Lotus Honolulu at Diamond Head

Our stay has been beyond our expectations. Great location and grounds. Accommodations were exceptional and staff were fantastic. We will be returning in April and can’t wait to enjoy this fabulous destination with our family and friends.

This really was walkable to Waikiki (good sidewalks/trails, lighting, lots of people) and we did it multiple times. We were glad we stayed here for the calm of it. The park across the street truly is used by the community area, but we saw tourists walking/running all hours of day there too. We stayed in an ocean view premium room. I probably would have upgraded to corner for $30/night given the chance again. The view of Diamond Head was cool for sunrise/sunset from the lanai, and also outside our room door the day/night views of Honolulu were both cool. It wasn't a straight view to the ocean but you could see it enough we enjoyed it. Surprisingly big room. I did not see fridge or microwave on listing when I booked, but we had both. Robes and slippers too. In case you're wondering like I did, the toiletries provided were shampoo, conditioner, body wash, face wipe/makeup remover, cottonball and qtips. Enough towels and they were changed every day. We did use the laundry, it's in a locked room, and saw several other guests using it too, but we did not have to wait. We bought soap from front desk for $1/load. We always were able to get beach chairs and towels. I'd say it's more than 60 steps to the beach but it was close and we didn't have trouble finding spots to sit. It's a small beach though, so not for if you like to go for walks on the beach. There were some visible things that could use freshening up, but I considered it all clean. I would stay here again.

Excellent service and a very nice hotel in a nice, quiet location. We stayed in an ocean view room, and enjoyed watching sunrise over Diamond Head and the sunset over the ocean. Yes there are some buildings that obscure a bit, but we still very much enjoyed the ocean view. Brandon the manager, and Ann at check in were very friendly and went above and beyond every day, remembering us and helping out. We had a very small issue with the bikes and Brandon was so appreciative of the small work my husband did on them, he gave us a very nice thank you dinner credit! We loved using the bikes to tour Waikiki! Arden Restaurant food was amazing, and the staff from the very friendly hostess to the waiters and John were incredibly helpful and friendly. Our waiter Josaio, sorry if that’s spelled incorrectly, was very thorough and helpful in explaining meals and wines. 10 out of 10 for the staff!

Very nice place, very nice people. Quiet location out of the hustle and bustle of Waikiki, but still within easy walking distance. And for fellow Elks, almost next door to the amazing Honolulu Elks Club! Also took advantage of the on-site HUI car rental service -- check it out online.

This hotel is honestly the best location ,hospitality accommodations and luxury you could ask for. Close enough to all that goes on in Waikiki without being in all the noise. We are lifelong visitors and former residents. We will return many times
