My college age daughter and stayed at the Royal Grove in January for five nights.After the initial shock at how dated the place was we settled in for a great stay.The one bedroom with kitchen was so handy.It was easy to stock up at the Pantry on Kuhio,so breakfast,lunch,dinner and snacks were easy.The other guests consisted of older long term...

The hotel was clean, comfortable, spacious for the location and amazing affordable. We stayed in a two-room suite with a full-size bed and two twin beds. Exactly what we needed. We intend to stay at the Royal Grove for any future visits to Honolulu. More

I've been staying here on & off every year for the last 40 years & have watched the hotel become a home & guests become family over time. You get what you pay for & the RGH is central to Waikiki entertainment. A block or so to the beach & surfing, snorkelling & markets. It's not for everyone but then... More

Great location, clean room at a reasonable price, and helpful staff that see more than dollar signs when talking with. Many of the people we met at the hotel, have been returning year after year, for many years. More

Once again, I cannot say enough good things about my positive experiences at this hotel. I just returned after visiting from Novemeber 16th to December 1st. The lovely Thanksgiving potluck dinner, hosted by the Fong family, was a great opportunity to reconnect with other repeat visitors, along with meeting visitors new to the "Grove experience". I have always found the... More

I went with no expectations but was totally shocked by how little we had to spend to be half-a-block from the beach in clean comfortable surroundings. I especially liked the well-stocked library and inadvertently left a library book from the Vancouver Island library there, which I hopefully will pick up and return for my $8 when we return in January....

Avoid this place at any cost. Not worth the cheap price. I booked a room months in advance which was for a queen bed and a/c. When I checked in, I was told my reservation was for two single beds and not a queen, but they would upgrade me to a room with a double-bed and balcony for no extra... More

I have stayed here during many trips to Honolulu at least 6 times. I try to go twice a year. Very few local places left, especially close to the beach. Don't give me a 4-5 star hotel when I'm there. I want the true feel, smell and experience of the Island. I've gone alone and occasionally brought my spouse. Very... More

This was our second stay at the Royal Grove, first time was only 3 or 4 days, this time 8 days, next time much longer. It is so close to everywhere. Our uncle used to stay here every year since l960's so we reckoned if he liked it it was Ok for us and it is the best - suits... More
