The Pictures Are Misleading!

We debated between the Monarch with kitchen and a regular hotel set-up. Having been to Maui, we knew eating out is very expensive so we chose the Monarch. We were hugely disappointed with the room they first assigned us (terrible!) and got a new room the next morning luckily with little fuss. The second suite was still dated and the mattress literally on springs but the kitchen was functional and less scary. If not for the fabulous view and nice staff, this place would barely rate a star!

We would NOT return!

Good rooms for price.

Hotel was very clean. Rooms may be a bit dated but had everything needed and were well taken care of. I would stay there again. Kitchenette was great. The staff at the front were friendly and helpful.

Location, location, location

we stayed in this hotel many times we like the location and people who managing the hotel. We received the upgrade from studio to 1 bedroom apartment without even asking thank you very much we will be back

Wonderful stay! 5 stars for Guest Services!

The Aqua Pacific Monarch was perfect for our stay in Waikiki. The hotel is 5 minutes from the beach and the rooms look as though they have been recently updated, very clean and modern. The staff is awesome! They are all extremely kind and genuine. We upgraded our room half way into our stay and they were so accommodating, we were greeted every time we walked in or out of the hotel.

Perfect Location

My husband and myself stayed October 29th to the 30th. The location was so terrific. It was only 2 blocks away from the beach. Our 11th floor room also had a partial view of the ocean, an unexpected surprise. We found the room was very well appointed, clean and the bed was very comfortable for us. The rooftop pool has a wonderful view of the ocean and surrounding sites. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. We would definitely stay again if we return to Hawaii
