Recently redesigned and renovated, especially for the 20s to 30s crowds, this "hidden" hotel offers lots of bonuses: terrifically located, just 100 yards from the beach, it's managed and run by the ultra-luxury Halekulani Hotel (but comes at a more reasonable price). The compact, beautifully appointed rooms underwent complete renovation in 2006 with new, modern, contemporary, Hawaiian-Zen décor. Rooms are more spacious, and wired Internet access was installed (the thick concrete walls, plus the density of Waikiki buildings, make wireless reception practically impossible). All rooms have lanais with either ocean, mountain, or city view. Nice extras include adjustable floor-to-ceiling shutters for those who want to sleep in. The Parc features the same level of service that has made the Halekulani famous and offers two excellent restaurants, one of which, Nobu Waikiki, is scheduled to open as we go to press.
