Important thing says 3 time
Everything is good
the staff is nice
Everything near by
The only thing is they don’t have a microwave
I know they don’t have it in the room before I book the hotel but I didn’t think of the whole hotel don’t have a microwave that I can use
So …… 4.7 star

Cut pool and bar area, the staff are great, a special shout-out to Ariel....and the other gentleman working to her left on both the night I checked in and out. I was able to stay an extra two hours for a fee which was necessary as I closed down Wang-Chung's Karaoke bar after out 40th class reunion get-together. The cheeseburger sliders at the part were awesome!

Great location and lovely, boutique hotel in the heart of Waikiki. Off the Main Street so less noise. The pool was small (so those with kiddos, it’s not as kid friendly as some of the bigger hotels) but perfect for this Mama who had a few nights to herself! Felt polished and refined without feeling too fancy/stuffy. Cool bar!

This is an older hotel but it has been very nicely refurbished and modernized. The rooms are nice, clean, and modern, with good air conditioning. The hallways are not air conditioned. The restaurant and bar are modern and clean, and the food is good. Service was pretty slow at breakfast time - they need more servers.

It's a great location, just two blocks off the beach, and the prices are quite reasonable for Waikiki. Would definitely stay here again.

Overall: 5/5 ⭐ Absolutely loved it! I highly, highly recommend this place and will 100% stay here again next time I'm in Honolulu!
I seriously cannot say enough good things about the Romer House. The room, the location, the staff, the service—everything was just awesome!
What I absolutely loved:
The Location: Just perfect. It’s close to everything and so convenient.
The Room & Bed: Spotless, super clean, and the bed was so comfortable. Plus, it has a bidet toilet which was a great bonus!
The Staff: Honestly, some of the nicest, most courteous service ever. They make you feel so welcome.
The Food: You have to eat at the restaurant—the food is excellent!
Just a few honest things to note:
The Shower: The glass wall is a bit narrow, so water splashes everywhere on the bathroom floor. It drove my anxiety a little crazy, but it's manageable!
Weekend Noise: The windows/glass doors aren't fully soundproof, and there’s a club nearby. Friday and Saturday nights definitely get noisy, so just pack some earplugs if you’re a light sleeper.
The Pool: It’s on the smaller side, but honestly, who cares? You’re in Honolulu, and everyone just goes to the beach anyway!
Final Thoughts:
Even with the splashy shower and the weekend noise, the amazing staff and perfect location completely blew me away. I truly loved my stay here. If you're heading to Waikiki, book it!

I was excited to book Romer Waikiki over other nearby boutique hotels based on the property’s website and Instagram presence, which showcased a vibrant atmosphere and amenities that seemed thoughtfully curated. Unfortunately, my experience didn’t fully match those expectations.

One of the amenities that influenced my decision was the advertised yoga offering, but the class was canceled during my stay. I only learned this after asking the front desk, and no advance notice was provided. Better communication around amenity changes would have been appreciated.

I was also surprised by an additional $700 deposit requirement at check-in. This was not clearly communicated during the booking process, and I had expected to pay only the amount and fees outlined through Expedia. While I understand deposits are common, transparency beforehand would help guests plan accordingly.

Overall, the hotel had a nice aesthetic and good energy, but the experience felt underwhelming compared to the expectations created by its marketing. For a boutique hotel at this price point, I was hoping for more attention to guest communication, follow-through on the amenities that were advertised and a more aloha feel. Something that the island is known for.

The Romer House was a great choice for our stay the bed was amazingly comfortable the staff were great especially Nia at the front desk she was awesome thank you.
We had a package with Breakfast included the food was top notch and much better than any of the hotels I’ve stayed at nice twist on classic breakfast they made each meal feel special the Pancakes were great! We had dinner at the restaurant in the hotel 855-Aloha a bit pricey but worth the money I had the off menu Steak cooked perfectly full of flavor and for dessert I had the Pineapple Upside Down Mochi Cake we loved it so the food was definitely a highlight.
Everything was clean well maintained the room was a comfortable size and like I said a great bed they only provided towels every other day so be ready to ask for them if you need them daily also the pool was pretty much always in the shade so it was cold in the water and not a great spot for sun bathing the beach towels are by request at the front desk. The Tv was a massive pain in my neck as it was hard to connect to my streaming service and it was hard the entire stay.
The location is great close to the beach shopping and every kind of food option you can imagine all in walking distance.
I don’t think you can find a better place for the money it’s really a gem of a place thank you to the entire staff.

