The Hilo Hawaiian Hotel located in Hilo, Hawaii's second largest town, is one of a few relatively large hotels on the east coast of Hawaii Island. It is located, like the Grand Naniloa Hotel, on Banyan Drive.

Overview

The Hilo Hawaiian Hotel opened in 1975 on Banyan Drive in Hilo. It has undergone several refurbishments since, with the most recent renovations being a full renovation in 1993, and a $6.5 million upgrade in 2014. The present owner of the hotel is Castle Hotels & Resorts which owns resort hotels in Hawaii and New Zealand.
The hotel has one building, eight-storey high. The main dining area, Queen's Court, is located on the lobby floor. There is also a Japanese restaurant "Hakone" in the hotel.
From the rooms with ocean view, Hilo Bay spreads out in front, with the majestic view of Mauna Kea in the distance. The pedestrian bridge to Coconut Island in the bay is adjacent to this hotel.
