Waikiki, Hawaii

Better than the hotel chains

Reviewed Jan 14, 2022
Their cleanliness is impeccable especially considering they are pet friendly. The staff is so nice you feel like you’re in a movie lol. The valet goes above and beyond. We had 10 totes roughly 100 lbs each and they delivered them to our room. Refused to let us help! If we forgot something in our car, they would run it up to our room number! Room service food is very tasty, restaurant on site operating under reservations, Coffee shop is a step above, try the Kona brew!!! Beautiful art shop that is affordable for Hawaii memorabilia! Approx 300 feet to near ABC Store and best part!!!!! 1 block to the beach! I’ve stayed at many hotels chains in Waikiki, this place is by far more clean, unquestionable loyalty to customer service! I will only stay here in the future! Thank you Queen Kapiolani Hotel and Staff!!!!

The Queen Kapiolani (QK) has been are “go to” hotel in Honolulu for over 20 years. Excellent location, view, and staff. No pet policy. Upon arrival on 12/21/21, we found ourselves immersed in dogs. Thought we were in a makeshift kennel. From the littlest to 70 lb aggressors. Love dogs but this experience was over the top; aggression, jumping on people, dogs barking in rooms, urine in elevator. Management said in essence get use to it or find another place to stay. We will.

Overall, the hotel was satisfactory. But I would not consider it a 4-star as it was rated when I booked it with Air Canada Vacations. I found that the staff were friendly, the bed was nice and firm, and the room clean. What was annoying was the lack of a coffeemaker in the room.
The issue was one of their elevators was down, and that left only two others for the whole hotel, including taking people to the 3rd floor restaurant. It was horrible trying to get a lift to the 11th floor and we often took the stairs to avoid the overcrowded elevators. Guests weren’t following the 4-person max and we weren’t comfortable in a full elevator with strangers… some better about masks than others…
If you do decide to book, I would also review your charges upon return home. I found incorrect taxes listed and had to contact their accounting office to get the bill listing, then had to ask for the minor error to be refunded.

This is our third stay at the recently remodeled beautiful Queen Kapiolani Hotel. Our rooms feature an unobstructed gorgeous full windows view of Diamond Head, the Pacific Ocean while overlooking the Honolulu Zoo. The hotel staff are all exemplary in catering to the needs of each guest. Julie Ogata, Sales Manager for the hotel, coordinated flawlessly, a 4 day birthday celebration, with guests arriving from all over the mainland.

I booked this hotel because it was cheaper than the big chains nearby. And I was not disappointed. The hotel is adorable. Very Hawaiian in deco. The employees were all super. The bellman was nice, the desk staff was helpful, and the service at the restaurant on the roof was excellent. The French toast and the pancakes were to die for. The beach was only a block away! The only drawback was the street noise at night.
