A treasure!
Absolutely the best hotel experience in Waikiki! The spa staff was exceptional! Morning meditation, historical tours and shops staff are friendly and helpful. The valet had our taxi in less than five minutes and the housekeeping staff had our room looking fresh and tidy every day! The Mai Tai Bar has delicious snack and beverage choices and we enjoyed treats at the RH Bakery! Worth every penny!

Better than the photos
Stayed in historic room with "resort view" should really have been no view...
Room better than dated photos on hotels.com
Staff very helpful and excellent service overall.
Lack of room service and late night dining options are cause of deduction

Would stay again
We stayed for two nights before flying back home from Kauai. We stayed in the Meilani tower, and our view was unbeatable. The room itself was very small for my husband, almost four year old and I but the location was convenient. We were situated by the elevators so it was quite loud.

Loved staying in this historic hotel on Waikiki Beach. The property smelled of gardenia and had a nice pink theme. Pink flower arrangements, pink pancakes, and pink robes in honor of the pink lady hotel. The pool and beach were lovely with easy beach towel access. Room was comfortable.

I had two separate reservations that I combined. The first three nights I booked with American Express and the last three nights with hotels.com. The quality of service dropped drastically when I moved into the hotels.com reservation and I even tipped housekeeping daily. The WiFi is also a joke.

Staff is amazing. Over the top polite and friendly. Property needs a deep clean and or refresh soon but still clean, just worn a bit showing her age. She’s a beauty though and our favorite place in Waikiki to stay.

The Royal Hawaiian kind of seems like it’s resting on its history. The pool is a total joke (which we were prepared for) so we spent a lot of time at the Sheraton pool when not at the beach. It was just not a complete resort experience if you are going to a different pool to play and eat by the pool. The food at the Royal Hawaiian was also very limited. The Lua’l was also very overpriced and while the performance was very good, the food service was horrible. We paid just under $200 per ticket for the children and the waiter argued with my wife and I that if we let them eat the normal food and didn’t choose the kids chicken tenders we were making a big mistake”. Overall, the grounds are beautiful, but the staff didn’t really seem to be attending to their guests (accept bell hops at the traffic circle who were great). We’d probably try to Westin or Sheraton next time.
