6.  How do I get to your hotel?

If coming by shuttle or taxi just tell them the name of the hotel and they will know the directions, now that's easy!  Driving yourself?  Leave the airport on H1 East, take Nimitz Highway which turns into Ala Moana Boulevard, stay on Ala Moana Boulevard which will bring you to Kalakaua Avenue, you can only turn right... Kalakaua Avenue will split into Kuhio Avenue toward the left... turn onto Kuhio and the Waikiki Gateway Hotel will be your very first hotel on the right.
