Hotel berhampiran Mauʻumae Ridge Trail (Puʻu Lanipō), Honolulu

Our second stay at the Royal Grove Hotel in as many trips, and we continue to be impressed with this small family-owned business. The Royal Grove is one of the few who do not charge an amenity fee, which makes a big difference in one's budget. The rooms are spacious - the ones with lanais are great - we sat out on ours every morning and enjoyed the bird song that served as our alarm clock. The staff are very helpful, and we wish we had caught the name of the young woman who never seemed to have a day off. Thank you for being so accommodating. The pool area is really fun and great for small children and families. There are boogie boards and beach mats to borrow when you go to the beach, and the best part of Waikiki Beach is just 1 1/2 blocks away. There is a handy ABC store at the end of the block, and a grocery store a few blocks away. Most units have kitchenettes, which we made good use of to cut down costs, and the laundry is just off the main common area and is efficient and affordable. The Royal Grove has a sense of community we haven't found in other hotels and Wednesday nights from 7:00pm - 9:00pm are ukulele night with many attendees having played here for over 20 years. We've stayed a total of 18 days over two visits and this is where we make our home in Hawaii - it really does feel like home when you are here. We highly recommend the Royal Grove Hotel.

very good location..infront of Nordstrom Rack Waikiki and a block away to the famous Marugame Udon..the room was outdated but very spacious, had 2 queen size beds and 1 single bed, and has a kitchen with stove top. Microwave oven and kettle upon request..will definitely book again next time

The hotel is in the center of Waikiki. A lot of shops and restaurants are nearby.I The beaches are 100 meters away. The famous hotels Moana Surfrider and Hyatt Regency are across the street. Royal Waikiki Center is a beautiful mall nearby. There are a lot of luxury retail stores and restaurants in the mall.

Stayed here for 1 week,location is great. Right on Waikiki. This hotel doesn’t have its own beach but offers free sitting chairs to bring with you to the beach and towels. Takes 20secs to the beach.Really tall hotel so you can see sunset over the ocean,staff is SUPER friendly. Building is old like all of them on Waikiki,furniture needs updating,mattress is hard but they give you 4 pillows,asked for our room to be freshened up when came back sheets and duvet cover never got changed.Asked next day to freshen up and left sheets same way.Not sure why,cleaning staff spoke perfect English!Mon&Wed they got farmers market downstairs,outrageous prices a Coconut for $20US, a small cup of fruits for $20US,youll also find bracelets and other junk! Overall it’s affordable and central,we didn’t eat on the resort nor used their spa so can’t recommend!

Good location, nice lobby, convenient parking however the parking lot was very tight driving a mini van. Rooms were old and run down. Stains on carpets, old bathtub and the room reeked of mold and mildew. This place gets a 4 star because it was conveniently located, great service, complimentary coffee every morning and the bed was comfortable.

So....got a great rate on Travelzoo voucher for 4 nights. This hotel has been remodeled and is still in process of completing some work in common areas. Starbucks opened when I was there, and Monkeypod will open in the future. Staff was fabulous! No complaints there. I was able to check in early and got a partial ocean view on floor 11. Room was spotless. My only complaint, and it's a big one for me, is the soundproofing. I should say lack of it! Doors are HEAVY and each open and shut on the floor nearby is a shock to the sleeper. Also, the wind whistled and the band and traffic comes right in through slider to balcony. The band stops at 9, so that was no problem, and very nice. But....I hated the door slams and other interior noises. If you are a light sleeper, I don't think you will enjoy yourself. I wore ear plugs. Location is superb! It really can't be beat. Pool is OK. The jacuzzi was kind of icky. One being closed the entire time, the other kind of grey and the one attached to the pool generally full of kids. No jacuzzi for me. Towels and loungers were readily available. No problems there. We did have a problem at restaurant/ bar with what we think was bad turkey or mayo on a club. My grandson and I got sick within a couple hours. Unfortunately for the maintenance staff there was some cleaning up to do in the bathroom. The staff responded immediately and were so nice about it. I cannot thank them enough. However, when I reported this to the restaurant manager in the morning I was not totally happy with his response. All in all, I would stay there again for what I paid for it.

- The hotel's location and surroundings are very good, such as location and access to the beach - Good daily room cleanliness. - Breakfast is not available, so you have to go out every time or buy takeout food to solve it. - Parking fee is charged daily (one day fee is charged for late afternoon arrival and early departure), - At the time of hotel reservation, we informed that it was a trip to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary, but there was no congratulatory message or consideration at all.

Because I knew what I was expecting with the only room amenities being wifi and a fan, I was not disappointed. For future guests, this is a YMCA residence, not a hostel or motel. The building is older but it’s easy to get around from your room to the front desk. I actually preferred the no alcohol policy of the establishment because I’m in recovery (almost 6 years sober!). Just be prepared for a humid, hot night with a fan to cool you down. The only AC that I was shown was in sort of a day room area which was always open.

Uhhhhh..... We stayed in this hotel because our flight got in late and we needed a place close to the airport to crash for one night. This hotel fits that purpose well. That said, I wouldn't recommend this hotel for any other situation other than the one I just described. They were pumping sewage right outside of our door the morning we woke up. Also, our room key didn't work the morning we were checking out. The only other positive of this hotel is that it is within walking distance of THE BEST little food place we came across on our whole trip: Joe's Grill Express. We cannot wait to come back so we can visit Joe's again.

Bonjour , Les installations et le service correspondaient à nos attentes . Nous aurions apprécié d'avoir une chambre avec vue sur la mer ,la montagne , la piscine ou les jardins quitte à payer un peu plus, venant de France pour admirer la beauté des paysages . Nous avons eu une chambre (53)qui donnait d'un coté sur la rue (avec une petite terrasse ) et de l'autre sur le parking ! Nous n'aurions pas relevé pour une nuit mais nous en avons passés 6... Nous sommes donc très déçus par l'apport de TRIP sur cette réservation , la prochaine fois nous nous adresserons directement à l'hôtel . Cdt
