Safe and beautiful place to stay for a female travelling on her own. Staff are very friendly as as the hotel guests. I spent a lot of time sitting by the pool enjoying drinks and food while l layer in the sun. The was quick access to the beach. The Mai Tai bar was a great place to relax and meet new people.

Pros Incredibly well located, right on the best part of Waikiki strip, beautiful grounds and amazingly well kept historic hotel. You feel like walking back in time when you are there. Cons Although we had a great time the biggest drawback is that the rooms are small and the beds are small and old (double) so I wouldn't' recommend it for people who are traveling with kids and want to pile up in one room (like we did). Also the AC is super loud, even at low when it kicks in it will wake you up.
