The Royal Hawaiian Hotel is approximately 12 miles from the Honolulu International Airport. It is also two miles from Diamond Head and five miles from downtown Honolulu. Guests are just steps from a private stretch of beautiful beach. There are four excellent onsite drinking and dining establishments, including the Surf Room, which serves seafood on the beach.
