The Kalua Room was located at the Windsor Hotel, on the corner of 6th & Union in downtown Seattle. At one point, there was a second location for the Kalua Room, at the Governor Hotel in Olympia, WA.

This 1950's postcard from the Seattle location shows a closer view of the orchid waterfall, as well as visitors enjoying tropical drinks from the Kalua Room signature drink mug, and dinner menus prominently displayed on each table.
