I stayed here because I didn't have a car. Wasn't sure of my decision because I was wanting to have a beach in front of me, but it was the best decision I could have made. One has access to everything Lahaina has to offer and it's all walking. The hotel is so clean and nice. The food is excellent... More

I spent 3 nights there last week on my trip to Maui. It was absolutely wonderful. The people are friendly, the atmosphere is great with plenty of old world charm about the place. The decks on the rooms are large and comfortable. The rooms are comfortable but they each have their own window air conditioner but for me the minor... More

Aloha! We visited the Pioneer Inn, Lahaina for the first time celebrating our 40th Anniversary in 2011 and had some issues. Those issues were taken care of very well and my wife and I said that we would return. We returned in May again and we are glad we did. You are greeted by some wonderful people at the Reception...

Mahalo! You did a great job of summarizing our friendly, helpful employees. Thank you too for taking note of the improvements that we have made since your last visit. We always strive to stay historic but keep up with the amenities to make our inn comfortable. More

The Pioneer Inn is an older, more historical alternative to the big resorts on Maui. It has an absolutely prime location on the waterfront in Lahaina. There is a multitude of restaurants and shopping right out the door. Our room was small but adequate sized, and quite clean and well kept up. We also had an interior balcony which was... More

I stayed there on the advice from a local and was very pleased with the accomidations. The reasturant was very good and the rooms were also good. It is one of the oldest hotels on Maui and it's location sets apart from all the rest. When yoiu walk out the front door there are all the fishing charter boats along... More

Katherine worths the Stay, but the hotel itself asks urgently for big changes. Old and noisy air conditionair, no concierge, etc. Too expensive for what it offers. Good location, with many stores around, but not so Nice beach.

The pioneer inn has a wonderful location. Everything is close by. We had a cute balcony facing the street. We enjoyed our stay. The only downside (only my opinion) - beds were very uncomfortable. I have 3 herniated disks and sleep comfort is very important. Therefore I was not fully satisfied with that aspect. Otherwise great hotel.

This fine old hotel has stayed the same for 100 years, making it the exact opposite of the glitzy beach resorts just up the shore. Pioneer is on the harbor at the ferry landing and the old lighthouse. It occupies the second floor (shops on the bottom) so rooms have a nice balcony, a high ceiling, and a view. There... More

This is a nice place to stay. It has nice older rooms, but clean that is for sure. We stayed with our deck facing the courtyard, so it was quiet. I would imagine if you stay facing the park it would be lot louder, but would be great for people watching. The restaurant/bar downstairs is great as well. They are... More
