The hotel's location is excellent and very convenient. Getting around is also a breeze. Since this hotel just opened in 2025, the facilities are still in great condition.

28.08.2025 jvstorres

Very good and historical hotel, but needing some reforms. Banyan rooms are really, really small and generically old. Also, these rooms don’t have a balcony…

Pretty good, great location.

30.07.2025 Guest

Nice room, but the front desk was terrible.

10.03.2025 Guest

Perfect location. Rooms clean and beds comfy. Great breakfast but should have included in package. Daily charge very expensive. Naive about the daily resort charge which made it a very expensive stay, you’re not made aware until check out. Great holiday though. Will be back but better prepared for hidden charges

Perfect experience for our stay

Loved our stay at this hotel. They upgraded us to an ocean-view room. Make sure to book rooms inside the tower to ensure the rooms are not dated. The lobby area, restaurants and the access to beach were amazing. The only things we didn't appreciate were that the pool beds were all occupied (with towels!) from 7 AM, making it impossible to find a bed next to the pool. Also, the beach chairs and umbrellas were for rent, which I find absurd for a hotel at this price point and located next to the beach. But, overall, the staff were amazing at suggesting attractions and excursions, they granted our request for a late checkout, and the location of the hotel could not have been better. We really enjoyed our stay.

30.06.2024 MARi

Hotel staff very friendly, nice, maintained cleaned, lots of people coming and going.
Pools close at 6pm
Feet away from actual beach .. ocean water very WARM, FRESH feeling.

Balcony was closed due to “safety
reasons” -sucked

If you walk/drive down towards HONOLULU ZOO there’s actual MAN MADE rock boarder .. where KIDS can swim freely … WAVES BLOCKED BY ROCKS.

Remember to WEAR SUNSCREEN/ be in the shade .. HAWAII IS HOT/humid

Might look like it’s going to rain but with a HUMID FEELING. (Warm)

Big disappointment. Paid extra for the balcony room, balcony out of order. I understand it's for my safety, but I was going to surprise my wife with an epic balcony room for our 10 year anniversary, and they waited all the way until check-in to tell us it's off limits. Never starting here again.

Good location tho, and friendly staff

02.06.2024 Y

We stayed a few months ago. Location is excellent and the hotel is very pretty to look at, but I won't be going back unless there's some major major changes. We got a nice room, but many people were smoking near us on their patio which ruined it. We couldn't spend time outside and smoke was coming in from the window. While the security was super friendly and tried really hard, they couldn't do much about it. I was also not impressed with their very expensive breakfast - the quality was just not there. The concierge I spoke with was really unhelpful when I asked about making reservations for tea and was in a hurry to leave at the end of her shift. The sheets were polyester and not breathable and were very hot and uncomfortable to sleep in especially with Hawaii's coral-friendly mineral sunscreen that doesn't wash off. They also ruined my luggage during storage after check-out and couldn't figure out how. We still enjoyed our vacation, but I will be looking to stay somewhere else next time.

This is a picture of the receipt. Very cryptic and confusing. Food was above average but we left very unsatisfied due to bad drinks and poor service.

09.11.2017 Mike

Ponderosa quality at a Ruth's Chris price. Lousy over salted steak with bland, paste-like rice. However, beautiful view, the same view that you can get downstairs at Dukes. If you are starving and must eat immediately, go to Dukes.

We had a really good time. The buffet was delicious and they also had vegan and vegetarian options.
The dancers were amazing as well as the singers, and the host was very informative.
Personally, I loved the evening show. We could see the sunset, the Diamond Head and all of Waikiki Beach in the background. It was truly magical.

22.10.2017 Jordan

I've been to every luau on the island and this one has hands down got to be the absolute best. Literally the only upscale luau on the island. It was incredible!! Service was great, food was OUT OF THIS WORLD, setting was gorgeous, show was very entertaining, the capacity of the luau was small about 100 so it felt intimate and it wasn't super noisy, we ate on actual dishes (not plastic/paper like other luaus) and the cash bar was great too!! Had an amazing time. 10/10 would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone and EVERYONE!!!

05.07.2017 Amanda

Paid almost $400 (2ppl) to watch a pretty boring show. The restaurant next-door has a patio where you can watch the entire thing for free and choose the food you want. The food is my biggest complaint. Buffet style with IHOP quality. Advice, eat next door and watch show for free. The dancers were tired and not in sync. So wrong to take advantage of tourists like this.

09.06.2017 Timothy

This was by far the best part of our trip. We sat outside and had a fantastic time watching the show with our food and drinks.

15.01.2015 D

While we were staying at the Royal Hawaiian, we went to the Aha'aina dance show/celebration during the week of Christmas and we very much enjoyed it. The weather was not very favorable that night, but all the RH staff were very friendly and accommodating, and we were promptly assigned to a table inside the restaurant.

Though not lavish, the buffet was quite good. The Aha'aina dance show was excellent – with many type of dances, including the iconic Hawaiian dance and fire performance, were all performed accordingly – so there was simply no need to get to the Polynesian Cultural Center.

Note: Seat selection is on a first-come-first-served basis so try to arrive early if you can.

Two conditions gives this McDonald's only 1 star: 1.- Customers chit-chat loudly and management permit them to be disruptive. If you want a quite place to enjoy a meal 'this is not it.' 2.- Third World Countries female employees also shout and yell to communicate with each other, and they treat American customers as "I can do anything I want and you have no recourse."

17.11.2017 liz

Go to stop when I didn't want to waste all my money on food! Good service!!

29.10.2017 Keith

Not a long queue..Food was excellent..place was clean..friendly staff although there should be more advertising on the outside as I walked past it twice not knowing it was there..Google to find it! :)

29.09.2017 beatrice

It's literally off of wakiki beach, so its very convenient. Food is actually not bad, I forgot to try their spam meal, but other than that I had a pleasant time there the employees are pretty nice and the food was always nice and hot. They don't have bathrooms which I thought was weird, especially since the building looked new. We came here almost every day because it was close to our airbnb.
