The DoubleTree Alana sits on Ala Moana Boulevard, not Kalakaua Avenue, and for a cruise morning that's the point. It has an outdoor pool, Trees Restaurant & Bar and the Hiking Hawaii Cafe, 0.30 miles from Waikiki Beach by Hilton's count, and it's about 2.4 miles from Pier 2 by road on our estimate.
The Daily Resort Charge carries $5 off Hui Car Share, two beach towels and 10% off the cafe — but Hilton doesn't print what the charge itself costs. Valet at $55 is the only parking, and breakfast is a buffet for a fee.
Fifteenth on 26, it trails the three hotels above it on the parking rate and the alphabet, not on anything you'd feel. Pets up to 50 lb are welcome, two at most, for $150.
Ask for the resort charge in dollars when you book, then take the cab straight down Ala Moana Boulevard.
