What can I say about this hotel. Not the newest, cheap as chips but so welcoming. We stayed here in 2006 and wouldn't think of staying anywhere else. Its not pretentious by any means. The staff treat you like family and I hope it never changes. We had an early arrival 7am and rolled into reception around 8am not expecting... More

This hotel is a great deal, the staff is very friendly and accommodating. It is clean and basic and just what we needed for a couple of nights on a trip to Hawaii. Spending so much time outside in Honolulu, all you need a hotel room for is sleep and shower, anyhow!

Its my second time at the Royal Grove (previous stay in may 2012) and I would go back there in a second!! The lobby is filled with caracter and history, old pics and surf boards plus a nice music show every week by the owner and friends. Doors in lobby locks at midnight, security feature appreciated when you are a... More

This hotel is an excellent value -- it is literally a five minute walk to the beach! The rooms are cute and very functional. There is a kitchenette with dining supplies and a fridge, which is perfect for storing leftovers and fruit. The lobby staff were very helpful, and the pool was clean and refreshing. There were also many things... More

I book another hotel, I was NOT happy with it, there was a convention in town, not many hotels. I when by the Grove twice, I... More

Hotel is a budget property in a high price area, and guests understand that. The manager, Tim Fong, however, has plumbed new depths of cheapness in a misguided effort to make a bit more profit from guests. Gone is the coffee that has been available every morning for years, and which was mentioned favourably in previous reviews. This economy probably... More

Have stayed here a couple of times and enjoy it each time! A nice short walk to the beach. Free wi-fi in the lobby, and friendly people who work there. We were here when the tsunami alert was on in October and felt very secure knowing we were in good hands. Monday night lobby jam is a wonderful way to... More
