IHG Army Hotels Building 228
Free breakfast and parking near Tripler
About this hotel
IHG Army Hotels Building 228 sits about one minute's walk from Tripler Army Medical Center and is open to civilians as well as military families, pairing free breakfast, free parking and free Wi-Fi in a no-frills setup. It's a longer drive from Wet'n'Wild Hawaii than the Kapolei or Ko Olina clusters, so it suits a family already spending time on this side of Honolulu rather than one basing a whole trip around the water park. A short walk to Meganiko's covers a casual meal without much planning, and the property accepts pets too, for the trip, before heading out for the day, for guests staying more than a night or two.

Our take
This is a practical, budget-friendly choice for a family already routed through the Tripler and Honolulu side of the island, with the water park as an add-on excursion rather than the main plan. It suits civilians who confirm base-access rules ahead of time; a family whose whole trip centers on Wet'n'Wild Hawaii will find Kapolei far more convenient.
- ✓Confirm current civilian base-access rules directly with the property well before the trip.
- ✓Budget extra drive time to Wet'n'Wild Hawaii from this side of Honolulu compared with Kapolei.
- ✓Use the free breakfast and parking to keep costs down on a longer, multi-stop Oahu itinerary.

Why guests love itWe stayed here as part of a longer Oahu trip that also included Pearl Harbor, and the free breakfast and parking kept costs down even though the drive out to Wet'n'Wild Hawaii took a bit longer than we expected. It's not a park-focused base, but it worked well for the rest of our Honolulu-side plans, on a longer visit, for families planning a slides day.
