Hotel Details

Location

Located in the center of Waikiki, 3 minutes from the beach, within walking distance of shops and restaurants.
First Cabin sits in a prime Waikiki location, putting you steps from Waikiki Beach (3 min walk) and the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center. The area is packed with dining options, including Wolfgang's Steakhouse, Hula Grill, and Noi Thai Cuisine, all about a 3-minute walk away. Honolulu International Airport is 16 km away, a 20-30 minute taxi ride. Public transport and bus stops are also nearby, making it easy to explore without a car. The property occupies the 14th floor, offering ocean views from the common lounge.

Accommodation

Adults-only capsule hotel with private, air-conditioned cabins featuring a flat-screen TV and work desk.
Each cabin is a private, lockable space with a comfortable bed (semi-double in First Class for couples), air conditioning, heating, a flat-screen TV, and a work desk. All cabins include a private bathroom and free Wi-Fi. Upper-level bunks in Economy Class require climbing. The capsules offer more privacy than a traditional hostel dorm, but sound travels, so road-facing or open areas can be noisier. The property is adults-only, creating a quieter atmosphere suited for solo travelers and couples prioritizing location and value over luxury.

Wellness and Leisure

Unwind in the sauna or enjoy the shared lounge with ocean views and free coffee.
The hotel features a free sauna for relaxation after a day at the beach. The shared lounge offers comfortable seating, a TV, vending machines, and a kitchenette with a microwave and toaster. The lounge also provides a beautiful view of the ocean. Free coffee and tea are available. Nearby, across the street in the park, free activities like lei making and hula performances are offered.

Facilities and Services

Free Wi-Fi, 24-hour reception, luggage storage, lockers, and laundry services available.
The property provides free Wi-Fi in all areas, a 24-hour front desk with express check-in/out, and full-day security with CCTV. Luggage storage (free) and lockers are available for your bags before check-in and after check-out. Laundry services are available for an additional fee. A lift serves all floors. The communal area includes a shared lounge/TV area and vending machines for snacks and drinks. Safety deposit boxes are provided in each cabin.
