King Solomon Hotel

I was concerned given the low score of this hotel, but I had a good experience. The staff was helpful and the place is beautiful (although yes, lots of stairs). Also, it is very well located - walking distance to the few cafes, restaurants and museums in the center, as well as to a supermarket. They have a shuttle to the airport which is cheaper than the taxi. Airport is max 30 minutes by car, wharf is 5 minutes. The food is also ok, though nothing special.

Some things where misleading from Booking - e.g. you can't actually add breakfast, there is only a menu with a few breakfast options. The wifi only works at the restaurant and bar, you can purchase it for the room but it only works on one device... I recommend getting a free simcard at the airport and paying for internet through that, it's cheaper. The room was cleaned regularly, but when I left the towels in the shower (to request a change, as per hotel's instructions), they were not changed - the same stains where still there. Towels and bed sheets were also very old. Overall a bit expensive for what you get, but there's not much choice in Honiara.

Breakfast basic. No free wifi in rooms.

Hotel staff friendly. Rooms very tired/shabby. No hot water. No free Wifi in rooms.

- central location in Honiara - they have a nice restaurant and bar - price quality ratio is ok given the hotel prices in Honiara

- facilities and design of the rooms are simple and dated -

Very friendly staff

Cable car on and off.

Great location, rooms had everything you needed and staff were great.

Cable car can be temperamental but hardly an issue, unless you have mobility issues.
