This hotel feels like it had a facelift but you can still feel the age of it, with the exception of the pool deck. The view from pool of an unimpeded view of Diamond Head, that really you can’t get anywhere else. But that is unfortunately the highlight of the hotel. The rooms are just ok. The A/C in room was right next to the bed and kept switching on/off all night so not great for sleep. The bathroom was a step above grimy, so also had seen better days. Location was great for being at the Diamond Head side of Waikiki with quick walk to the less crowded beach areas and great access to the Zoo and Barefoot Beach Cafe at Queen’s Surf Beach.

Awesome service, very well melted and clean, Pool area was very serene and relaxing. Hostess in the restaurant was rude and wouldn’t bring are food to us and when I asked for condiments she suggest I go down stairs to the cafe area and I said I ordered my food here and would like condiments she wasn’t happy but gave them to me.

My husband and I were on our "bucket list adventure to Waikiki, Hawaii" and stayed at Queen Kapiolani Hotel. This hotel is indeed a hidden paradise which sits off the main Waikiki strip but still walking distance from the beach. The exceptional valet attendants impressed us both! They were always friendly and were able to make recommended places to go see on the island or try a new meal place when we ask them during our 11 days stay. Our suite room decor with fridge and microwave was beautiful, but your lounge chairs in the room were not comfortable after long mile walks. Thanks for an outstanding stay!!

Surf shop in the hotel with multi-day rentals and lockers, near the beach is very convenient. Being at the far end of the strip, across from the Zoo helps with the noise and makes you feel less part of the concrete jungle that is Waikiki, but still close to businesses.
