The Hilo Reeds Bay Hotel offers a comfortable and affordable stay for those exploring the Hilo area. While the hotel is older and may not have all the modern amenities, it provides a clean and cozy environment for guests. The rooms are described as plain but with comfortable beds, and the hotel staff is praised for their kindness and accommodating nature. The hotel's location is a highlight, with amazing views and easy access to attractions like the Volcano National Park, which is just a 45-minute drive away. Despite some minor drawbacks, such as the lack of an elevator and occasional TV service issues, the Hilo Reeds Bay Hotel is a great choice for travelers looking for a simple and budget-friendly place to stay while exploring the Hilo region.
The facilities were well maintained, the rooms were clean, and the beds were comfortable. As an added bonus, there were sea turtles just across the property in the waters. We will certainly return next time we are in the area.

This was a great hotel for our family. The rooms were small but comfortable enough for our family of 5. They had lots of perks (board games, paddle boards, bikes, etc.). Our kids LOVED the beach park across the street which had tons of sea turtles. The staff were also wonderful!!!
