Ko‘olauloa District: Luxe vakanties

Prima kamer, beetje klein, geen balkon, verder netjes en schoon

Ruime kamer elke dag goed schoongemaakt. Vriendelijk personeel. Restaurant prijzig voor wat geserveerd wordt.

Conveniently located, this place is in the heart of everything – shops, the beach, and more. While the rooms have a slightly outdated charm, they are very comfortable, and the breathtaking sea view more than makes up for it.

包含這一次已經是第三次入住這家飯店，一切感覺都和幾十年前一樣，住得非常舒適，每天可以看到大海，飯店經歷多年的歲月，設施仍然維持一定的水準，五星酒店當之無愧，員工的訓練從櫃檯職員。打掃的清潔人員，到維修的水電工人。對客人的態度彬彬有禮。讓我覺得回到家一樣。 但是早上的自助餐，菜色還有改進的空間，我只有第一天下去吃早餐，其他兩天都到外面去吃。

Heavily overpriced for the quality you get (on food and beverages). Also paying for beach chairs etc. Hotel is nice and we enjoyed the installation but food and beverages were very basic while all charged on premium rates. Also very high fees to rent beach equipment which in my point of view is outrageous. We have much better experiences in Hawaii concerning that so definitively something to improve. No problem to pay a price but you expect something in return which we didn't feel at all.

The Royal Hawaiian is a classically beautiful hundred year old hotel with Gorgeous grounds and a respite from the main drag of Waikiki, which is only steps away. You feel as if you’re in a different world. We didn’t love the room. We got an Ocean view room with a King bed, which was the last such available. While it was as advertised, we didn’t love the room. Furnishings were minimal; there was only one chair. It had a handicapped shower, which was functional but not desirable if you don’t need it. It did have an ocean view, but it wasn’t the best. The carpeting in the hallway was dirty in spots and either needed a good clean or replacement. For a five star hotel that was priced like one, these are legitimate gripes. Still overall it was a lovely experience and the atmosphere is unparalleled anywhere else in Waikīkī.

Perfect qua lokatie, veel restaurants op loopafstand. Waikiki beach op 5 mins lopen. Check-in snel, en behulpzaam personeel. Tour pick-up en autoverhuur op loopafstand. Tip: huur geen auto voor je hele verblijf op Oahu, maar gebruik Uber of huur voor een dag als je verder weg het eiland op gaat, Los van auto huur … parkeren is al 55$ per dag in de parkeer garage. Ondanks de ligging aan drukke straat was het in de kamer rustig. Handig refill punt voor water flessen. Wij hadden een standaard kamer, voldeed verder goed, goede stille AC, maar het onderhoud kan hier en daar beter, bijv in badkamer (schimmel sporen op de tegels). Verder kregen we in de aanloop naar ons verblijf een mailing met aanbieding voor de Cirque du Soleil show die in het hotel draait, maar toen we die wilde boeken bleek deze show tijdens ons verblijf 2 weken gesloten ivm vakantie voor de crew. Tot slot, het ontbijt cafe in het hotel, bij het zwembad, was perfect voor ontbijt, middag snacks en drankjes. Goede selectie, veel keuzes en vers bereidde producten.

Overall the room was clean and good enough for a few nights. But at first we searched for the bed, it was in the closet, by this the room was getting quite small. Oke for us because we would only sleep over here but a small minor. The room has carpet, because of hygiene we mostly dont like that. There were also no windows to open so it became smelly. We were at the end of the hallway so we were able to open the front door at some times. It is inportant to know the hotel is kinda above a nightclub, most evenings we woke up around 3/4am by some shouting drunk people downstairs. Not much later, around 5/6 you are woken up by the citycleaning. Also, you can not park your car at the hotel, there is free parking at the Ala Wei boulevard but these are the only free spots in Waikiki town so you have to ride the whole boulevard maybe two times to find a parking spot (one way direction). The positive thing is that the hotel is at a good walking distance to the waikiki beach. Across the road is a supermarket called Spitfire where you can have a cheap meal. Actually the best and cheapest meals we had in Waikiki. This hotel is fine for just a few nights if you dont mind the negative points of above and if you are really there for the city. Dont come over here for rest.

We werden goed verwelkomd is een leuk en klein hotel midden in Honolulu, letterlijk 1 minuut van het strand en allerlei eetgelegenheden.. dus centraler kun je niet zijn .. personeel was en is echt top. Lieve en meedenkende mensen. Je kunt wel zien dat de accommodatie vrij verouderd is en best gehorig. Je hoort letterlijk alles van de straat en de loeiende airconditionings. Wij hadden een kamer waar de gordijnen van de rail vielen toen we deze open wilde doen.. badkamer denk ik toch iets te klein vergeleken met de rest van de kamer.. Een prima accommodatie verder voor 1 of 2 nachten ..