The staff of the hotel was very friendly in the lobby and room service. The rooms were very clean.

One of the older valet men was extremely rude and combative. He almost made me feel as if I owed him something to work. He ignored me while waiting to get my vehicle and still ignored me once I was politely asking him if he had heard me and was needing anything from me.

The hotel was beautiful and very central and in walking distance to a lot in Waikiki.

The breakfast was great; great chef, knowledgeable and polite waiter.

However, I noticed that the waiter was working alone and could not assist guests fast enough as he was going back and forth between the dining area and kitchen. I saw at least two groups leave during my stay because of the waiting time.

In my opinion,least two staff people should be in the dining area to better assist guests.

Overall, our stay was great and the propels walking distance to dining and the beach.

They did a beautiful job in renovating and styling this hotel which is centrally located in Waikiki. The room was very comfortable and they have done a great job on creating a nice atmosphere for the pool even though it's wedged between a group of tall buildings.
There was a beautiful restaurant downstairs that is very high end compared to the hotel being a mid-level cost, so didn't really feel like they were trying to cater to their guests. It would have been nice if they offered a breakfast menu and also pub style dinner menu.
The Lei Stand cocktail bar looks like a nice establishment, only problem was that it was like a refrigerator in there which was very uninviting. Would have been nice if they opened up the doors to the outside patio to let the warm air in and for it to be visible to people walking by. They kind missed the mark on these 2 aspect, but other than that, the hotel was very nice and a very comfortable stay.

The hotel is at the perfect location, literally across the street from the international market place…walking distance to great shops, food, and the beach! The hotel lobby was small and dimly lit, but there is a restaurant and bar on the property. The rooms were standard. Nothing too special, but got the job done. There were also inconsistencies. For example, we had connecting rooms and one had a bidet in the bathroom, while the other did not. If you plan on parking, just note that it is valet only.

Breakfast selection was phenomenal and portions were very reasonable. Hotel is open area other than the lobby and your own room. We went to the bar on a Friday night and the DJ was awesome, great vibe. Tried the 855-ALOHA restaurant on a Tuesday night and it was half full. Wait time for service and meals was almost nonexistent. Food was honestly the best tasting meal we had in our entire 10 day stay. Fresh and high quality meals all around. Housekeeping was done every other day and I was told they would provide fresh towels and bedding as well and clean out any trash. Towels were always fresh but I’m almost certain the bedding was not changed, they only made up the bed. All staff were wonderful and communication was impeccable. Valet is pricey but really worth it to avoid parking headaches! Location is great, lots to do within walking distance (2-30minute walk). Would love to come back and would definitely recommend to friends and family :)

They were all great, what made it even better was that the hotel room was renovated and all the power outlets are updated so you can charge many electronics at the same time. We have stayed at different hotels before but this one was a hidden gem. We did not use their pool, but it looked really nice. My kids loved the hotel as well, stayed with a total of 7 people. 3 adults and 4 children all the kids were always on the WiFi so had no issues or complaints from any of them. Really recommend this location. What I found most helpful that you can contact the receptionist by text and they respond very quickly with any questions or concerns.

We won’t be returning to this hotel. It was our second time there, and we had a great time the first time. However, our last stay was not as pleasant.

The biggest complaint I have is the shower. The design is a major flaw. The door shower only covers less than halfway, which means water splashes everywhere, including the toilet and floors. If you’re using the toilet while someone else is in the shower, you’ll get soaked.

I was hoping to get a complimentary upgrade since I’m an Expedia Gold member, but that didn’t happen even though the larger rooms were available. The experience was not the same.

I won’t be staying there again.

The Romer House Hotel is a smaller hotel located on a busy street near the International Market. The pros: good location to walk around to many stores, restaurants, beach etc. If you're driving, there an many nearby highway entrances. The hotel itself is dated, but there were major upgrades made. They offer valet parking for a fee, which was convenient, considering parking is difficult to find for overnight stays (we were here for 7 days). There is a restaurant and 'bar' on-site. The pool deck is clean, but I thought the pool was too narrow and shallow. Cons: very active and noisy street. AC units were challenging to control and keep running through the night. It was very damp in the bathrooms and the bath towels just wouldn't dry up for every night's wash. Lastly, the rug in both rooms were very dirty. I was not happy seeing my kiddos dirty feet. After the 1st night, we showered every night and wore our flipflops while lounging around the room
