"Halekulani's little-sister property, this 297-room tower isn't beachfront... and has no grounds to speak of. What it does have is terrific bang for your buck."

"The guest rooms in this high-rise complex have modern minimalist furnishings but give a nod to the tropics by keeping plantation-style shutters that open out to the lanai." Full review

"Although it’s not on the beach, it is the sister of the luxurious Halekulani across the street. The level of service is the same at a much lower price."

"Located across the street from its stellar sibling Halekulani and a two-minute walk from the beach, this is a trendier pocket-size version of its neighbor." Full review

"After a multimillion-dollar renovation, completed in 2009, fans of the iconic pink palace can breathe a sigh of relief: The Royal Hawaiian Hotel is more glorious than ever before."

Which room to book: Be sure you're in the historic wing, in a Beachview room.

"There's nothing like the legendary Pink Palace of the Pacific, and an $85 million face-lift in 2009, the iconic hotel set on 14 acres of prime Waikiki Beach is a unique blend of luxury and tradition." Full review

"Of the three luxury hotels in Waikiki -- the Moana Surfrider and the Halekulani are the others -- the 528-room Royal Hawaiian provides the most stunning design." Full review

"With its Moorish-style turrets and archways, the aristocratic, oh-so-pink Royal Hawaiian was Waikiki's first true luxury hotel."

For old-school ambience, ask for the historic building; for ocean views, the modern tower.

"The beloved “Pink Palace of the Pacific” has been a Waikīkī landmark since it opened in 1927. The stucco exterior, the interior decor, and even the towels are pink here."
Rough Guide Rough Guide
"The 1920s “Pink Palace”, commanding the beach, is one of Waikiki’s best-loved landmarks. Its original building, looking out across terrace gardens to the sea, remains irresistible."

"Still chic as ever, the storied Pink Palace of the Pacific was a Hollywood playground when built in the Spanish-Moorish style in 1922."
Gayot Gayot
