Patricia United States of America

Danny United States of America

Fantastic part of Waikiki Beach. Great food. Very friendly staff. Wonderful massages.

Michael United States of America

THE ROOM WAS IN GOOD CLEAN CONDITION. PATIO WAS WELL SETUP AS WELL. WE SELECTED AN OCEAN VIEW AND WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED. WET BAR WAS OPERATIONAL (THAT IS NOT ALWAYS TRUE IN OTHER HOTELS).

Rick United States of America

I loved the wonderful location right on the beach. The dining option and evening luau were both superb. I like the shopping available on site and love my pink Royal Hawaiian coffee mug and beach towels. The concierge was very helpful. We were able to arrive the morning of our one night stay, and use valet for 24 hours, which was perfect.

Lorie United States of America

Luxurious, shaded historic property with a beautiful garden, spacious rooms and all the amenities. Comfy robes and both a coffee maker and electric kettle in our junior suite. Great view of Waikiki beach and Diamond Head from the Royal Hawaiian. We ate at the Mai Tai Bar several times.

Susan United States of America

The location is excellent, right on the beach. The green space was soothing, especially in such a high profile part of Waikiki. The rooms in the old portion are charming, although it was delightful to have a balcony with the sound of the ocean.

Elizabeth United States of America

The service we received was excellent from everyone from the lady cleaning our room each day, to the attendants opening our doors as we arrived back at the hotel, to John our server at the restaurant and Zoe, our server at the Tiki Bar. My compliments to these and the remainder of your staff.
