As the crown jewel of Waikiki, our 5-star hotel on the beach offers a wide range of nearby adventures in the city of Honolulu. An endless array of outdoor and beach activities, cultural exploration opportunities & tantalizing restaurants are a short journey from the hotel.

        Royal Hawaiian Hotel History

        Long before Waikiki was as a tourist destination, King Kamehameha I had his home where The Royal Hawaiian stands today, and Queen Kaahumanu’s Summer Palace was located on what is now the resort’s Coconut Grove. Built on 15 acres of beautiful beach frontage, the luxurious hotel with its distinctive Moorish-style architecture, painted pink, was promoted world-wide as a premier visitor destination. On February 1, 1927, The Royal Hawaiian Hotel opened – a $4 million investment by the Matson Navigation Co., intended to be a luxurious for Matson luxury liner passengers. During WWII, the United States Navy recreation and morale office leased The Royal Hawaiian, transforming the resort into a major rest and relaxation center for the Navy personnel. The resort was restored to its pre-war elegance in 1947. Today, The Royal Hawaiian and its associates continue to carry on the legacy of the rich heritage and inspiring and distinctive character of the “Pink Palace of the Pacific.”
