10/10 Exceptional

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!

An Oasis on Waikiki

Mine was an unexpected stay since I missed my flight to Guam and was a last minute booking. Desk staff was awesome and the hotel is a bit smaller than its peers near Diamond Head -- just what I wanted. Peaceful, welcoming and the view over the jade expanse was a bonus during my short stay. My only regret is that I didn't have time to surf...east coasters really cherish these waters!

Beautiful Hotel

The hotel lobby was gorgeous, very friendly staff. My room was beautiful, with a pretty view of the ocean. There is only one restaurant that offers dinner only.

Quieter option with a view of the sea

Very comfortable stay with no issues at all. Friendly staff and at a low key hotel in a convenient location--could walk to Diamond Head--and the public beach next door was perfect. So glad we kept our distance from the big and crowded hotels at Waikiki.

Marlon, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The nearby beach access was good. Staff is friendly and it’s clean. But paying extra for “ocean view” is not worth it. There’s another building in the way and every room basically can see a sliver of the ocean without the extra cost.

Didn’t like it much. Not convenient. Needs a serious update to rooms.
