Honolulu Hotel reviews

Brill, hotel don't listen to the bad ones!
10 / 10
May 2012, Shazzle_dazzle

Right I felt I had to write a review on this hotel as most of the stuff iv been reading is rubbish! I stayed here last year in July Infact I'm booked to go back here in 25 days for a girlie holiday I can't wait!!
If your wanting a clubbing holiday with music and fun then this is the hotel for you, it annoys me that people with young kids are moaning, if you didn't want a hotel with drinking and young people why come to magaluf one of the most famous places in the world for clubbing especially a hotel that is 2 mins from the strip? I fully understand a lot of you were sold this hotel from your agents back in the uk as a family holiday but that doesn't mean you have to try and put other people off!! Anyway the food was good the usual chips, burgers fish etc breakfast was nice with egg toast bacon etc you get what you pay for if you want caviar in a 5* hotel then pay a 5* price!! The nightlife is very close just a small walk awAy, the all inclusive bar was great included cocktails aswell a perfect way to get drunk before you hit the town, there are security guards patrolling the grounds all night so don't be too loud coming in or they will tell you to ssshhh lol
And people moaning about the size of the lifts....a lift is a lift it brings you up to your level what are you wanting a shower or something in the lift!?? Don't get it.....
The bar staff are nice if your nice to them...a few older people have said that they bar staff were rude well if you had the attitude with them that you have on this review site I can see why they were rude....if u have a laugh with them on your first day and get to know them there nice and will serve you quickly, around the pool is fun during the day loud music pool games and free bar!! Once again why would you bring your kids to magaluf anyway...yes you get guys streaking etc but we are young having a laugh a lot of people who were there last year had just finished uni so were letting there hair down before having to join reality so they deserve to be aloud to have a laugh! The water sports on the beach is Wikid cheap aswell and there is a bungy ball near the hotel that if you close your balcony doors you can't hear!
I'm heading back to this hotel in 25 days and I can't bloody wait I'm usually quite a fussy person but seriously this hotel is Wikid if you looking for a good time!! And if you are of the older generation and don't like this sort of thing or a couple that have young kids don't go to magaluf go to palma nova just outside from magaluf instead of staying in a club 18-30 hotel and then moaning about the noise! Gees!!

After reading views of hotel honolulu on here, we were scared of what we might find. BUT, it was amazing! We had SUCH a good time. Ok, so its not for everyone (families & the older sort) but it was clean, the food was nice ( yes you get chips every day, but other bits too). The swimming pool was very clean-washed and hosed by pedro ronaldhinio every night. The all inclusive bar was run efficiently. Staff were pleasant. Everything needed is nearby, shops, the beach, the strip. The only bad thing was the shower ran hot.cold.hot.cold, but have a bath instead :)
LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Never again
1 / 10
May 2010, Neveragain

Just returned today 2nd My from this hotel. NEVER AGAIN,
The place was full of stag and hen parties, boozing all day and night, fighting and assaulting the staff. We were never told it is a 18 to 30 type of place or a place for stag and hen parties. One group of 16 males lasted one night, they arrived on the Thursday afternoon and then began boozing, then they decided to have a scrap which resulted in one of the animals bleeding from an injury. He was putting his bloody hand all over, in both lifts and on the walls. The next day the rep called ameeting, which resulted in the civil gaurd being called for when a rep was assaulted, needless to say the young drunkard was led away in handcuffs and thew in the local jail
The food was terrible, the pool area was not very clean, the staff were very arrogant and not at all friendly, on barman was whisteling to get the attention of his next customer. !!! The rroms were basic, the air conditioning was broke, and the bedding, i'm still covered ion a rash from it.
The " ladies of the night " are in abundance at the entrance to the hotel plying their trade. Three people were robbed during our stay
Its an OK sort of a place for the boozy youngsters, hen and stag parties, for a married couple who want a relaxing holiday, STAY AWAY, no sleep during the night because of the drunk youngsters returning back and then continuing to party in their room.
Then the exploits of the previous night shouted proubdly around the pool area, disgusting, the females were far much worse as the males, !!

