Don't really think Waikiki needs more glitz and luxury.

I have stayed there on quick trips a lot and always appreciate a decent hotel option in the midst of the action that does not cost a fortune and is usually available. For those who complain about it there are many other SPG options nearby. But it looks like it may be a done deal. Anyone know when construction starts?
I agree. On the other hand, your comment about glitz and luxury? That only applies to the shopping options. The hotel options really don't come close to real luxury, save perhaps the Halekulani, where I've never stayed.
