Hawaiian Monarch Hotel

Great room for money

The room with facilities like fridge and microwave oven, not to mention very comfortable beds and a good view, was great value for money. The receptionists were not only courteous but went out of the way to be helpful, giving all kinds of useful information and advice. I would happily recommend it to others.

Needs Imrovement

The hotel was ok for the money. I don't think I'd stay there again. It has good security measures. If you're going to spend less than an hour (other than sleeping) in your hotel room per day than it's not too bad.

needs improvement

Most reviews online about the Hotel physical condition are accurate. I feel that the hotel owner could spend some money to improve the physical condition with a slight increase of the rate. For example, the sink in my room seemed a bit clogged so sometimes I had to wait for the water to drain when I was washing my hands. A small amount of water from the shower somehow got onto the floor even though I had carefully cover the bathtub surrounding with the shower curtain. These are the areas (especially in the bathroom) that the hotel can improve much more.

Value Hotel

Reserved and paid for King bed 6 months before arrival. Upon arrival, received double bed room. Returned to front desk and asked for king bed. I was advised that corporate office assigned rooms. Front desk could not accomodate my king bed as designated on my Hotels.com reservation. I telephoned Hotels.com to complain and was advised that the hotel assigns rooms regardless of what was reserved at Hotels.com. The double bed had a single size mattress pad and sheets so warn that the stripes on the mattress could be seen through the sheet. Comments by others about the Hawaiian Monarch are generally accurate.

Good Location

The hotel is in a good location if you are attending conferences at the Convention Center. It is a short walk maybe 5-10 minutes. For the money you spend it is hard to expect any more from the hotel. Also, there are no alarm clocks in the room. Better choices for places to eat near hotel.

Generally good for what you pay for

I return to this hotel time and again while on business because it's a no-nonsense, low frills place. What I enjoy about it is the price vs. location (some of my favorite places to meet people are all within walking distance). If you're planning on staying in a hotel for any length of time and prefer first class ammenities, however, you're probably looking for another place. Consider the price and know the staff is very good at making the stay as comfy as possible. Parking is additional, but also among the least expensive at $12 per day.