Stayed in the Honolulu from the 1st till 8th. Got there on Thursday afternoon dropped cases in and went for something to eat. The food was very poor, chips everyday me and my bf ended up eating out nearly everyday. Snacks were supposed to be on throughout the day and night but we never got any because the restaurant was always in darkness. Lots of people were complaining about the food and eating out. Found most staff quite nice although some were a bit ignorant. The all inclusive bar shut at 11.00pm and all entertainment finished. Entertainment consisted of bingo then a show that lasted for about 20 mins. Rooms were basic, few stains on the wall. Maids just barged in the rooms and never knocked to see if we were in the room. The hotel was in a good location for bars and shops but it was on top of a hill and i wouldnt recommend it for older people. The room was very noisy at night, lots of young people running round, slamming doors, chucking chairs and tables from their balconies. I enjoyed the holiday but i would not stay in this hotel ever again or reccommend it to anyone.

worst holiday ever
1 / 10
Oct 2009, erik

Myself, wife and 14 yr old daughter stayed at this hotel 22nd Sept until 3rd Oct 09, it has to rate as our worst holiday ever, standard and choice of food throughout the day was appalling, snacks at night were a couple of sandwiches behind the bar after 9.30pm, lots of guests eat out even though it was all inclusive.
Bar closed at 11.00pm sharp unlike any other hotels we have been to which usually closed at midnight, even the light on the pool table outside the bar turned off at 11.00pm.
Activities were a joke almost non existant 4 activities in a 10 day period for adults and none for kids. Entertainment at night was just as bad.
Room was a mess walls were very dirty and tiles missing, noise throughout the night with people running about the hotel at all hours was horrendous, we were never as glad for our coach picking us up to take us to the airport as were lots of other people.
Final word has to be the Rep :what a waste of space she was:, did not want to know unless she was getting commission for selling tours etc.

I'm an 18 year young girl! And This was my first time abroad as was my friend that I went with, I read the reviews before going (obviously) and admittedly was a bit worried because the people on here were a bit negative! Well when I pulled up in the coach I loved it! The hotel was clean and looked quite posh! We checked in, the safe box is quite expensive but if you split the money its not too bad. We were on the room, fourth floor and the view was beautiful! sea and the pool was so pretty! I loved it and waking up to that every morning was beautiful! The food is ok, but im quite a fussy eater, there is quite a selection though and the hotel is surrounded by places to eat! if your a fan of indian food go to poonam at the top next to poco loco! its gorgeous! the hotel staff are not rude, but then we never gave them a reason to be rude! the hotel could be noisy at times but i didnt always here it, once it got a bit bad but call down to reception and they sort it out :) the hill isn't too bad nor are the steps! most definately are not 200! Although i loved hotel honolulu i wouldnt recommend it if you want a quiet family hoilday, but some families did turn up while i was there and i think they got transfered. recommended to 18-30's nightlife is great and air con worked perfect in our room and the shower was perfect too! i would definately go back! Lots of activities to do during the day, definatley go to western water park and aqualand, hotel organises this, coach there etc :) Do not worry about the miserable moaners on here! It is lovely!

My stay at the Honolulu hotel

Hi,on reading some of the reviews on this hotel,I had to write my own as my wife and I had a great time at the Honolulu hotel,staff were courteous and helpful and smiling.The food was tasteful a good choice and plenty of it,all set out nicely in the restaurant and plenty of time to eat it.The room on the eight floor,had ample space and clean,towels changed on a daily basis,sheets changed once a week, great views on the balcony of Magaluf.The noise was down to a minimum as near the main strip,when double glazed doors closed heard nothing.Nice large swimming pool and area for sunbeds with bar and toilets not far away only complaint here was that some of the sunbeds were broken and had to sort the good beds from the bad however overall great by the pool.Evening entertainment,something different every night,singers, groups, bingo!, good vibes here,or just sit outside on the terrace's with a drink and "warm breeze" and chill out. Mostly groups of young women and men and older couples not many families staying here. The hill and steps are no problem to climb I'm 59!.The Honolulu Hotel was better than my expectation's and was pleasantly surprised,Yours Truly Alan.

