Waikiki Biltmore stood as a jewel of postwar Honolulu hospitality, opening in 1955 directly on Waikiki Beach. Before the high-rises transformed the shoreline, it represented a more gracious era of Hawaiian tourism. Travelers came not just for the sand, but for the kind of elegance that only a grand hotel could offer. Part of our Retro Hotel collection, featuring the iconic locations of yesteryear.
