The room had great views and had wonderful amenities like a bathrobe and water bottle. Beach chairs, towels and bikes were readily available. The location was great, right across from the park and far enough away from the craziness of Waikiki, but close enough to walk there in a flash.

Broken floor tiles in room, dirty grout, place itself is nice location. View was fabulous. Front desk staff was nice. Elevator went out on last day of stay so had to walk up and down 8 flights but they offered to help with bags. Seems like they are trying with what they have but it was a lot to pay for the level of experience.

The hotel offers direct access to the beach, just a few minutes’ walk away. I had a wonderful stay there—it’s quiet and much less crowded, which made it very relaxing. Waikiki Beach and the International Market Place are both within a comfortable 10–18 minute walk. The hotel service is excellent. Although the room safe was not working, it was a minor issue and didn’t affect my overall experience. I will choose this hotel in my next trip.

We had a fantastic stay at the Lotus Honolulu at Diamond Head. The front desk staff was outstanding—warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful both during check-in and throughout our visit. They gave us excellent recommendations for delicious local meals and great spots to explore nearby.
The hotel’s location is ideal—just steps from a beautiful beach. We loved that the hotel provided beach chairs and towels, which made it easy to relax and enjoy the ocean.
We enjoyed our stay so much that we tried to extend it, but the hotel was fully booked, so we’ll just have to come back next time. Looking forward to our next visit!
