accommodating. The bed was super comfy, and the room was spacious and clean. The furniture was beautiful, sturdy, and purposeful. We loved how the beach was only a minute walk away, which was a great place to go for a dip at the end of a hot day. Make friends with your neighbors as you are in close proximity to each other and share the kitchen and laundry facilities. There are no beach views, but the location is great, and it's easy to navigate your way around, and it's not far from the airport. We'll definitely be back again.

Location and price were incredible. We were on the second floor, so not having an elevator was no big deal. The sound of the ocean waves crashing was a great way to wake up. With the ocean breeze, the A/C was definitely not necessary. Close to tons of great restaurants and coffee shops. Wifi was slow in the mornings but still worked, and worked great at night. It worked in our room just fine. We didn't need to; the lobby staff was incredible; the rooms were clean and comfortable.

We were late checking in and the front desk person waited for us to check in. Quaint, sleepy and quiet area near the hustle and bustle was fine for us- we slept well.

Orchid tree is exceptionally beautiful, totally solar powered with a beautiful pool, hot tub and landscaping, a large lanai for relaxing and the room is truly large with lounge able furniture , pristine clean. Many places we’ve stayed give you pictures that don’t really represent the place when you arrive. However orchid tree is wonderful as are the hosts, both friendly and responsive ! Breakfast was just fine with fresh fruit, yogurt, granola and a good selection of Juices , breads, cream cheese, etc as well as freshly ground coffee. (Plenty for us but if you are an egg type there’s always places in town). But the lanai, the waves crashing, the superb coffee, we didn’t need more!

Amazing place run by lovely people. Owners have poured their heart and soul into this property. So much attention to detail. So spacious; loved all the timber and the handcrafting and decorating, the koi fishpond under the entry floor; each room has a different theme. Super comfy bed, and huge bathroom. Massive kitchen and loungeroom on each floor, with everything you need in a kitchen. They even have some snorkel gear you can borrow, which we did. Stunning views from the lanai and lounge area, and it's an easy drive from the town. I highly recommend this place and I would come back again. It really is 10/10.

    I LOVE Hilo!!! It still holds "The Essence of Hawaii."

    I LOVE Hilo!!! It still holds "The Essence of Hawaii." It is not overrun with tall modern buildings, and "Tacky Tourist Attractions." It maintains an Old Hawaii Charm. You're not overwhelmed with street performers and aggressive sales people trying to pull you into their cosmetics stores. Yet there are still some homeless people there which is not good. However, I feel very safe in Hilo. There are nearby beautiful gardens and great beaches! Hilo is surrounded by so much natural beauty. There are some great restaurants there as well. I really like all of them, and I make sure to have at least one dinner at Hilo Bay Cafe. I also always make sure to visit the Imiloa Astronomy Center by UH Hilo. It is an excellent place to learn about the history & culture of Hawaii. And their planetarium has amazing presentations!

    Has the atmosphere of old Hawaii in the downtown, but it also has new and intriguing areas such as the University of Hawaii at Hilo and it's astronomy center. It also has access to Volcanoes National Park, which is an iconic park and sometimes volcanic eruptions to observe. It also has an extremely extensive farmers market with whole range of tropical fruits and vegetables.

    The Hilo area is the wet side of the island but our 7 night stay resulted in late evening showers and only 1 semi-rainy day in mid-March. We were lucky. Hilo is old, funky, has a great Farmers' Market, and wonderful scenery. People are friendly and nice. Streets are clean and the flora lovely! As many folks say, it's Hawaii before tourists have overrun it and developers have built fancy hotels.

    Don’t go to Hilo the first part of the month when all the retired and subsidized locals are cashing their government checks. Stores and restaurants are mobbed. Love the local waterfalls and Liliuokalani Gardens. There was a lot of traffic!

    Hilo is green, walkable, laid-back, mostly attractive and has a lot of character, although some areas are in disrepair with closed shops. If you prefer grand hotels, sunnier weather, commercial tourism and private beaches, stay on the Kona side of the island. Hilo is island-style, and surrounded by waterfalls, botanical gardens and lush coasts with shorter drives to attractive spots. Great snorkeling at Carl Smith and Richardson Ocean Park.

    Hilo is real Hawai'i, not a resort town.

    Hilo is real Hawai'i, not a resort town. There are no white sandy beaches like the Kona side, although there are beaches, they are usually black rock beaches. The food scene is excellent however where most of your restaurants are locally owned and have all different types of food. Hilo is on the Windward side of Hawai'i Island so be prepared for rain. It's why it's so green there! Take a chance and experience Hawai'i Island like the Locals do. Respect the Locals and the place they call home.
