İnsanlar Neden Seviyorlar
- Directly across from the legendary Duke Kahanamoku statue and beach
- Rooms are significantly larger than most historic Waikiki hotels
- Globalist recognition is excellent (Regency Club access, waived resort fees on award stays)
Hızlı Özet: A massive, bustling twin-tower city hotel that happens to be across the street from the beach—expect crowds, elevator waits, and unbeatable views.
@Nur tarafından değerlendirildi: I loved how this spot let me feel stylish while still being super kid-friendly. The waterfall atrium was my favorite escape from the Waikiki crowds, and having the beach right across the street made our mornings so easy. Definitely a vibe for families who want a bit of glam.

Reality check
You are not 'on' the beach; you are across a busy six-lane avenue from it.
- You're traveling with kids and need room to spread out (standard rooms are huge)
- You want to be in the dead center of the action with 100+ restaurants walkable
- You're a Hyatt Globalist maximizing lounge access and waived fees
Temizlik & Bakım
8
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable, but with 1,200+ rooms, don't expect deep-clean perfection every day.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean, though some tubs feel 'squishy' or dated. Toto washlets are a nice standard feature.
- Maintenance: The hotel is old (1976) and it shows in scuffed baseboards and slow drains, despite renovations.
- Linens & towels: Crisp and standard Hyatt quality. Beach towels are readily available via a vending machine system.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells like fresh flowers and humidity; hallways can smell like damp carpet or cleaning chemicals.

SSS & Gizli İpuçları
Rezervasyon yapmadan önce bilmeniz gereken her şey.
Is it actually on the beach?
No. It is directly across Kalakaua Avenue. You have to cross a busy street to touch sand.
How bad is the elevator situation really?
Bad. During breakfast (8-10am) and dinner (5-7pm), you might wait 15+ minutes. Factor this into your schedule.
Is the Regency Club worth it?
Yes, for the outdoor lanai views alone. Breakfast is standard continental, but the space is a great escape from the crowds.
Can I walk to dinner?
Absolutely. You are within a 10-minute walk of hundreds of dining options, from cheap eats to fine dining.
Is the pool heated?
No, and it can feel chilly due to the wind tunnel effect between the towers.
Do kids stay free?
Yes, children 18 and under stay free in the same room as parents, which is a huge plus for families.
İçeri Sakıları
- ✨
Skip the hotel breakfast buffet ($43+) and grab a $3 musubi from Iyasume Cafe just behind the hotel.
- ✨
The resort fee includes a Biki bike credit—grab a bike and ride to Kapiolani Park to escape the concrete.
- ✨
There is a 'secret' spa elevator in the center of the mall that can sometimes bypass the main lobby crowds for the lower floors.
Gitmeden önce bilmeniz gereken 5 şey
💡The 'waterfall' in the atrium is incredibly loud and makes the lobby hard to have a conversation in.
💡The birds in the Regency Club are aggressive—do not leave your plate unguarded.
💡The bathroom layout is open-concept vanity; there is no privacy for brushing your teeth while someone sleeps.
💡You can rent a GoPro for free (included in resort fee) but you have to bring your own SD card or buy one there.
💡The 'ocean view' rooms often look directly into the other tower's rooms unless you are on a high floor.
