Location and price were incredible. We were on the second floor, so not having an elevator was no big deal. The sound of the ocean waves crashing was a great way to wake up. With the ocean breeze, the A/C was definitely not necessary. Close to tons of great restaurants and coffee shops. Wifi was slow in the mornings but still worked, and worked great at night. It worked in our room just fine. We didn't need to; the lobby staff was incredible; the rooms were clean and comfortable.

The hotel is exceptional. I really enjoyed my time here. The staff are amazing people. They really care about making your stay as amazing as they can. You get complimentary kombutcha with your stay. The rooms are clean and very neatly maintained. The location is also amazing. Its a little bit away from town so its quiet and calm. The area around the hotel is great in terms of scenic viewing. You can snorkel in the water and see some turtles. The japanese garden is a beautiful 20 minutes walk from it.

The property is a short drive out of the old town but walking distance to the beach. The room was beautifully decorated, extremely clean and comfortable. The gardens surrounding the accommodation were beautiful. Breakfast was available each morning on the back patio and included cereal, yoghurt, bagels, fresh papaya and tea and coffee. Su and Steve were very welcoming and friendly with suggestions of things to do. We arrived from Volcano with ash and pele's hair on our car. Su very kindly hosed down our car. We would not hesitate to recommend Orchid Tree to anyone coming to Hilo.

Brian and his wife were amazing hosts providing us with lots of ideas and tips re what to do. Breakfast was amazing (can basically have anything you’d like!), provided a beautiful fruit plate, juice, tea/coffee. The macadamia and coconut pancakes were amazing. Everything is there for you for a great stay - beach towels, binoculars and headlamps for visiting the volcano, umbrellas, boogie boards, snacks, fresh fruit… you name it - nothing is a problem!

Amazing place run by lovely people. Owners have poured their heart and soul into this property. So much attention to detail. So spacious; loved all the timber and the handcrafting and decorating, the koi fishpond under the entry floor; each room has a different theme. Super comfy bed, and huge bathroom. Massive kitchen and loungeroom on each floor, with everything you need in a kitchen. They even have some snorkel gear you can borrow, which we did. Stunning views from the lanai and lounge area, and it's an easy drive from the town. I highly recommend this place and I would come back again. It really is 10/10.

hotel was very nice and somewhat quiet. stay away from rooms in front of pool. too noisy. no coffemaker in the room!!! none of the rooms. weak coffee available for free in the lobby. super small TV in the room, i think it was a 22". good location overall and clean. expensive restaurant on site. we explored quite a bit and found much better. staff was courteous. property backs up to major street in rear so avoid those rooms. you literally can hear trucks hit potholes and hit the brakes. would stay again but probably find something better for the same price and quieter

Hilo is a nice town with plenty to do and the location to Hawai'i Volcanos National Park and Mauna Kea are great. The downtown area is nice to stroll around with plenty of restaurants, etc. Getting around Hilo was easy. Banyon drive along the park is a nice walk to the Japanese garden. Check the restaurant closing times as some close early than you may expect (around 8:00 to 9:00) but there are some that are open later which is nice if you've spent long day hiking or exploring and get back later. A couple closed earlier than their stated time so check before going

We went on a ghost tour to learn about the history of Hilo - and so many wonderful myths and legends and ghosts stories in the center of town! We loved the outdoor things we could do - from lava tubes, to volcanoes, to great views of waterfalls. The people we met were very friendly. The food EVERYWHERE was excellent (and we looked/tasted everything local). We wanted to go to the observatories, but our car rental was not an off-road vehicle, so we couldn't go on the roads to the top. The parking to the touristy part of center of town was very convenient. Kona was only a 2hr drive away, but we liked Hilo better, since it was friendlier and less crowded.

I LOVE Hilo!!! It still holds "The Essence of Hawaii."

I LOVE Hilo!!! It still holds "The Essence of Hawaii." It is not overrun with tall modern buildings, and "Tacky Tourist Attractions." It maintains an Old Hawaii Charm. You're not overwhelmed with street performers and aggressive sales people trying to pull you into their cosmetics stores. Yet there are still some homeless people there which is not good. However, I feel very safe in Hilo. There are nearby beautiful gardens and great beaches! Hilo is surrounded by so much natural beauty. There are some great restaurants there as well. I really like all of them, and I make sure to have at least one dinner at Hilo Bay Cafe. I also always make sure to visit the Imiloa Astronomy Center by UH Hilo. It is an excellent place to learn about the history & culture of Hawaii. And their planetarium has amazing presentations!

Has the atmosphere of old Hawaii in the downtown, but it also has new and intriguing areas such as the University of Hawaii at Hilo and it's astronomy center. It also has access to Volcanoes National Park, which is an iconic park and sometimes volcanic eruptions to observe. It also has an extremely extensive farmers market with whole range of tropical fruits and vegetables.

The Hilo area is the wet side of the island but our 7 night stay resulted in late evening showers and only 1 semi-rainy day in mid-March. We were lucky. Hilo is old, funky, has a great Farmers' Market, and wonderful scenery. People are friendly and nice. Streets are clean and the flora lovely! As many folks say, it's Hawaii before tourists have overrun it and developers have built fancy hotels.

The house is very clean and beautiful, very cozy! The kichen is big and brand new, all the cooking staff are so clean!!!! You can feel that the owner tries hard to accommodate the guests well. The loacation is excellent, It is only 2.8 miles from Hilo airport, less tnan 10 minutes drive. Walmart is just around the corner and some other supermarks and some local stores. we are very lucky to find such a nice place to stay to visit hawaii . Thanks and salute to the owner!
