I had a nice stay at the Queen Kapiolani, with its wonderful amenities and fantastic views of Diamond Head. The staff were incredibly attentive, making my experience even better. The location is ideal, offering a peaceful atmosphere while being close to all the action in Waikiki. However, I did encounter an issue with parking and the elevators could use some improvement, which affected my overall impression a bit.
