"Waikiki Beach's longstanding Pacific Beach Hotel made waves in 2018 when it unveiled a $125 million renovation and rebrand into the 'Alohilani. You may need to catch your breath when you step into the stunning, light-filled lobby, which is utterly serene compared to the busy streets of Honolulu. In addition to the soaring ceilings, there are Hawaiian artifacts on display, a gorgeous coral sculpture behind the check-in desk, and best of all, an enormous two-story "oceanarium" at the heart of the hotel filled with tropical fish. The newly renovated rooms, most of which come with at least partial ocean views, have a similarly clean aesthetic and plenty of light. Reclaimed wood headboards and accents throughout the room have a beach feel, and modern updates like bedside USB ports are a welcome touch. If you're looking for a way to kill time before a meal at Iron Chef Masuhiro Morimoto's Morimoto Asia, make sure to check out the oceanarium at 2:30 p.m. (and 10:30 a.m.) every day, when a SCUBA diver drops in to feeds the fishes." - Jessica Sulima
