The so-called "Pink Palace of the Pacific" opened its doors in 1927 and has been a favorite for the international set ever since. Although there have been many renovations in its more than 70 years of operation, the hotel and grounds have remained graceful, relaxed and very Hawaiian. In one wing, each room comes with a private lanai, canopied bed and Queen Anne-style writing desk. The most luxurious accommodations, the Prestige Suites, are truly magnificent. This is one of two original Waikiki hotels, and it still retains the feeling of Old Waikiki.

Hotel steeped in history and grandeur. Rooms smelt fousty mixed with very very old tobacco smell. The air conditioner was very noisey, the furniture may have been old to fit in with the hotel but it was more like cheap old rather than antique old

WE WONT GO BACK!

Been holidaying in Oahu since 1991, always wanted to stay at the Royal Hawaiian. It has great history and heritage, and excellent staff, but our room had no drawer space; had a noisy aircon that kept us awake; a tiny bathroom; a shower over the bath (!) with poor pressure; no coffee in room; noise in corridor came straight into the room. The Sheraton promise says "We're not satisfied until you are". I asked for a change on Day 1 and was told all rooms were the same and I'd have to put up with it. Provided the above feedback to them on leaving; so what? We've had much better amenity for half the price at other hotels and won't be using Sheraton again!!!!

Full of character

Stayed here for three days on honeymoon. Really liked it, just oozes a bit of class which is rare with US hotels. We stayed in the old part, the room was great. It was not all modern etc, but it had a bit of original features about it including a huge walk-in wardrobe, I could imagine all the 1920s film stars arriving with trunks full of clothes! Staff were great, nice and clean. Nice breakfast with view of the beach ... would definitely recommend it.
