Aloha Michael, Mahalo for choosing The Royal Hawaiian, a Luxury Collection Resort, Waikiki, and for your great review. Located in the heart of Waikiki, our five-star destination is steps away from the beach and a wide range of adventures in the city of Honolulu. We appreciate you mentioning our fantastic location, and we hope to welcome you again soon.Mahalo,Nicole OkunaThe Royal Hawaiian, Hotel Manager

The size of the Junior Suite with garden view was huge, we had a view overlooking gardens out one window, however the other windows overlooked the roundabout and carpark. Unfortunately we couldn’t get into our room as early as we would have liked so we could put our toddler to sleep, but we were able to use the pool and hospitality room to freshen up. The room didn’t have any menu in it for room service so not sure if the hotel provides it? Upon arrival we got a voucher for the hotel bakery which was really nice. The aircon was really loud and blew over the bed. Car parking is $40 which is super expensive in my eyes.

Fantastic location and staff. The pool is not large but that is Hawaiian beach hotels near Waikiki. We tried to do the canoe but the Beach Boys were not that helpful.

Aloha, Thank you for choosing to stay at The Royal Hawaiian, a Luxury Collection Resort. We are delighted to hear that the location and staff were great. However, we apologize about the size of the pool. We do have another pool option called Helumoa Playground, which is shared with our sister property Sheraton Waikiki, which is available for guests to experience. We thank you for your comments, and hope to welcome you back again in the future!

The age and heritage. Didn’t like that the First Lady we spoke with on check on was going to give us a roll away rather than the two doubles that we ordered. The second lady we spoke with upgraded us to give us what we had booked and paid for. Much nicer attitude.
