Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel
The Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel is a tourist spot in itself in this famous tourist island. It features a fresh water swimming pool, and a nearby restaurant which has a great buffet. along with this is a 9 hole golf course & tennis courts. This contemporary eight-story Hotel is conveniently situated on Hilo Bay and overlooking the Coconut Island. As the Hilo Hawaiian Hotel sits quietly on the Bay, you can have an abundant view over the beautiful Mauna Kea's peak as it is guarded by Kilauea's sheer majesty.
Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel is also surrounded with a great environ of banyan trees, which is what it is famous for - a bay front resort of banyan trees. Since 1933, royalty, celebrities, national and local leaders alike have made it their tradition to plant banyan trees within the area, particularly on the street around the hotel. In fact, directly in front of the hotel stands still the most famous Banyan tree which was planted by no other than Babe Ruth himself in the year 1933. Right now, there are already more than 40 trees which have been planted since 1933. Among the many planters are President Franklin D. Roosevelt and King George V.
 
But perhaps, the greatest thing that this 3.0-star hotel can boast of is its privileged location. The Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel is located at 71 Banyan Drive, Hilo, Island of Hawaii, Hawaii 96720, United States. And just 45 minutes from here is the famous Volcano National Park. It is also only 2 miles from Onekahakaha Beach, 10 minutes from Rainbow Falls, 15 minutes from Boiling Pots and only 20 minutes from the famous
Akaka Falls. Truly, the hotel is in one of the best locations in Hilo! Among its many Location Highlights are the fact that it is on a lake with an airport nearby and a full-service health spa too! This Rainbow-rich principal town of United States of America encompasses a wide array of administrative center, university, and shopping districts which includes historic bay front, downtown, and Prince Kuhio Mall. It is also the home to attractions like the Lyman Mission House, Museum and many plantation villages.
However, inspite of all the activity surrounding this quaint hotel, and the fact that it's only within a couple minutes drive of downtown Hilo, its location on Banyan Drive still gives you a total sense of tranquil isolation.
Hilo International Airport has an approximate driving time of eight minutes and three miles to the Castle Hilo Hawaiian Hotel. Driving directions from Hilo International would include a route to Kekuanaoa St, then turn right on Kanoelahua Ave. and then continue on to Banyan Drive. In getting there, it would be best to take a taxi from the airport which will cost you around $5–15. Have fun! |
