Quaint, clean, affordable, convenient friendly staff. This is ideal if you need a place to sleep with the basics and not a resort experience.

The property is set up similar to a hostel, with common areas. It is separated from town, but close enough for easy access. I would certainly stay again.

I highly recommend staying at Arnott’s. Not only was the lodge clean and comfortable. The staff was absolutely amazing. They go out of their way to make sure you have the best experience here in Hilo. If you have the chance to sit and coffee with Doug (the owner), you won’t regret it!

The bathroom was musty, but the shared kitchen and lanai were nice.

Jamieann, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I was here for a work conference and needed a clean, safe place while spending the day at my meetings. My room was one of six in a cottage. Immaculate, everything worked fine, bed was comfortable. The room had a fridge and coffee maker, but the cottage also had a full kitchen. Other folks shared the common space and kitchen, but quiet at night.

We’ll loved property-love all the Christmas decorations and all the frogs that chirp at. Ishtar!!
Sally, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Arnott's Lodge is a quiet, cozy home away from home. The staff were so friendly. We stayed in a studio. Parking was right outside your private entrance so very easy to unload luggage. The studio had air conditioning, a large kitchen island, a 2 burner stovetop, mini fridge, toaster, microwave and utensils. It was so nice to be able to cook our own meals. The private bathroom had a large shower. The bed was our favorite part. Firm but oh so comfortable after a long day of exploring. The beach is a 3 minute walk down to the end of the road. It's a tiny beach entrance and was never crowded. This lodge is extremely close to the Hilo airport and it can be very loud when planes are landing so be aware if you are a light sleeper. We will definitely be staying here again when in Hilo.

4/10 Fair

Well it was okay, but did not like the fact you are suppose to leave a 200 dollar deposit upon arrival that was not mentioned when you book the room, n it's shared kitchen, n tv, and the room was musty smelling. And then you are afraid of using the bathroom toilette b cuz it might come unattached from the wall.

Great Stay

Had a great visit. Everyone is particularly helpful. Met with Mr. Arnott and he was very accommodating and friendly. The staff are really good if you need any extra soap or supplies. It used to be a hostel but has now turned into a hotel and it’s very amenable to all of the local events and facilities.

Tired, Mildewy Place with Some Good Qualities

Arnott's Lodge is old and in desperate need of updating. I would say that it is comfortable enough. The beds and pillows were comfortable, the A/C worked in the bedrooms (but none in the community areas), the bath and shower were okay, but didn't like the shower head. The check-in guy was super nice. However, there were some negatives that I would say overshadow the positives. First, it smelled of mildew all throughout. Second, we ran across several roaches, including in the beds. Third, there was one bed in the living room, but no A/C for the living room, so the person who slept in the living room was the only one without air conditioning. Fourth, our room was located in the corner, right next to the neighbors who had some kind of bird sanctuary, and the birds never shut up, even at night. This affected the person sleeping in the living room and the people sleeping in the back bedroom.
