The Hawaiian Monarch is an older building in a fabulous location. Nobu is an excellent and attentive host and the room reflects the building. Which suits us just fine. The room is small but adequate for a couple or single. If you have done any research you already know this is a budget option but good value. The money you save staying here is more money for your vacation activity which are all within easy walk to this location. And the pizza from the lobby will quickly make you forget any downsides you might perceive (we didn’t notice anything significant). We would stay there again.
