The Modern Honolulu lends a sense of cosmopolitan chic to business events on Oahu. Refined yet relaxed, the hotel raises the bar on hospitality with its deft mix of innovative design and personalized service. A mood of stylish sophistication begins in the 353 guest rooms and suites, which feature natural tones and light woods, custom beds finished in down comforters and pillows, complimentary Wi-Fi, and balconies overlooking the city, yacht harbor, and Pacific Ocean.
Ravish, the property’s signature restaurant, approaches the dining experience as theater, with an open kitchen setting, unique murals, and a
waterfront lanai. The restaurant, which is billed as “Pacific-inspired, soul-infused,” serves up a menu of farm-to-table dishes that blend Hawaii’s bounty with Pacific Asian and South American flavors.
Meanwhile, the hotel romances meeting planners with one of the largest luxury ballrooms on Oahu — able to hold more than 1,000 guests — plus three prefunction galleries, four meeting studios equipped with state-of-the-art audiovisual installations, and a spectacular hospitality suite, as well as pool decks and terraces overlooking the ocean for unforgettable outdoor celebrations.
Further incentives range from Lather Spa to the Sunrise Pool with lushly landscaped gardens to the second-level Sunset Pool with its own lagoon. Three bars — including The Study, which is hidden behind a rotating bookcase, and Addiction, a popular Oahu nightclub — round out the entertainment options.

Stayed in August 2012 - wonderful hotel with great space. Love the design of the hotel - feels very modern without being stuffy. Staff does a great job. The Morimoto restaurant is so delicious. Would definitely recommend this hotel for mid-size meetings, incentives, social events.

This was an amazing hotel both through the planning process and for my crew. The only negative thing to be said was that I was passed around to four different people and usually had to repeat my emails and directions four different times. The communication among The Modern Staff was not great. They even incorrectly charged me over $17k because of this. But in the end it was all worked out and my crew was happy, so I am happy.

I applaud the excellent service I experienced when hosting the 25th Informal South Pacific Air Traffic Services (ATS) Coordinating Group Meetings (ISPACG/25) at the Waikiki EDITION Hotel in March 2011. From check-in, through the entire meeting, and all the way until check-out, the entire staff was as pleasant and professional as any I've seen in my many travels around the world!
