Queen Kapiolani Hotel

Our second stay and we love the location. We were hear for family events at the Outrigger Canoe Club so the location was perfect for us. also close to other Waikiki attractions.

This hotel is in a great location and has an amazing staff. For the most part, it was great, but has a need for some improvements. The coffee shop was excellent, and the valet parking staff were super friendly and helpful! I would recommend it higher if they improved some things, or lowered the price.

Amazing location overlooking the zoo with a beautiful view of Diamond Head and the water, just a couples minutes walk from the beach & volleyball courts! The hotel restaurant, The Deck, is a wonderful outdoor and covered place with very good food and specialty drinks. Also the coffee place in the lobby serves great coffee and lattes.

Given the fact this was a "cheaper" hotel in Waikiki, I was pretty surprised at how full service this hotel was. Daily room cleaning, fully kitted out bar and cafe, amazing location and views etc. Staff were also extremely friendly and helpful. Even offering to move rooms during stay due to noise etc.

We got a premier ocean view king balcony room, which is on a corner of the building and, though the room wasn't large, multiple windows the full length of two sides of the room made it feel larger. Many of the rooms seem to be on a corner, the way the building is designed; if a room wasn't on a corner, I don't know if the amount of windows would seem sufficient. It was also nice to have a little window up in the bathroom for ventilation. Our room on the 17th floor looked out towards the ocean and up towards the back of buildings in Waikiki. Initially I was disappointed it didn't look towards Diamond Head until I realized we'd have been awoken with the sun rise. There were 2 layers of curtain coverings, so we could darken our room and we heard virtually no noise from the street. The sheets on the bed were very soft, the mattress was comfortable, and the room was made up nicely each day. The AC worked very well. There are plenty of nice places to sit in the lobby area. The hotel decoration was nice, and every employee we encountered was pleasant and helpful. There's a great view of Diamond Head from the pool/restaurant level. The location is right across from good swimming areas, just a block from The Bus, and near Tucker & Bevvy for good açaí bowl breakfasts.
