Hilltop Legacy Vacation Rental

Had a beautiful time. Everybody was so kind and friendly.

安靜，衞生，好視野

We have stayed here several times, always in the Legacy Suite. The view of downtown from the front window is spectacular. But there is also a large side balcony that has a downtown view and, on a clear day, a great view of Mauna Kea. Also a nice view of the surrounding lush tropical greenbelt. Not sure, but this property could be on top of the highest hill in Hilo. I also love the original bathroom from the 1930s that this suite has, with its tile work and nice soaking tub, as well as the cute dressing room. So much more character than some newer properties or a generic hotel. Apparently there is sometimes confusion about where to park, but I'm not sure why since the on-site parking spaces are well-marked.

Hilltop Legacy is a very small hotel -- a few rooms that are part of a larger house where the family that manages or owns the property lives. As the name suggests, it's way up at the top of a steep hill with a lovely view of the bay. Unlike the last small hotel where we stayed on the Big Island, we found the arrival instructions to be straightforward and easy to follow. We were met by the friendly owner/manager, who helped carry our bags upstairs. The room was very small, but clean and pleasant. The walls, however, are very thin, and we felt as if we were in the next room. (Not a place we wanted to be.) The common area was inviting. All in all, we were very pleased.

Not a friendly place to stay and sooo many rules. I don't understand why I get an email and message about the millions of rules to follow because of neighbors and the parking isnvery tricky.and it seems that you have to be in a prison since quiet hours are from 9pm to 6am. What does that mean?

WATCH OUT!!! This hotel totally lacks any empathy for its guests! They don't care! We had NO CHANCE to get to Hilo on December 20, 2022. Our flight got canceled from HNL to HILO due to extreme circumstances with the weather. Hundreds of passengers got stranded by Hawaiian Airlines. It was all over the news. We reached out and asked if they could kindly refund us at least half of our money back or anything since we won't be staying at their hotel at all. They replied back saying, "Sorry we're a small company. No refund. We hope you understand". Because you are a small company, you should feel even worse charging full price for a hotel stay when guests are not staying there at all! If I got given minus 10 stars, I would! No empathy whatsoever. Nothing. We barely got an apology, no refund, and no empathy. NO SERVICE! They only want to take your money! BE AWARE!

We booked our room and were able to get a great price. The staff is accommodating. It is important to make sure if you have more than two people to get an extra room. The staff does their best to make sure that you are comfortable. Lastly the staff is very friendly. Thanks

我們在火山屋住了一晚。這塊地方棒極了，全新的浴室里設有2個浴缸和精緻的淋浴噴頭。在房間里，我們可以聽到鳥鳴及青蛙的叫聲。2座庭園對外開放，可以說花園真的很美。主人都熱情地接待我們並推薦鎮上美食的去處。唯一美中不足的是沒有早飯供應。