Brillian Girlie Holiday
5 / 10
May 2009, Miss A Newe;;

Have just come back from a girlie holiday from Magaluf and it was wicked. The hotel was ok very basic, food was ok, i was very worried about going to this hotel after reading bad reviews. Yes it was noisey, yes some of the staff were rude but at the end of the day it is bed for the night and the thats it. If the noise goes on and on then call recpetion and they send up the security guard, has to do this a couple of times in the week but everything got sorted quickley.
Went to the western water park which was great altho very expesive, best advise is to take a packed lunch!!
The best bar we found on the beach was Robinson Creso, sold a pint of San Miguel in a frozen mug for 2.50Euro, views across the beach were lovely!! Food in the bar was great altho the portions were massive me and my sister shared a lunch and still came away full up!!
Would advise a trip to the house of katmandu, very weired and wakey with a wicked 4D cinema experience on site!
All in all was a great hoilday, close to Palma and Palma Nova was just a short walk along the beach.
Dont really know what people were complaining about the hotel, dont like it then go out as the 'Strip' was a 5 minute walk from the front door!!

Don't expect the ritz

Jan 2009, PedroM

Upon arriving at our hotel, we were greeted with 200 odd stairs and a road to get to the pool! finally trailing all the way up with the heavy suitcases the receptionist was Very rude and unfriendly demanding money up front for any "Damages" Our 1st night was horrible i was put in a 1 bedroom apartment after drawing the short straw and to my disbelif i was right next to the Cleanin cupboard and to be fair the cleaning cupboard was prob bigger than my room, to fit me and a suitcase in there was a serious squeeze, as Drink related accidents go, 1 off my friends smashed a mirror in the room only for them to be EVICTED!!! they ended up stayin with me, so this dingy cramped room now had 4 bodies and 4 suitcases to add to the fun, Fortunatley we were only there for the week as this was repulsive as the cleaner came 1ce within the 7days and didnt do a great job, on the last night of our stay 2 security guards came to our room, saying that we must pay for the damages or the police will come n "sort us out" Before speaking to one another in spanish, the charge for this mirror was 210 euros!! they claimed that we smashed a bed a mirror and the shower, for the whole 3 hours we were in there this was an impressive feat for anyone!!!!! after much arguments we decided we must pay as spanish Police and Guards seem to be pretty tight and we wudnt get much a say. then they had a good joke saying we cuda just paid the 1st night rather than be crammed in that small room! Hilarious i dont think
anyone considering this hotel as a place of stay PLEASE think again, the staff were bullies and got a kick out of it! DISGUSTING!!!

I have just returned from a weeks...
8 / 10
Sep 2008, magaluf 08

I have just returned from a weeks holiday in magaluf at the honolulu and had the best holiday ever. When me and my friend first arrived we were suprised to see the amount of steps leading up to the hotel and down to the pool, however because of being two 17 year old girls this didnt bother us. Unless you are 18 you are unable to purchase alcohol as you will not be given a blue band however the person on reception openly said "find friends and they buy it you", so we did. After the first day of being there we could see that the hotel was full of young people that wanted to be in the centre of magaluf for the night life so there for there were young people in big groups for both hen and stag parties being loud all day and all night so i agree this hotel is not suitable for families with young children. The food isnt up to much good so we found ourself eating little in the hotel and eating out but drinking before going out in the evening to save money! The staff in the restaurant aren't very friendly but for the amount of time you spend in there it didnt bother us to much! If you are on the 8th floor water power is to a minimum but it is usable if you dont mind not having a powerful shower for a week!
Overall i would recommend any young people looking to have a livly holiday to this hotel as it will cater to all your needs & you will be sure to meet lots of other young people!

to say that smoking is allowed in all...

Aug 2008, Mr J Charles

to say that smoking is allowed in all the bars and clubs, i was surprised that the entertainment lounge was non smoking. its about time the honolulu catered for smokers,as i lot of brits come to mallorca to escape the draconian ban in england. food-not much choice and very bland. every thing else is ok,as long as you come as couples or in a group.not suitable for families with children because of the noise.
